Hostal Montejo

It is a silent hostel (hence the rating for meeting people), however, for me this is a positive not a negative. The host was extremely helpful, to the point of even cutting out vouchers for me to get into places I wanted to visit for less. He provided excellent advice for visiting places. It is not in the main touristy location and you need to take the Metro to get there, but again, for me, I did not think this was a problem. It is near a extremely nice cafe district (where you stop for coffee on the way to the Metro).

Fantastic place. Aaron was hugely helpful in suggesting things to see and helping us organise how to get there and when to go, including public transport/taxis etc. It is not right next to public transport but it is not difficult to get anywhere you want to go with Aaron's clear instructions. Rooms are big and there is a big garden, The hostel is also decorated nicely and there is a huge TV screen. I recommend it.

The most important and valuable "thing" in this hostel was the owner who was so kind to take his own time to indicate to us everyday what was the best thing to do: his knowledge of the city and his helpfulness allowed us to enjoy our trip at its most. He also recommended good places to eat which gave us good chances to taste local food. However, hot water was not available every moment, but the owner attempted to solve our problems as soon as possible. We highly recommend this hostel if you'd like to stay in a clean and quiet place.

This is a beautiful residential home which has been converted to a lovely hostel. The owner is the most informative and helpful person I have ever experienced at a hostel! It makes such a difference! Straightforward access to centre of town and bars/restaurant areas, in case you dont mind a tiny bit of a walk. Only downside is the lack of kitchen or television etc. They have been hit hard by swine flu and have had to cut back. Besides that a beautiful stay in an amazing city!

Nice noiseless hostal which is extremely clean and secure. Aaron was a wonderful source of info about his country. He saved us lots of time and money by helping us each day with our itineries and how to get places easily using public transport. He helped us decide what to do inside the rest of Mexico and assisted us with bookings. Fantastic service. We stayed an extra night and have booked to return hear at he end of our trip.
