I enjoyed my stay. It's a 3 min walk to Mercado 20 de Noviembre and 15 min walk to Zocalo. Taxis drive by every 2 mins if you prefer them. There's a convenience store next door in case you need snacks. There's NO AC but the room has a window that you can crack open. This place is affordable and perfect if you're mostly going to be out the entire day taking on tourbuses like me.

Its a nice hotel, clean, very friendly staff but if you get a room as I facing the road that are in some times of the night well trafficked and trucks that unload goods just across the street. Earplugs could be a good thing for those who are sensitive. No hot water some evenings in the shower but for me okay taking a cold one but just to mention.

Ok hotel

The hotel is in a sketchy area and since I arrived at night I did not want to go out at night. The rooms were clean and one was spacious and the other one was smaller and had an awkward shape. The walls were extra thin and the hotel was noisy early in the morning.

A basic standard room at a great price. The room was very clean and a wonderful staff. Only issue I had was having to wait 20 minutes for hot water on one of my five days.

Great place to stay for Day of the Dead!

The location of Hotel Isabela 1 is within walking distance to the Zocolo and the various shopping markets. Hotel is very clean, beds are very firm but, all beds in Mexico appear to be that way. Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are quite large and a good value for the money. Great location to stay for celebrating Day of the Dead!

Clean, Decent but intermittent hot water.

This is a decent hotel for the price however the room is very cold at night; has insufficient bedding for the winter and only one out of three days did I get warm water for a shower. I had to wear several (4-5) layers of clothing to sleep and then had to grit my teeth through a lukewarm/cool shower for two of my three days here. That being said the condition of the room is very good and it is clean. It is probably a better choice for a stay in warmer months. However... the other guests here can be very loud and it being in a busy market area it can also be noisy at night.

Hotel aceptable a buen precio.

Un hotel aceptable. Se ve que fue uno de los primeros con bonitos acabados aunque ya denota lo antiguo. Aún así lo tienen limpio y bien cuidado. En general todo bien, lamentablemente no me di cuenta de que no había agua caliente hasta que fue la hora de bañarme para tomar mi vuelo. Les comenté eso en recepción y se disculparon. Revisen todo para que les puedan solucionar. Muy atentos. A contra esquina hay una pequeña zona roja pero nada de precaución.

No colocan amenidades de baño completas, solo jabón de baño, la recepción no es la adecuada en la noche tuvimos que esperar hasta 15 minutos para que nos abrieran, además que es una zona un poco insegura y si es indispensable revisen lo de la recepción por seguridad de los huéspedes
