Hotel Amigo (Mexico City)

In looking for the hostel of the same name I mistakenly walked into this place which is right next door. Honestly, there is not too much difference between the two save for the boisterous imbibing of tequila and revelry and, perhaps, a younger clientele.

This much I found out from the friendly and professional front desk before finding out that I was at the wrong front desk:

• single room costs $160mxn (just ten pesos more than a dorm room in Hostel Amigo!)


• shower was down the hall although some rooms have private facilities but cost more.


• no free Internet or breakfast


• bright and clean looking lobby


• restaurant on premises

Hotel Amigo appeared to be a nice choice for different people travelling together like, say, parents with teenage or older children. Those wanting a calm hotel stay might opt for this place while those comfortable with the backpacking mix might prefer the hostel next door.
