"How did it strike you on arrival?If the bright blue façade didn't tip you off that this place has pizzaz, take note of the opulent and inviting entrance–complete with Art Deco-style doors, blue-and-white tiled floors, and stained-glass windows. Nice. What’s the crowd like?Expect a crowd of thirty-something young professional couples from the U.S. and Europe who are ready to explore the city. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.The rooms are all suites, set around a two-story inner courtyard, with bright, street-art-style murals covering the walls. Each room has a kitchenette and country-cottage-chic interiors. There are no TVs, but who has time for the Kardashians when there's so much to see and do? We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?The beds are Goldilocks-approved and there is a selection of pillows, from hypoallergenic to memory foam. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.Sorry tub lovers: The bathrooms only have showers. But the solid water pressure (impressive for a hotel in the middle of one of the world's most populated cities) certainly makes up for it. Maybe the most important topic of all: Wi-Fi. What’s the word?Wi-Fi is free and works well throughout the hotel. Room service: Worth it?There's no room service, but guests can sit in at the on-site restaurant (open from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.). The menu is a mix of Mexican and international dishes and there's live music on the terrace on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.The terrace is a perfectly low-lit, atmospheric spot to enjoy a cocktail after a day of sightseeing. What was most memorable—or heartbreaking—about your stay?Breakfast on the terrace with a view of blooming Jacaranda trees—the way every day should start, right? Bottom line: worth it, and why?The location is great, the design is thoughtful, and the vibe is relaxed." - Susannah Rigg
