Marhialja Hotel Boutique

size of room, tasty breakfast

Hotel entrance was locked throughout. Had to rattle a wrought iron gate and wait to be heard before the staff would unlock a cheap locker-type lock to let us in. Asked for a key to the lock but was refused. When we first arrived the desk clerk did not want to unlock the wrought iron door and admit us. I pleaded that "tenemos una reservation, my nombre is David, etc, My wife waved a printed itinerary of our trip with the hotel name on it, Still denied entry. A neighbor joined us and spoke with the fearful desk clerk (a fifteen-year old girl) and finally we were admitted. We were assigned a room described as having a courtyard view. The courtyard was a parking lot with cars parked closely to our ground floor window. We asked for and received a better room which proved large and comfortable but had no window. Locked in below without a window above equals high fire danger. There are only three rooms at this hotel We stayed four nights with no other guests in evidence.

Close to Zocalo and other city sights. Large room, pretty quiet given location close to busy area. Bathtub as shown, lots of hot water.

Breakfasts were just okay, asked for yogurt after being served it once, but never had it again. Other guests bought avocados for toast and had it served to me as well. Chairs were uncomfortable, for dining not relaxing in room.

Good furniture to be comfortable. Breakfast was good but too much food. Adjustments could be made.

The front grill gate was always padlocked so you had to get a person to come out and unlock it.

The location was fine

the breakfast was below every expectation. made in a microwave, and extremely watery coffee. the price was very high compared to the services the gate was closed all the time, so you need to ask for entrance or leaving phones ringing during the night that no one answered. doubt about if people were there at night in case of an emergence.

Big bedroom and bathroom with tub, comfortable bed, reasonably quiet

Absolutely no ambience! No courtyard/ communal area; breakfast area is right outside bedrooms , fortunately we were the only guests so it wasn’t noisy in the mornings. No eggs or yogurt at breakfast - we had to eat out! Close to Zocalo but not a great street to be staying in . Over-priced for what was offered ; would not recommend

The location is amazing. Just 1 block from the Zocalo and the markets. Veronica and Mara are wonderful, helping us with everything. Also, the breakfast with fresh juice and fruit and a variety of local swishes is delicious! The bed and pillows are perfect for a restful sleep. It’s also very quiet.

lovely small hotel with very large wonderful rooms. Breakfast and staff are amazing!

due to central location there is noise from the street and if you are a light sleeper that could be a problem. The bathroom has a tub which makes it a little complicated to just take a shower because you have to get into this tub/ jacuzzi by going up a step or two

The staff and location were stellar

Breakfast was subpar ( microwaved food) and the shower was hard to access. We called it the tub of death. A soaker tub with a step on outside that made for a huge step down into a wet slippery tub—- what could go wrong?
