"Staff at the bar were too busy chatting with each other to serve us. Elevators were down and we had to use the service elevators a few times. The 19% VAT charge at the restaurant was insane!"

"Great location if you’re wanting Roma/Condesa area. It’s on a quiet street and very clean. Doors lock at 22:00 and there’s a 24hr doorman. It’s also one block away from the Hop on Hop off bus which is the reason I chose it. I would stay again, if I want to stay in Roma."
