“Noisy, but excellent location and cheap”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2011

person found this review helpful

Source of noise was from inside of the hotel. Windows open to internal halls and every conversation (or activity), even in other rooms, can be heard loud and clear. At least ceiling fan was quiet.
The location next to zocalo is very convenient and the price of the room was right. Some rooms are VERY small. I asked to change my room to bigger and they did it. Free internet is a plus and it worked in my room on the third floor.

“Very Noisy, very stuffy”

This hotel probably should be avoided. The rooms are noisy and none of our windows opened out onto the street. Instead, they opened into the hallway. We only picked it because it was near the center of town.

“Well, depends what do you want for your trip!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 April 2011

This hotel is good with the people over there as they are really nice and try to get help even though they don't speak English.

“Noisy noisy nosy! Avoid it!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2011

6 square meters dark rooms
with the only one window on the hotel aisle.
No fresh air, no light, but only a lot of noise..you con listen to eveyone passing in front of your room and the only one possibility to have some some privacy is to.close the courtains .
The price you pay is an offence!
You just pay the very central location, for sure not the possibility to sleep, as you won't!

“Hotel Gala a good call”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2009

We stayed three nights at the Gala after fleeing from Hotel Mariposa.

Small doesn't begin to describe the rooms. You have to step outside to change your mind. Actually, I couldn't believe they crammed a bathroom into a closet. Had to damn near sit sideways on the toilet.

That said, the value and location are excellent. Good fair price, clean rooms with TV. It is right on the zocalo and many nearby restaurants. Staff is good and helpful.

Despite the small rooms, definitely recommend. You can do a lot worse for about the same money.
