Overall Ratings & Reviews Casa Castillo

Great place to stay in Mexico City for a few days

A great building, nicely curated inside. However our room had a lot of street noise & could use better black-out curtains. Bed was small and room lacked enough pillows. Front desk was manned by security guard who was mildly helpful when requested water bittle for 2nd night.

This property is extremely safe- ring bell to enter and no keys for room doors. You have a code. It’s very clean for an older hotel- even the hanging lamps were dusted ! The staff was very friendly and helpful- let us check in early, watched our luggage both before checking in and the day we checked out. Definitely is worth way more than we were charged- great job all around!!!

Casa Castillo is great if looking for a budget hotel in the heart of Mexico City. It was perfect for my stay.

Excelent

Very noisy facing a main street, location was good for our needs, neighbourhood was great, room was great but small

We loved this little boutique apartment-hotel! It is quaint but updated and has a lot of character. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is in a safe and convenient area of town, right across the street from a little convenience store where we could purchase water and simple snacks. One block from nice coffee shops, ATMs, and a couple of blocks from a small grocery store. We had a 2-bedroom apartment that comfortably slept 5 people (1 bedroom had king-size bed and own bathroom, second bedroom had queen bed, another queen bed in main social area and a second bathroom) with a little kitchenette. The listing wasn't clear on number of bathrooms so we were happy to find there were 2 of them. It was lovely, very clean and very comfortable; the furnishings looked new and updated. The listing for the apartment said it had a twin pull-out sofa too, but it was actually tiny and could only work as a bed for a child, This was not a problem for us as we were only 5 adults, but it certainly wouldn't accommodate 7 adults. The only minor issue we had was that the air conditioner started making loud noises and leaking in the middle of our second night there; we had to turn it off. But they sent someone to look at it that same day. Weather cooled down on the 3rd night so we didn't need to turn it on again. Do keep in mind that this is a 3-story building with no elevator, so if you have issues with stairs, request a ground-level room. The bigger apartments are on the top floors.

This is a great place to stay.

This is the perfect little hotel except for one fatal issue: It is located directly across the street from the loading docks of a major hotel/conference center. Trucks with idling engines, refrigeration units, etc. are backing into the bays at all hours of the night. It’s loud non-stop. I could not sleep well for three nights. Too bad because the staff is very nice and accomodating, the hotel itself is great and the location very good, otherwise, wedged between Reforma and Polanco.

The room doesn't have Any air conditioning. Only a fan per room.

Nice

Good: people at the desk were friendly and the room was reasonably clean. Now the bad...The spouts spat at us regularly; water shoots all over the place- several times per day.Worst is that owner isn't a normal human. We had the room for 6 days straight and then learned there would be a major snowstorm on our return and getting stuck in the airport for the night on our way back was going to be real, so we asked about extending for one day at same rate from our 6 day stay. They would not do this for us. It's theirs and they can do what they want, but in 20 plus years of travel, I've never met an owner who wouldn't accomodate a long-term traveler in some reasonable way until now. Rooms available, so space not an issue. So as to not spend hours moving, we booked an extra night with them online. We were again charged the cleaning rate of 222 MXN, plus the daily rate was higher, so in the end, we paid around 340 MXN (about $20 USD) above original rate; stayed in the same room. Never any talk about rebating the cleaning fee. I WOULD NOT stay here again because if a business can't treat its clients as human, they won't receive my money. I hope the reader considers this review in deciding about Casa Castillo. Please spend your money with truly human owners. I hope our extra $20 USD and this review is worth it to Casa Castillo!!

I loved the room and the staff, in particular, Juan Carlos. The room had an espresso machine, mini refrigerator and an induction cooktop. Plus dishes and silverware if needed. The room was like new and very clean, the staff was attentive and location was great for me. I would stay there again for sure.

Everything was wonderful, staff were so friendly and helpful. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Easy access to everything. Would definitely stay there again. Was very charming. Only one complaint, water truck across the street was so noisy everyday!!
