Novo Coapa

A friend booked this hotel for me because it was close to his house and he was going to be showing me around. The hotel is not in the heart of the city or the main tourist areas, but for my trip it was convenient. The area is much more residential and stores than touristy. There is a bus stop right in front of the hotel and a small shopping area across the street with a grocery store, clothing store, a few counter service food options, and a few other small shops. Two blocks away there is a large shopping mall and there are a few restaurants nearby. I stayed for 5 nights. The room had a modern feel and was clean and comfortable. The shower was very nice, good water pressure, very big, always hot water. Two of the nights it did get a little bit noisy, but not enough so that I couldn't get to sleep, but a very light sleeper might have had trouble. I paid in cash because in order to pay credit card I would have had to pay each day instead of all at once and I decided cash up front would be easier. And I was supposed to return my key to the front desk when I left the hotel, but they really didn't seem to care if I returned the key when I ran out for dinner or to do some quick shopping. I did find out after that they typically book rooms for the day, so that may explain the policies on payment and key use. Apparently my friend didn't realize that at the time he booked it for me.
