What to do in Mexico City
Admission to Six Flags Mexico with roundtrip transportation
"Convenient location attached by a walkway to Terminal 1 (note: there is a tram between Terminal 1 & 2 that is easy to use.) The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean, water pressure in the shower is not that strong, the gym was nice, elevators were quick, and breakfast was very good. The personalized taxi transport was very good and reasonably priced. We felt very safe in the hotel and had a wonderful time."
"The only thing I didn’t like was that the airport shuttle only takes 8 people per hour. That’s one of the main reasons I chose that hotel, but they couldn’t provide the service when I needed it because they only accommodate 8 passengers each hour."
"The quality of the room in terms of being clean and visually esthetic was excellent. In addition to it, the customer service was amazing. We had to be in the airport at 5am and the shuttle of the hotel picked us on time and gave us an excellent service."
