Was very impressed with the room. Had many small details that mattered to me like the full size fridge, a cutting board, a blender, Tupperware containers, plates, glasses, and even a frying pan for the electric range top. The room also had a safe and which worked perfectly and in room WiFi router. Sofía is a great place for to stay. The rooftop garden/pool area was amazing.
Room was great. Front desk staff and cleaning staff were fantastic. In fact all staff are fantastic. They were personable helpful and just overall great. Pool was great too. Everything was clean and smelled great. Lots of hot water. A/c was cold. Area was good it’s far enough from the touristy areas to not be bothered by noise n whatnot but close enough to walk to 5th in maybe 10-15 mins if you chose. Great bakery n pizza across the street and tacos close by. Oxxo 7-11 and a six all close by and the mega is one block away. Would stay here again 100%
Excellent front desk staff great rooms rooftop amaZing

Liked: Cleanliness
The shower water pressure is super low, cannot take the shower everyday, and the neighbors are super noisy. But everything else is good for short stay.
This is a great place to stay!
I liked the room with kitchenette, balcony and modern bathroom.
Hotel staff is awesome!
10 minutes walk to the beach and beach clubs, tourist mile with lots of stores and restaurants, right before the beach.
The highlight is the rooftop pool!
Beautiful view and very relaxing up there.
Perfect if you travel with someone.
Female solo travelers, spend the extra money and stay at the Expedia gated Beach resorts.
Clean, comfortable and fully equipped within the room. Professional staff very welcome and kind. We stayed 1 night first of qll but ended up staying about 9?
Hope to return. It is 5 minutes walk into the busy strip where there is plenty of bars and restaurants.
The room was clean and well maintained. The staff was amazing; courteous, helpful, and personable. I really enjoyed my stay and I look forward to coming back soon!
Nice room, nice staff, not as close to beaches as others but still very walkable. One thing that would be nice is a water cooler or similar so as to have a better way for guests to buy water for themselves.
