Spent 2 bights. And ended up paying 800 pesos for parking. Cause first day parking they use was full. Cost me 500 pesos first night. Second night. Parked on where your suppose to park. Did it and. They did not validate my parking cause. You have to validate within15 minutes you arrive. So cost me 380 pesos for second night parking

We stayed 1 night and put our backpacks in our friends room because they were staying another night. The evening front desk staff kicked us out due to the hotels "no guest" policy. The daytime staff already approved an exception to the policy because we were guests and they had copies of our IDs from the previous night and we were leaving after dinner. The evening front desk guy came to my friends room and told us we had to leave. My friend was in the bathroom and we told him we are all checking out and leaving as soon as he's out of the bathroom. This guys would not leave until my friend literally flung opened the bathroom door while he was on the toilet and yelled at the guy that "we are all leaving after I'm done on the toilet!" Only then did this guy leave the room. Just the worst CS ever. These people have no clue about making a judgement call. We are not partying or make noise or causing trouble. We were just sitting in the room waiting to digest our dinner so we could get on the road without any problems.

I have stayed at Rio Rita before and this was my 2nd time staying here. This time the customer service by the front desk staff was absolutely the worst ever. We had 2 rooms, 1 for 2 nights and 1 for 1 night. My friends staying 1 night checked out of their room after 1 night and put their backpacks in our room until they were leaving after dinner. We went out for lunch and when we returned the front desk stopped my 2 friends from coming up to our room due to a hotel policy not allowing "guests" in rooms. I spoke to the 3 front desk staff and the valet guy, who translated because he spoke perfect english. I explained to them that my 2 friends were guest last night and they have copies of their IDs and are not just random people off the street. They are just staying with us until they leave after dinner. After discussing this and explaining that I am a repeat customer, they said they would make an exception to the hotel policy. Everything was fine until we came back after dinner and went to the room to get their bags so they could depart. Again, the new desk staff tried to stop us from going up to the room and we had the same argument with them. We told them we already got permission from the day staff and they need to communicate better within their team members. We told them we are just going upstairs to get out stuff. 5 minutes later the front desk guy came up and told my friends that they need to leave. Unbelievable! We cancelled our trip and we all left. RioRita=Horrible CS

First time stay here and for the price of the room, you can't find a better place. Very clean and convenient located rightin the middle of Revolucion and a about 2 blocks from Zona Norte. The room albeit small was perfect for that one night stay. I had only one mishap and that my room didn't have a blanket. Staff did bring one to me. But great stay. O i forgot to mention there is a nice bar on the 2nd floor with a great balcony view of the street life. Nice TV and heat lamps to keep you warm.
