I visited a friendwho was staying there. The hostel is nice and the staff was friendly.
Cuartos, salas y baños de media calidad. Aparentemente todo limpio. Si vas de paso por una o dos noches está bien, más que nada por la ubicación.
Excelente lugar para vivir ya que también hay lofts
Muy bonito hostel, la habitación es pequeña pero cumple con lo requerido, cuenta con agua caliente, toallas limpias , shampoo y jabón, t.v. por cable, internet. La atención es muy amable por parte de los de recepción. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
Great place to stay if you are in a budget, cheap with breakfast and close to the city, my only complaint is that is get very loud during the business hours due to traffic and the noise from the buses outside. Once in a while you have to look for mosquitos! To me was worth what I paid
Great prices, clean rooms, friendly staff, but above all great location! Will stay again.
Clean room with a bed. Check in staff was friendly and helped me to find the stores I needed. Shower in room was cold but the one on 2nd floor (communal) was ok. If looking for simple and inexpensive you found it. If looking for more than.absolute basic.keep looking. The lock on my door worked and I felt that I was safe while there and my belongings were safe when I wasn't.
Great place to stay in. Friendly staff and very convenient location. #hightimes #partyanimal #hotdogs
Historic downtown with the imposing Guadalajara Cathedral, Teatro Degollado & sprawling markets.
