Very quiet but a cool place to stay with lovely staff who went to a big effort to suggest things and book a few tours for us.

Really great, central hostel. Area was quiet but felt safe. Loved the rooftop with amazing city views, our room (private) was a great size and included tv and powerful overhead fan. Kitchen was well equipped, although things like salt, oil and coffee are not provided. The separate dining room was a nice space as well. The staff were really friendly and helpful. As others have said, not very sociable. Also, our room opened directly onto reception area, which was always occupied.

This place doesn't offer special rates for long-term stays, so most guests are tourists, not locals. Ask about tours; my favorite is the one to Mazamitla. English-speaking guides will pick you up at the hostel door at no additional cost.

This hostel was way too quiet for me. I stayed for two weeks and I was the only person in the 8 bed room that whole time. I hated it because I go to hostels to socialize. Others might love it. The location is good. The staff were helpful. The light in the room is too dim so it was hard to read. The kitchen is good. One advantage over other hostels is that I did not have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to my room.

Very comfortable and quiet place. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms clean and the hostel had a cool vibe. Not a social hostel was very quiet most of the time.

Das Hostel hat einen schöne Dachterasse und der Besitzer hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegebene einem Tips und Infos zu der Stadt zu geben.

The beds here are amazing - so big and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and booked us into a tequila tour. We were only here for a couple of nights on a quick stop so it didn’t matter too much to us but there was quite a lack of atmosphere in the hostel.

Hostel bien situé et personnel sympathique. Les lits sont grands malheureusement j'ai eu la surprise de trouver une punaise de lit dans mon sac après mon passage chez eux. Également la douche ne fonctionnait pas dans mon dortoir il fallait donc traverser tout le hall pour aller se doucher. Le rez de chaussée est très sombre et il n'y avait pas grand monde quand je suis venue, ça fait une atmosphère bizarre. Ils proposent une navette pour aller à l'aéroport.
