Emplacement
L'établissement n'a pas de parking alors qu'il ressort lorsqu'on sélectionne le critère parking. Cela est trompeur et mensonger ! Il faut aller dans un parking payant à plusieurs centaines de mètres de l'hôtel. CET ÉTABLISSEMENT NE DOIT PLUS APPARAÎTRE QUAND ON SÉLECTIONNE UN HÔTEL AVEC PARKING À GUANAJUATO. A part ça c'est correct.
No breakfast. Coffee setup great. Loved the location.
Liked as is.
Muy buena ubicación A unos cuantos pasos se encuentran muchos puntos turísticos importantes, lugares para comer y donde pasar el rato.
Cuarto muy pequeño Es muy pequeño para el precio, poco ventilado y poca iluminación.
La comodidad de la cama y ubicación
Por su cercania al centro y naturaleza de la habitación hay algunos de ruido por las noches.
Ubicaciob
Falta de limpieza en sofá almohadas y colchas
Había café agua y galletas gratis en la estancia También plancha y secadora,. Me. Gustaron esos detalles
Magnífico que haya café de cortesía.
Almohadas más cómodas.
Location and size
El peor servicio, tomamos 3 habitaciones y de las cuales se se fueron de imprevisto 2 un día antes, sus llaves la dejé en mi habitación (aún con todas mis cosas), ya que no pudieron revisar bien sus pertenencias, cuando regrese de acompañarlos me habían retirado las llaves de las 2 habitaciones, avían sacado unas de las cosas que dejamos dentro y las habitaciones ya las tenían listas para otros huéspedes.
La ubicación
Instalaciones viejas. Descuidado para el precio. Pague por un futón para comodidad y no existía tal. Era un solo mini colchón sucio abajo de una cama.
La ubicacion y tranquilidad
El personal muy amable, aclara todas las dudas. Tiene todo lo que uno necesita para sentirse como en casa.
No hubo nada que me desagradara
Location is great!
Nothing
There was nothing I like. Everything had something wrong.
Everything! Was bad.
Location is amazing!
It is not modern, however i understand that and loved it! 10/10 recommend !
The place is very clean and everybody is very kind. The location is the best in the heart of the city.
There is NO PARKING!!! There are public 24 hours parking places for about 1.5 dollars per hour, in about 200 meters close. However, it is not comfortable at all to walk this distance with all the luggage and sometimes they have no room for more cars. This is the best place if you want to visit the city and you DO NOT TRAVEL with your car, but not the best if you travel with car and a lot of luggage.
The staff at these Lunian properties are great. Especially Marta and Manuel. Comfortable beds, quiet small street without cars. Plenty hot water, but shower was pretty small and they only gave one hand towel and one washcloth. But lots of bath towels. We also stayed at one of their properties next door to this one which was also great and had a large shower. Near lots of restaurants and shops in Centro.
Great locale.
Could be better kept, and have more human interaction...
Only 5 rooms in total and all in the first floor. The room space is small. The position is nice.
The area looks small but surprisingly it is spacious
Best place I visited in mexico
the location is great in between the market and the plaza
I saw cockroaches in the bathroom
Lovely small hotel tucked into a great location. My room had a beautiful niche with two metal star decorations with lighting at night- gorgeous!
グアナファトで数少ない駐車場提携ホテル 歩いて9分の駐車場が 1日24Hで 250MXN。 隣接のカフェが夜10時まで空いており、夜10時までは、問題なく入れるが、それより遅くなる時は、What'sAppでオーナーと連絡を取り、 ドアロックの暗証番号をチェックイン時に問い合わせること。 チェックイン時に掃除の方しか居なかったが、What'sAppでやり取りする事で、駐車場の場所も教えて貰えた。 英語可。
We are a great 2 night stay there and location was great. The manager was very helpful with everything and available for any questions all the time.
I came across 2 cockroaches in my room which made me feel very uncomfortable for the entire stay. The floor and sheets also didn’t seem clean. The entire set up with no reception made things awkward - you only communicate with the hotel through WhatsApp which is confusing. Considering how much I paid for this room, it really wasn’t worth it.
I liked that it was very safe didn’t like how cramped upbit was
I arrived after the reception desk was closed. The directions I received via What's App on how to access the key to my room were very clear, including a video. At 7:30 pm, when I arrived, there was singing and music from the street outside my window. There was hot water in the morning for tea. No refrigerator in the room, but I could put milk outside on the window ledge at night. There aren't a ton of amenities, but the place has charm. My room had only one lock, operated by an old-fashioned and quirky key (you wouldn't want to be stuck in the room in case of fire), but I enjoyed my stay and would go back, hoping I got a room with a window.
Location
They had a problem with small cockroaches, I saw like three, they tried to fix the problem.
El Viejo Zaguan is located only steps away from Diego Rivera’s house & other art museums. There is an adjoining cafe, which I did not use, but which seemed very nice. The room had two double beds, an entire suite bathroom & shower (with plenty of hot water), a safe for valuables, and a T.V. A friendly member of staff whatsapped check in instructions prior to my arrival & was there to meet me to show me the instructions with the keys. There was complimentary filter coffee & biscuits the following morning.
Nothing that I can think of.
This is not a cookie cutter Hilton designed for the masses of Rich American. This is a quaint personal and Charming small motel. If you are arriving after business hours, check in with them ahead of time. What's app is the most reliable way to do this as telephone connections are sometimes not reliable.
The staff are very friendly, it’s location is really good 10 minute walk to Teatro Juárez. It’s very clean, the beds are very comfortable.
Everything was really good.
Bien en general de nada sirve que la app nos dé la opción de pagar en el establecimiento ya que no es así, te cargan a la tarjeta que dejas en garantía en mi caso el cargo no pasó y me escribieron para decirme que quedaría sujeta a disponibilidad además que a la hora de mi llegada no habría nadie en recepción por lo que tenía que pagar antes. Al final les mandé otra tarjeta para que me hicieran el cargo y quedara confirmada mi estancia pero fue muy incómodo porque íbamos en carretera. El hotel en general está bien, buena atención de tener café/té y galletas disponibles Buena ubicación Revisar la limpieza ya que encontramos 2 cucarachas pequeñas por lo que debe de haber algún nido fue en la hab 5 Hacen un grupo de whatsapp de guest service que es muy bueno ya que te ayudan con dudas y te dan información de la ciudad
location. atention. close to good restaurants. staff was great.
Excelente lugar, limpio y cómodo, de fácil acceso al centro histórico de la ciudad. La atención y el servicio excelente desde antes de llegar a las instalaciones. Sin dudas lo recomiendo ampliamente
Muy buen servicio. Personal muy amable. Una estancia muy agradable.
Excellent and personalized service. Very attentive young lady on call. Would definitely stay again.
Great location,easy to check in and out, close to bars, restaurants and center,
Guanajuato is an amazing city! Walkable points of interest really close to hotel, including shopping and restaurants.
El hotel muy céntrico , pero sin nadie sin personal en el hotel, solamente llega la persona a dejarte las llaves y darte explicación como entrar el hotel y es todo. Aparte la habitación avía plaga de cucarachas y fuga de agua en el wc. Lo único bueno del hotel que está céntrico y que todo se puede ir caminando y regresar caminando al hotel.
Cuando fuimos a tocar nunca nos abrieron ni respondieron el celular mandaba a buzón. Cobraron cuando solo se Pone datos de la tarjeta para garantizar la habitación y después me hablaron que el recepcionista salió temprano y cerraron las Puertas. Me fui a otro hotel
El hotel está bien ubicado, el inconveniente k no hay ventilación del exterior y eso hace k se sienta sofocado el clima, pusieron un ventilador de piso pero el ruido del mismo hace perder el encanto de la ciudad
Hotel pequeño acogedor, cómodo, limpio buena ubicación Solo dos defectos el sanitario estaba filtrando agua por la unión con el piso y en la noche salían una o dos cucarachas pequeñas en el baño
Great spot in Guanajuato! It’s an interesting old building and the staff was fantastic. Definitely recommend.
Very happy. Good value. Good location. Clean
Lugar tranquilo y con acceso a todo muy cerca ,limpio y con muy buena comunicación
Pesimo Hotel
Hotel pequeño pero confortable. Todos muy amables y acompañando de buenas sugerencias para comer, cenar, visitar y parrandear por parte de la administración. Recomendable.
Beautiful small hotel, cozi and very clean!
Evereything was excellent
Muy bonito el hotel, el cuarto muy limpio y cómodo y muy bien equipado con todo lo necesario, además está en el mero centro de Guanajuato no tienes que moverte mucho para ir a cualquier lugar!!
La ubicación del hotel es buena y en el acceso tiene una cafetería muy agradable, la limpieza del hotel muy mala salieron dos cucarachas en el cuarto y tuvimos problemas para abrir la puerta principal en la noche no abría la llave y nos tuvieron que abrir por dentro, otro inconveniente es que no hay recepción todo el día
Todo excelente.
El lugar esta bien ubicado
Todo muy bien, solamente que había que caminar con las maletas hacia el estacionamiento. Pero todo bien todo cerca y accesible. El cuarto no cuenta con clima pero por el precio vale la pena. Muy acogedor y seguro
El hotel está en muy buena ubicación para andar en el centro de Guanajuato, el servicio y la atención de Armando fueron de lujo, eso es un gran plus que tiene el hotel. Súper recomendado este hotel.
Me gusta mucho la estancia, es muy tranquilo y limpio. Sumamente hospitalario
This is the third time we stay here. Not only is the location superb but Fernando and Ana who run the cafe are the kindest and friendliest people. Would def recommend this place to anyone traveling to Guanajuato.
Lovely, tucked away and private property. Very close to everything in town. The hosts Elizabeth and Fernando were helpful and friendly. Clean, comfortable room. One suggestion would be to add a bath mat in the bathroom as I slipped on water on the floor and had a fall. It is in the centre of town so there is some noise but overall we loved it. Will come back to this wonderful hidden gem.
Charming hotel in the historic area Great coffee after 10.
This is a very charming property, just 5 rooms or so, a very special atmosphere. It's well kept, and the rooms have nice private bathrooms. Fernando, the proprietor, is friendly and interested in arts and literature, and runs a lovely bookshop-cafe in the front room and courtyard. It's a superb location -- in central Guanajuato but on a quiet street. Just a couple of shortcomings. Because the rooms' windows open onto the Zaguan (the covered courtyard-patio-cafe) rather than to the outside, you are likely to keep the curtains pulled closed. Though there are lots of restaurants nearby, there is no coffee available onsite until the cafe opens at around 10:30 a.m. Our room also lacked a chair and reading light.
Nice, clean, Friendly staff, excellent location , close to the town but far from the noise, excellent place , Sergio Q. Denver CO.
The owners & staff are EXTREMELY fliendly. They make it feel like home
loved the place. Is a small boutique hotel with only five rooms. Super quiet at night and management is friendly and helpful. location is perfect, close to everything but away from noise. There is no parking but a public parking is close by and Guanajuato is NOT a drivable town by any means. Walking is best and rarely you will need a car.
This is great little boutique hotel in the heart of beautiful Guanajuato. It was so comfortable and quiet, I heartily recommend it for your visit to GTO.
This place is a hidden gem. Clean, quiet, conveniently located, and the owners were wonderful. If I came back to GTO, I would definitely stay here again.
Love this place. The room was clean and spacious. Our host was awesome. He was very accomodating. He offered transportation arrangements and was up punctual before we had to depart despite the fact that we had to checkout at 5 AM. Just an FYI, if you need to communicate with him and the phones are not working, email him directly. He is very responsive and within minutes he will reply and address your concerns. The place is located very conveniently not to far from town center, approx. 5 min walking distance. In addition, it is about 2 minutes away from other beautiful small plazas where you can find nice coffee shops, bars and many little restaurants. Over all we had a great time in Gto and we are definitely coming back.
perfect location for walking around this beautiful city. comfortable room and nice owners. ( shower head needs a bit of work and the lock while cool was difficult to open) otherwise a really nice stay.
very good location, walking distance to the centre - a warm reception from the owner on arrival and a very good, homemade, mexican style breakfast every morning by a local woman who keeps the property very clean, as well - overall, a good accommodation for the price
Comfortable and clean. Close to all central dining and fun local celebrations, on foot. A romantic and very fun city.
Good central location of the hotel. Attentive owners, comfortable room.
Felt secure but would recommed a better door system. Hotel owner was very out going and always ready to please!
He is really an artist and so cool. Cozy but nice room. Quiet and romantic.
The owners of this hotel were very nice and it's in a fantastic location in centro GTO - just up the street from Museo de Casa de Diego Rivera, and there are good restaurants in same block. The only downside was room did not have a window and room was stuffy at night. They did have a fan and it helped but I would have preferred a room with a window that I could crack to get more/cooler air when I slept. So if you want a room with a view or if you get hot when you sleep be sure to clarify which room they are giving you before you book.
We stayed there during eater week. Not only was the place cozy and quiet despite the city being crowded, but Fernando and Ana are the best hosts one can ask for. The location is by far the best. Everything is a short walk away. This is the perfect place to stay at for single couples looking for a quick getaway. The coffee at the cafe in the lobby was amazing.
Nice facility with personal attention, quiet location, in historic center close to all tourist sites and museums. Public parking close by. Many small eateries in adjacent streets.
Loved the location and owners . would have given this tiny jewel all 5 but it's important to understand this issue...I'm not grumpy or very sensitive to noise. It's too bad they aren't able to control this: Unfortunately they have a building full of partying students next door. Very loud til at least midnight, maybe later. Music and screaming . ( 2 nights, thurs, fri) No festival in city. 2nd night I had to leave for airport at 4 AM and didn't get much value out of that short night.
