The hostel is quiet, cozy and comfortable, just as any hostel should be! I heard Guanajuato was an outstanding town, and I'm glad I picked it as a stop on my journey. In the hostel you have a wide choice of rooms, from cheap privates (180 to 200 pesos for a double in low season) to even cheaper dorms. Beds... More

The Hostal is in a great location (just off from Teatro Principal) but many other features such as kitchen (no fridge nor utensils) cleanliness of showers etc. lag behind the other hostels I've been too. It's on ok hostel, not great but ok. As well, there is a lot of street noise. More

When I was here it was pretty quiet, maximum 6 guests at the same time and I was alone in a dormitory. Three showers for men, more than enough now, but not enough when the hostel is full. Showers are very hot, toilets very small, beds are good, it's a but noisy from traffic, very small boring breakfast, staff not... More

I went to Guanajuato with a friend for the last Cervantino Festival. As this was spontanious we were glad to get a room. At least we had a bunk bed on our own: in the same room was a double bed, occupied with 3 guys. This was still fine, as the whole beautiful city was crowded because of the event.... More

I've been there with my dads, I slept in a dormitory and them, in a private room. The dormitory was very very simple, very very noisy and cold. The private room was very calm and beautiful. But the persons attending are very very nice, the hostel is at 5mn of the main place, there is a nice terrace with a... More

The worst of the 20 hostels during my trip. The worst breaky (half a banana and 2 slices of bread, strictly rationed), no cereal, no milk, no fruit, no juice, no toaster, no refrigerator, no silverware, no cooking utensils and a broken microwave. Smelly baths, loud traffic and diesel exhaust in the rooms starting at 7AM, and no sofas or... More

With a limited travel budget at my disposal, I stay in hostels all the time. Hostels tend to be either terrible or fantastic, and La Casa del Tio was one of the best I've ever stayed in. It was clean and well managed, with staff that bent over backwards to make me feel at home and answer all my questions.... More

I stayed here for 5 nights and had a great stay. The hostel is located very very close to the centro historico and everything is within walking distance. Its easy to get a bus straight here from the main bus station when you arrive too, just ask for Teatro Principal. The hostel was clean and secure and the staff helpful... More
