Herbergen in Guadalajara

Positiv:: - Great location. - Property is set up with lots of space to hang out and socialize. - Bar with decent drink and food options.

Negativ:: - There were a lot of little problems with the property that added up to make the experience much worse. In a week, here are all the things that were broken (and most were not fixed during my time there): 1) Slow/clogged shower drain 2) no hot water for 2 days 3) bathroom stall lock didn't work 4) soap dispenser in main men's bathroom didn't work for most of the week! 5) paper towel dispensers in two different bathrooms were broken 6) some power outlets didn't work 7) the men's bike's tire was flat and couldn't be inflated 8) leaky sink pipe dripping on the floor. - Mosquitoes EVERYWHERE. I got bitten more times during my week here than I can remember being bitten anywhere. It doesn't help that most of the windows and doors don't have any screens, so the option is to leave the property wide open or get no circulation. -Dishonest business practices. A sign in their main lobby announces a discount for any guests staying for 7 nights. I didn't see this sign and was not told about the discount when checking in. When I asked about it the next day (and followed up afterward), three different people gave me three different excuses as to why I couldn't receive the discount. - Lockers are small. Most of your stuff will need to be left outside the lockers. - Breakfast is just toast, cereal, or one fruit option.

Positiv:: Rundum zufrieden, tolles Personal. Hostel ist in Verbindung mit einer Bar, Touren werden mit dem Partnerhostel im Stadtzentrum durchgeführt

Positiv:: Lage ist top. Zimmer ruhig. Alles sauber.

Negativ:: Das Frühstück ist ziemlich mager.

Positiv:: Overall awesome stay. I would recommend this hostal mainly because of the incredible location. You are in the "heart" of Chapultepec Ave. where you have many many things from ATM's, OXXO, and lots of restaurants and bars to choose from. Be sure and check out HATO (next to the hostal) - Japanese Ramen with a Mexican twist. Also don't miss the Luchas libres tour on Tuesdays. Super beautiful neighborhood.

Negativ:: It was super hot in the room. In Guadalajara's defense, the city is not know for hot weather but this was the hottest month.

Positiv:: Everything about the place, would come back to stay next time. The overall hygiene is up to hotel standard

Negativ:: nothing

Positiv:: The property was very clean and had a very cool design. The staff were very nice and helpful, even gave you tips and helped you out if you had a question. Bathrooms and rooms were well cleaned.

Positiv:: The location is amazing, next to the nicest walking street in Guadalajara with tons of bars and restaurants, but far away enough to get away from most of the noise. It was the second time staying here for me but I noticed a new hostel (bohostel said a sign on it) was being constructed just next to this one, which looked a lot nicer in terms of facilities. I would check that one out when going next time for sure.

Negativ:: Unfortunately we had a problem with a leakage in the bathroom, which filled the floor with (clean) water. Staff helped clean it up but the only solution was to turn off the water to the wc, which meant that when we wanted to use it we had to turn it back on temporarily to be able to flush which was a mess, especially in the middle of the night.

Positiv:: The outdoor space both back and front is the best part. Good hostel needs airy space and lights. I highly suggest the hostel provide bicycles for rent (your free bikes are not super comfortable). Best way to see this city is by bike, not by foot.

Negativ:: Bathroom and toilet is a bit small but understand the limited space. I would like if there are more shelves or storage for our stuff next to our bed. Everyone stuff is just on the bed or on the floor. Breakfast can be improved.

Positiv:: Zentrale Lage und gute Uber-Anbindung

Negativ:: Die Zimmer sind sehr klein, sodass nicht genug Platz ist um zwei große Koffer ganz zu öfnnen. Der Wasserdruck ist sehr dürftig und warmes Wasser bekommt man nicht immer.

Positiv:: Location

Negativ:: Cold showers, staff were lukewarm in terms of friendliness.

Positiv:: Die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft des Personals, der wunderschöne Garten, das super preiswerte und leckere mexikanische Essen im dazugehörigen Restaurant.

Positiv:: Das Hostel ist sehr sauber und das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Ein mega Pluspunkt war der Garten - einfach nur wunderschön. Wenn man eher an feiern, ausgehen oder an Parties interessiert ist, ist dieses Hostel von der Lage perfekt.

Positiv:: Lage, Lage, Lage

Negativ:: Es gibt keine Klimaanlage und jede Menge Mücken im Zimmer

Positiv:: Nice location Big common area Friendly staff Comfortable beds

Negativ:: Breakfast would have been better

Positiv:: Gute Lage

Negativ:: Bad und WC

Positiv:: Super Lage für Besichtigungen in der Altstadt. Es werden einige Touren tags und nachts angeboten.

Positiv:: Everything was fabulous but I would kind of complain that the fact that i didn’t rest at all because I was partying all weekend but it’s great, and that was up to me. Lol The staff very friendly always persuading you to be included in the crowd and go for free walking tours, then they have tequila parties on Saturdays and the after in the sonidero was just great, the location is just perfect and it’s not that far from the airport. I would definitely go back to Guadalajara and stay there.

Positiv:: Das Hostel an mir an sich sehr gut gefallen, der Aufenthaltsraum ist schön, die Zimmer nich hellhörig und das Personal sehr nett. Die Betten waren gemütlich, aber haben unheimlich gewackelt wenn die zweite Person in ihr Bett gegangen ist. Ganz schlimm, hatte mich mal eine Nacht wach gehalten.

Negativ:: Manchmal waren die Toietten verstopft (liegt natürlich an den Gästen), der Ausflug nach Tequila hat mir nicht gefallen. Tatsächlich haben wir nur 5 mini Tequilas probiert und das wars. Schade.

Positiv:: location is best near central and Chinatown ……

Negativ:: more mosquito……

Positiv:: Loved the people there . Great nice heartwarming People. Cheers to Ariel who poisoned our livers with his pubcrawls.

Positiv:: I loved this place and would stay again! I arrived on the night of Mexican Independence Day and had a wonderful night joining in with the activities the hostel organised and met some great people (they even translated everything in English for me so I could participate in games, etc). I had a private room in the second building which was very nice and quiet, had good wifi and really nice common areas outside. I also used the shared kitchen in this building to cook some meals which was great! The hostel staff booked me a Tequila day-tour through the hostel which was excellent too. I recommend staying here.

Negativ:: The only issue was there were quite a lot of ants in my room and I needed to sweep them up quite regularly. To be fair however, I slept in 3 of the 4 nights I stayed so the cleaners didn't have the opportunity to clean my room every day (although the one day I was out early, I did notice my room wasn't cleaned that day either). Otherwise I really enjoyed my stay here.

Positiv:: I had a double room with private bathroom in another property location accross from main hostel and it was beautiful!! Room & bathroom were huge, clean and comfortable. The outdoor area was full of plants very pretty. Very nice staff, first night i was in a female dorm and that was a great experience also. Thank you!

Positiv:: Die Lage war der absolute Hammer, es lag direkt im Altstadt-Viertel ( historisches Zentrums). Das Hostel war super sauber und das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Einige Mitarbeiter sprachen sehr gut Englisch. Zudem gab es auch kostenlosen Touren. Des weiteren können wir die Tequila Tour nur empfehlen (zusätzliche Gebühren).

Negativ:: Das wir nicht länger bleiben konnten.

Positiv:: The common area is large and beautiful traditional tiled throughout. the female dorm room was comfortable and cool with plenty of fans, staff are helpful and nice. I loved all the instruments around. The location is great and it felt safe.

Negativ:: The bathroom facilities perhaps could do with a bit of upgrading & there are only 2 showers. They are kept reasonably clean though.

Positiv:: There was a lot of space. Location is also good.

Negativ:: The table in the room was wet, just like the side of the bed, probably due to rain through the window. The kitchen wasn't clean The curtain in the room has fallen on the floor.

Positiv:: the location was the best thing about this place the staff let us check out 30 min later than the normal hour of check out

Negativ:: first of all the rooms are STINKY and dark. there’s no soap in the bathroom and the beds were very unconfortable: above the matress there is some sort of sponge that makes the bed uncomfortably soft.

Positiv:: Super pretty place, love it! Usefully computer in comun area whit high speed internet

Negativ:: .I dont like the cactus

Positiv:: Filtered water in the kitchen, veeeeery comfortable bed - some of the bunk beds are actually double-sized, so it´s very comfortable sleep; central location, rooftop terrace, enough big common areas (kitchen + area around reception + terrace), free-box (things people have forgotten or gave away)

Negativ:: 1) the Wi-Fi didn´t work at all (I couldn´t open even the plain text email)...ok, it can happen, so you tell the staff and they shoul solve it....BUT the staff was pretending it works and showing surprised face, that to them it works normally...it didn´t work for nobody actually (wi-fi is one of the most important things I am looking for when booking accommodation) 2) breakfast was very poor: you can see nice photos of what you can choose for breakfast but reality is not so good. instant coffee and cereals with milk incl. in the price of accommodation somehow logically gives you idea that there should be also some normal number of spoons in the kitchen to be able to make your coffee and eat you cereals...so there was just only 2 spoons for all the guests in the hostel; otherwise there were enough plates and cups at least 3) also all the equipment needs a little bit more of care - all the shelves in the room were falling down...it´s just a pitty nothing serious, beds and furniture was still holding together :)

Positiv:: The situation and that's it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Negativ:: EVERYTHING ! staff didn't speak any english, ask us to pay extra because we will do an early checkout when it say that the reception is open 24h !! No towels provided. Just a shame !!!

Positiv:: Beds were very comfortable

Negativ:: Very dark interior, not much light, strange vibe.

Negativ:: The room was dirty, the girl of the staff lied when I asked which beds are free for me to take and gave me the one she wanted, the temperature of the room was unsupportable, the smell of the room was horrible, the worse hostel I have been in my whole life. I made a reservation for 3 nights but couldn't spend more than 15 minutes there.

Positiv:: Das Personal ist nett und es werden noch Verbesserungen vorgenommen. Als wir da waren, wurde gerade eine Wand im Hof gestrichen. Das Örtchen hat Potential, ich hoffe der Besitzer macht was draus.

Negativ:: Unser Privatzimmer lag im Erdgeschoss zum Hof. Das Fenster ging also quasi direkt in die Öffentlichkeit. War aber schon in Ordnung. Das Bad war recht klein.

Positiv:: Social atmosphere, all the staff were really friendly and the garden is a nice area to hang out.

Negativ:: Es gibt in dem gesamten Hostel nur zwei Bäder und nur in einem von beiden Duschen. Das wurde nicht sehr schlau geplant und ist morgens wahnsinnig nervig.

Negativ:: The pictures of the facilities were inaccurate. The shared shower room was dirty. The rooms pictured aren't even at the same property, and they will tell you when you check in. You can pay extra to stay at the other property. Every night of my stay people were loud in the courtyard until at least 2 A.M.

Positiv:: Common area are nice and cosy, TV with Netflix, a small but brand new Cinema room are available. The staff is really nice and here to help and moreover you can borrow a bike for the day which in such a large city is really helpful.

Negativ:: Locker are not really cleverly build, one of them didn't have a door. Toilets were okay, but for some reason there's a small door that leads straight outside on the roof and having something to dry your hands after having washed them could be good. The Kitchen is not in a bad state, but the crockery could be improved as well as having common seasoning, oil, ...

Positiv:: Great location.

Negativ:: This was more like a very cheap air bnb than a hostel. For the price of a private or dorm bed you can stay in way better and cheaper places in Guadalajara. Rooms defiantly don’t look like the photos and there was no real vibes. Most people lived there long term and were not backpackers. We were the only guests when we checked in. Very weird vibes and if your a backpacker defiantly stay somewhere else.

Positiv:: The staff was very friendly and helpful and the place had a nice familiar atmosphere!

Negativ:: Unfortunately it was very untidy. I am not picky with those things usually but that was a bit too much

Positiv:: Ruhiges Zimmer in guter Lage, 7/11 und Fahrradmietstationen gleich um die Ecke.

Negativ:: Im Einzelzimmer hat mir leider ein Mülleimer gefehlt und die Gemeinschaftsbäder sind recht klein und eng.

Positiv:: Das Hostel ist liebevoll eingerichtet und in guter Lage. Es gibt viele Restaurants und Taco Stände in der Umgebung. Das Zentrum ist in ca. 30 Minuten Fußweg erreichbar. Es gibt einen Innenhof und eine "Dachterrasse", die besonders abends sehr schön ist.

Negativ:: Die Duschen und das Waschbecken haben an einem unserer drei Aufenthaltstage nicht funktioniert, allerdings gab es ein anderes Bad, in das ausgewichen werden konnte. Die Küche war teilweise nicht besonders sauber, was aber auch an anderen Gästen lag, die ihr Geschirr nicht abgewaschen haben.

Positiv:: Sehr nette Betreiber und Mitarbeiter. Toller Innenhof. Im Viertel befinden sich tolle Cafés und Restaurants.

Negativ:: Leider war unser Zimmer (besonders das Bad: Haare in der Dusche, voller Mülleimer, riechender Abfluss, Kakerlaken... ) sehr schmutzig. Wir hatten das Doppelzimmer mit eigenem Bad. Die anderen Zimmer und Bäder waren laut anderer Gäste ok.
