Mi arrival was terrible, no one was there, so they have me waiting for like an hour outside in the street with all our luggage and finally after like an hour when they show up they don’t even say sorry or any apology it was just an “excuse me let me open the door”. The place is not that bad but my experience there was terrible. Also the room we get wasn’t even close to those pictures posted.

No es "hotel boutique".

El lugar está muy descuidado, tiene un gran jardín pero alberga cosas inservibles, los muebles rotos, una cosa son muebles vintage y otra muy diferente muebles inservibles. Le falta mucho mantenimiento y limpieza.

Great value for the money! Really enjoyed having an outdoor kitchen and fridge that we could use for a quick egg breakfast or salad lunch. The property is typical Mexican with an older, rustic type of style. The grounds are lovely with lots of greenery, humming birds and butterflies. The host does not speak English but we were able to communicate using Google translate. Enjoyable stay.

No es aceptable

Al estar en Ajijic comprendimos que los extranjeros han encarecido las rentas, pero aún así esta propiedad debe mejorar mucho. Es una casa construida como en los años 60, está descuidada con muebles de esa época, poco mantenimiento, apagadores en mal estado, ventana del baño que le falta un vidrio, sockets sin bombillas, apagadores con agujeros, la puerta del cuarto cerraba de milagro. La habitación dejaba pasar mucho frio, quisimos mover una cortina para proteger la privacidad y se vino abajo. Yo les recomendaría vender la mitad y la otra mitad restaurarla, ese terreno tiene mucho potencial. Sinceramente da miedo su aspecto. Mi esposa tiene entrenamiento y certificiones en prevención de plagas y ella asegura que por la noche se escuchan alacranes en el interior. Se le comentó a la encargada pero nos dice que ella nunca ha tenido ese problema.
