EL HOSTALito SMA - Hostel

San Miguel de Allende

The attendants were nice and polite.  However, the room has a bad smell coming from the bathroom, so it needs to be fixed. Also, the distance from the hostel to the downtown area was not a walking distance you need to take a taxi.

far from downtown

The staff was very nice and friendly. The location and the condition of the hotel were ok. The problem was that there was only a thin blanket on the bed and since at night it was pretty cold in November, I was cold all night long even though I put on me all the clothes I had with me. So I caught a cold after that and had to deal with it. This just shouldn't have happened. It's obvious that that blanket can't be enough during the winters and I don't understand why the management doesn't bother to fix that problem.

Not happy.

Hostel is a bit out of the main center but not more than a 10 minute walk.  The dorm i stayed in was ensuite and clean.  Beds were ok but not the best, that being said i slept great.  Not many common areas to hang out but a few couches and chairs here and there.  The staff is friendly and helpful and the price was reasonable.

Nice Stay

This hostalito was a close walk to town, a bit out of the way if walking back at night especially alone. Our first room had no windows and only one blanket, the beds were ok but no where to hang up anything or to put your backpack/suitcase. Bring your own towels as theirs are replaced daily otherwise they would never dry. Non absorbant and thin, I worked for hotels  that did the same I don't get why hoteliers cut cost cost here? Don't expect to really cook anything in the kitchen other than coffee, very limited dishes, no real coffee cups and roaches, the fridge was  not cleaned the entire week I was there. After to moving to a room  upstairs hoping for it to be warmer, the only window we had was to the inside hallway again, with extra blankets it was almost bearable. Again it was winter. No blowdryers to borrow or irons this is not a place to get dressed up for anything unless you are OK with wet hair and wrinkled clothes. Front desk had zero info for where to go, stick to the Internet for that. We did find an awesome cafe called Garambullo just around the corner. You do get coffee on sat & sun ..no cream and in a foam cup.
If you are only looking for cheap this is the place. Hot water was great in shower but mold and mildew under the sink and toilet was very bad! Also be sure to read the full fine print when booking this property, they charged 1/2 the stay to the credit card that was for guarantee  (one night room and tax)well before the date they should have and when we asked for a refund the only option was to provide then our bank account number NOT, and they then reminded us they required full payment in advance to a bank account.

You get what you pay for..

This is an old hospital which has been turned into a hostel. The decoration is basic but it has been renovated with travellers in mind. The wifi is very fast, there are good hot showers, the bed was comfortable and the room was a good size. The location was a five minute walk into town. The hostel is near the market which is great for buying fruit. The hotel does not provide breakfast. It does provide early morning coffee as a courtesy. It is good value for money in a place which is expensive.

Good value for money

I went on a pleasure trip, we stayed for several days, struggling to find him because there are several #10s in Calle de la Presa, on arrival they welcomed us kindly, attended to our requests, the clean rooms, spacious rooms, small bathrooms, has a common kitchen, family atmosphere, this near the market Ignacio Ramírez, where they sell everything, food, crafts, etc., eager to return.

Nothing luxurious, but pleasant.

It's for a basic trip, a comfortable bed, hot water, not far from the center and good price. Excellent service. With parking included. Towels, bathrooms, mattresses and clean sheets. Reserve in advance because they have few rooms. They have a kitchenette.

Well, nice and cheap.

It's a very nice and economical hotel, my wife and I stayed four nights, cleaning every day, maintaining a very quiet atmosphere.This also has a kitchen to guard your food or kitchens.It's one of the best hostels out there, the staff is friendly and accept pets.
