I stayed at this hotel for three days because I was presenting my book, Abraham Lincoln and Mexico, at the state archives and Museo de Casa de Juarez The host was very gracious. He cooked breakfast for us each morning: eggs with chorizo, tortilla, coffee, fruit. The rooms had heat and we quite comfortable We used the patio often for book discussions, as well as the cozy living room. The hotel is situated in an ideal location for access to the center of the city. We also felt safe walking about. Highly recommended.

“Old house close at the city Center”

It is pretty well located close to the city centre. It is an old house with few rooms turned into a boutique hotel. Decoration is nice including several antique objects. It was clean and staff friendly to assist.

“Interesting place.”

This hotel seems to have been somebody’s home. We arrived in the dark and there was nothing available to eat or drink and our room was off the small courtyard. The room was definitely quirky with a huge bed with bed clothes that weren’t really big enough but lovely antique furniture and an old stove and gas fire. I have no idea if either worked. None of the lights had all the bulbs working, which was a shame because the room needed better lighting. The bathroom was big and modern bits but it was impossible to keep the water from the shower actually in the bath. It went everywhere. And we didn’t know if loo paper was to go in the bin, which was NOT next to the loo, or could be flushed. Breakfast was adequate.

We had five nights and four days to experience the hospitality shown from this family as we spent time in Chihuahua. It is a very small bed and breakfast hotel with twenty-four hour desk and security in the heart of historic downtown. During our stay we spent two days in the hotel relaxing and recharging. There is a lovely enclosed patio, with comfortable table and chairs, air conditioning in the rooms, comfortable beds, a nice breakfast of eggs, ham or chorizo, fruit, toast, coffee, and conversations! We have not stayed other places in Chihuahua, but would definitely book at this boutique hotel again just because they treated us as family! Completely wonderful!
