Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
None of the amenities that were advertised actually existed. I booked a kitchen because I like to cook. Very few cooking items were included, the stove didn’t work well and oven didn’t work at all. The refrigerator door wouldn’t stay closed. The fireplace did not work. The bed was hard as a rock. The bedding and towels were threadbare. There was no bar. The breakfast was passable but it had eight items only and two were not available any longer. The pool was not heated. The WiFi constantly cut out and worked VERY slowly for the brief periods it was working. The hot water (tepid really) ran out before one could complete a reasonable shower. The desk person in the morning and the waiter at breakfast were lovely. The rest of the staff was rude and surly. I am not a snob and I wasn’t expecting the Ritz but this was a total shabby lie. I expect it will fail soon. There were few guests and any other guests I with had the same complaints. Sadly, the hotel has amazing potential but is rundown and needs some upgrading and robust management. I would love to see it done properly.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Property originally a monastery, then medical clinic, and now a hotel. It was huge rooms, like a cave, and very poor lighting. Staff very nice, and helpful. It was never updated to be a hotel, it was designed to be a monastery. Bed mattress very poor. Internet - terrible. Ended up with no hot shower. I would like a refund or credit for bad hotel. hot shower

For the most part it was great, have to remember that it is MEXICO. A bit noisy. Had to turn on the water heater and pull out and plug in the refrigerator but it served its purpose. Clean, spacious, and traditional. I’ve stayed here in the past and would definitely stay here again.

Rooms were huge, clean and well appointed but dated. Grounds were very well maintained and staff were very helpful. Pool was clean but needs a few tiles replaced. I can imagine in its day it was a beautiful property. For the money it was well worth it.

This is a well kept, clean property. Huge rooms. By American standards, although well kept, everything is worn down. Beds are hard, pillows not great. But again, everything is clean. The people are lovely but don’t expect them to speak English. The pool is great, the breakfasts are very good. Very quiet. My 3rd stay here. Convenient location.

Este hotel esta en el mero pueblo, entre las casa de los locales y entre vistas magnificas de lo que es la vejetacion y fauna del pueblo Ajijic. En el iterior de apatamento hotel puedes sentir lo que es vivir como si fueras local. Si visitas te advieto el cuarto que nos toco no cuenta ni con calenton ni con aie acondicionado, solo tiene chimenea y ventiladoreportatil.
