    Very cold room (once fire died out), no restaurant for dinner or breakfast (had a lovely dining space and staff, but apparently only does for groups). Cash payment only and one ATM in town that was out of service :)

    Friendly staff, fireplace, easy parking

    The breakfast at the restaurant was very delicious! Fruits with granola, toast, jam, eggs however you like. It was the perfect meal to get us ready for the hike to the butterflies and reasonably priced. The staff were incredibly helpful. They gave us suggestions about how to move onto our next destination when our plans went out the window. They were very kind and patient with us throughout. It was a little cold in the evening, but the beds had many blankets and there was a fire in the room. My only wish is that it stayed on longer! Overall a wonderful stay and would recommend it.

    The beds were really hard and the restaurant was closed. Not their fault though… so few guests travelling because of COVID! Otherwise everythin was good!

    It is very cute and countryish. There are beautiful trees right outside. We got to take a private tour right to the butterfly sanctuary from our hotel.

    No table and chairs in the room. No mountain or garden view as described. Light in bathroom was not working. Don Gabino is located 1.1 km from the city center.

    Room was nice and clean.

    Room was very plain and barely functional. Also, I believe I got sick at the restaurant, but knowing where for sure is not possible

    The location was great, very close to Monarch Butterfly Preserves

    The beds were hard. The restaurant was not open during our mid week stay (not many at the hotel that night).

    The hotel is located in a beautiful spot. Sitting on the balcony outside your room the view is gorgeous and so serene. Just totally lovely. There are flowers everywhere around. Our room was cosy and warm enough at night with the blankets. The shower had hot water. The beds were very hard and the pillows very flat--I bring my own. Everything was very clean. It is located at the south end of town, so would be a bit of a walk into the centre. We travelled by car, so this wasn't a problem for us.

    There is no heater in the room and u have to pay extra 200 pesos for some liquid to pour someplace in the room to heat it? Hot water in the shower is only for 1-3 minutes then it turns cold. They didnt have breakfast or dinner couple days because they ran out of food in spite of me calling ahead and telling them we need foood at their restaurant that specific day. They charged 200 pesos for one small dinner when in the restaurant in town it was 280 pesos for two people. The town is super cute but i would recommend staying in another town which better accommodations.

    Location to the monarchs were great, you had to walk 30 minutes one way into town which is not bad.

    We arrived at the hotel and was informed that our reservation had been cancelled. We showed them the confirmation we received from booking.com where I made my reservation, but they said they had sent a message that the reservation had been cancelled. Booking.com did not forwarded this message to me. We had to find another hotel - fortunately we found a room a the Hotel La Margarita which was great.

    The restaurant was closed and there were no places to eat within walking distance. The towels in the room were dirty. There is no heat in the room which made the visit miserable since it was in the 30s outside.

    The room was satisfactorily clean. Parking was convenient although the hotel is difficult to find.

    The facility didn’t have heating or hot water. This was terrible. They offered a fire place but this wasn’t sufficient for the temperature in the room. not confident in cleaning as someone else’s underwear was hanging in our shower. Gross.

    Breakfast was good but they didn’t tell us what was included or prices - just brought things out and then charged at the end.
