Carmen is an excellent and attentive host, and a sweet person, as well as an excellent cook. Bathroom was sparkling clean. The balcony of my room offered an excellent view of one of the most beautiful architectural structures of the city. The nights are quiet, making for a sound sleep, unlike the center of the city. Most of all, I always felt right at home.

Un lugar muy acogedor y tranquilo. Excelente para descansar después de una buena caminata por Guanajuato. El cuarto estaba muy limpio, con televisor, baño y una terracita con una vista muy amena. La señora Carmelita es súper amable, muy atenta con nosotros y sus desayunos están deliciosos. Claro que me encantaría volver ahí en mi próxima visita a Guanajuato!!! :D

El hostel es agradable, simple pero hogareño. La limpieza es buena al igual que la comodidad, la dueña Carmelita es una señora super atenta y amable al igual que sus nietos. Lo único que no me encanto fue el desayuno, para mi simple y careciente de la buena comida mexicana que uno espera en una ciudad como Guanajuato (chilaquiles, enchiladas, etc) dicho esto no entendí porque a nosotros solo nos dio un desayun simple y a los huespedes siguientes si les dio "almuerzo". En general lo recomiendo, pero si son de buen comer no esperen llenarse con el desayuno.

Fantastic trip to Guanajuato!

All the great reviews about Carmelita's are spot-on. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Carmelita is a wonderful host and equally great cook! The location of her establishment will allow you to walk past numerous restaurants and businesses, on your way to the center of town. Also you are within walking distance of Presa de la Olla. We will definitely be returning! Thank you, Carmelita!

Carmelta is the greatest host I've ever encountered! She's on top of things, helpful, accommodating (out of her own will, she prepared a special healthy breakfast for my wife every day while we were there!). She and her staff really do an amazing job of going the extra mile.

Fue una muy grata experiencia el hospedarnos en el Hogar de Carmelita. El hotel es limpio, seguro, cómodo, bien ubicado y en buen precio, pero lo que más destaca es la amabilidad y la atención que recibes de parte de todo el personal junto con la gran anfitriona Doña Carmelita. Yo lo recomiendo mil veces, no se arrepentirán de quedarse con Doña Carmelita.

Ok room, but noisy

We looked for quiet room, and therefore chose Hogar de Carmelita about 15 to 20 minutes walk from historical centre. However, noise from traffic and a party place with loud music close to the habitation was very annoying and made it difficult to sleep. Simple continental breakfast acceptable.
