Love everything except the wifi, if you need to use it because you have a work trip as me, I don’t recommend it, but if it’s only for pleasure and you don’t need wifi at all, not even to watch a movie, it’s a really good place to stay and also they are pet friendly for a extra few of $150 MXN

Cute house, small rooms but big TV and big bathroom. Nice decors. The only bad thing was there were way too many mosquitos in the room, and in the common areas like the kitchen. Should fumigate.

Really well done vacation rental in a top neighborhood of Guadalajara. Affordable with nice common spaces, secure, luggage storage, and a rooftop. I'm going to keep this in mind for future events.
