Hostel Hospedarte Centro

Unfortunately this was a bad hostel. Its in a bad area downtown (although the crime rate isn't the fault of the hostel) but also the rooms and commin areas were quite dirty. The staff could be a little better in regards to customer service as well. They do have a basic breakfast. They own another property in Chapultepec, so just stay there. I'd avoid this one.

My second time here, and will continue to call this home in Guadalajara, Jalisco México while I am here. I prefer to be here than stay with relatives. Great staff, Alexis, Irene, and Omar!!!

The hostel is quiet but it’s a great home base while in Guadalajara. Good location proximate to the main points of interest which is really important to me as a solo female traveller in a city that is self-proclaimed to not be the safest. The building itself is gorgeous. Grand pillars, a wrap around balcony, and beautiful tiles. Unfortunately the room has no A/C, so it is very hot. The hostel itself felt safe and secure, but not so much the dorms, as the doors don’t have locks and often get left opened by cleaning staff. I noticed that the girls dorm seemed to be the only one without curtains on the beds to cut out any light which was unfortunate but at least I woke up early everyday. The free breakfast was nice to have! Fresh fruit and toast and yogurts. That was very helpful during my first time in Guadalajara. Showers are hot! Staff is super helpful!

I would have given 5 stars if the bed wasn't so uncomfortable. I could feel every single spring on the entire mattress. I asked others in the room if they could also feel the springs through their mattresses, and only 2 of them said they couldn't feel any in the 7 bed dorm. The staff offered me to switch beds, but when I put my hand on that other bed, I could feel the springs on that one also, so I decided to stay where I was and used 5 layers of blankets between me and the mattress. While it gets cold outside, when the doors are closed it gets quite warm in the dorm. The lockers can fit entire backpacks/suitcases. The bathrooms are clean and have hot water. Staff are nice and location is good. The kitchen is okay, takes a very long time to boil water on the stovetop and it's cramped in the corner. Thankfully I was the only one cooking when I used it. Breakfast is great. They had watermelon my 1st day and also cantaloupe my 2nd day, and any leftovers they would leave out on the counter after breakfast hours until it's gone. They have bread that you can toast, and butter and jam. Also strawberry yogurt granola, and cereal. Simple, but very easy to fill your belly! They have a WhatsApp group and activities. The tours they offer are a lot more expensive than elsewhere.

Clean rooms, great wifi, good location. The only one complaint was the noise from the traffic below during the night, but wearing plugs works well.

Well-located and with kind staff. Several good trips was arranged by the staff, so if you want to experience Guadalajara together with other people, this hostel is an excellent choice. The hostel is slightly worn-down, but as said with the kind staff, it does not matter much.

Wonderful and clean Rooms, great service and directly in the centre of Guadalajara. Best hostel i have stayed in all my travels. Thank you.

I booked a private room and bathroom, and it was well worth the extra. |The room was just across the road from the main hostel, which means the space is very private, with a communal kitchen and lovely outdoor patio /seating areas. Room was large and cool in the hot weather, and very comfortable. Very clean, nice decor and housekeeping was excellent.|Huge plus are the many tours offered by the hostel also, in particular the Tuesday 'Lucha Libre' Trip, with an excellent guide, Sergio.|All of the staff were friendly and helpful, and I would definitely stay here again!
