La Casa Del Barrio - Hostel

Expensive for what it provides. Approximately $350 peso for a 6 bed dorm with no curtains. The light in the bathroom wasn’t working for 3 days so we were showering by phone flash. The cafe that is advertised, never opened for the 4 days I was there. They instead provided bread, butter, coffee and milk complimentary.

I have known La Casa del Barrio since several years ago and have always received good service. I recently visit the place and they have new rooms, more spacious and comfortable and with a new design more contemporary but always welcoming. I usually go there for breackfast and the food they offer is delicious and at a goog price. There is very little parking at the front, so if you come by car I recommend using the public parking which is half a block away.

We had such a lovely stay at this hostel in Barrio Antiguo. The location is stunning, surrounded by the charm and vibrancy of the neighborhood. The space itself is pretty calm and beautifully designed. It’s full of rich colors and textures that make it feel warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly hospitable and created a peaceful atmosphere throughout the stay. Our room was very clean and comfortable, making it easy to relax. Bed is kind of small for 2 people to share (we had a private room) but there was a cot next to it so I moved to it when my sister tossed and turned too much one night. If you appreciate aesthetics, this place is a dream. The only small inconvenience besides bed size (if you’re a bigger person) is that the front door doesn’t have a code, so you have to wait for someone to open it, but that’s a minor issue compared to the overall experience. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful and tranquil stay in the heart of Barrio Antiguo.

Great place to stay for a few days, the rooms are clean and with plenty of space for 6 beds. The wifi is pretty good although sometimes it disconnects randomly but it is for a few seconds. There are also shared areas with sofas and a small outdoor place with plants and tables where you can enjoy some food from the place. The Hostal is in an amazing area where you have plenty of clubs, museums, things to do and restaurants close by

Stayed in a private room here and it was very well-kept and clean. Slight issue checking-in with the hostel not having my reservation, though I think it was more of Hostelworld not notifying the hostel. However, the lady/employee checking me in was very friendly and kind. Had a short stay and was really only at the hostel to sleep, though I enjoyed my stay.

It is walkable to all areas in the Barrio Antiguo- restaurants, paseo, macroplaza, etc. All rooms have separate heat/cooling, are clean and have adequate bathrooms. Breakfast is delicious on site. The managers are friendly and multi-lingual. It is historic and so much more quaint than a chain hotel

Perfect location in the hip section of town. A couple block walk from tons of cafe’s, museums, and bars. Shared rooms and private rooms are both nice. Hot water, cold AC, clean sheets. The front desk lady is very attentive and gave me a fun tour when I showed up.

Everybody here is super friendly. You meet all sorts of folks from all over the world and can learn all sorts of languages just sitting around with the awesome people. Daniel and the two Ales provided exceptional service. And there is no doubt that Maggie makes the best waffles in town. It’s the most incredible view of the mountains right outside the front door that really makes this the best place I could have happened upon. The private rooms have Roku TV and nice new model minisplit AC units. They’re super effective. The space is small but definitely livable for a week or three. The dorms seem always to be changing and are likely to be busy. Only one shower for a 7 or 8 bed space, though. So the spend on the private room may be worth it. Everything you need as a traveler is within walking distance. Stop by for a brunch and enjoy the amazing Wi-Fi. They take Apple Pay for everything too. Barrio Antiguo is the place to be on the weekends and the streets are full of markets. You can make some great deals with secondhand merchandise informally or go to a high fashion boutique and get whatever your heart desires. All options here from delicious street hot dogs to exquisite international food. I loved Monterrey and staying here made it an amazing journey. The workers here all clearly know and love what they are doing. Great vibes all around here and everybody is welcomed. Note: Photos included some places in the surrounding area and not all was taken on the property.
