Just go - you will not regret it!

    • This house was absolutely amazing! the terrace view is stunning, overlooking the whole city of guanajuato. The location of the house is central to gunajuato's center and within a one minute walk to the famous callejon del beso. The property managers were helpful and spoke both spanish and english, and the house itself was gorgeous, immaculately clean, safe and up to date. All in all, my fiancee and I had an absolutely wonderful and welcoming experience and would highly recommend this house to anyone visiting the area.
