We had a lovely stay at Le Gite Del Sol. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was warm and comfortable with hot showers. It is only a 10 min walk to the Zocalo and is in a nice quiet area. We were given lots of local information and allowed to use the facilties after we checked out... More

I stayed in the 'budget' annex across the street. The room was clean, and the breakfast was ok although not large. The hotel is NOT close to the Zocalo / main square (at least 15 mins walking). It is reasonably cheap, so at the beginning of my stay I was rather happy. As time went by I realised there are... More

On our first trip to Mexico,we have travelled mainly in Asia,we found this little oasis in the beautiful town of San Cristobal.At first we were given a room across the road in a section that had what appeared to be a local family living out the back.We felt like we were a part of that family,with one of its members...

I was really pleased with my stay at Le Gite del Sol. I stayed in the secondary building, in a room with a bunk bed (single mattress on upper, double on bottom), a small desk, and a closet built into the wall. I thought it was quite comfortable for the three of us and our backpacks, at least for an... More

We booked Le Gite del Sol because of the excellent reviews we read on Trip Advisor. The price we paid for a double room with private shower ensuite was 250 pesos a night for us both, so one cannot expect much for that price. Denny the male owner is very friendly and ready to help with all your requests on... More

This is a clean comfortable hostel to stay in. We stayed in the room for six, it has two single beds, one double and a bunk bed. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. The location is great one block from the main strip. You can also purchase bus tickets here from the owner which is very helpful and... More

I can't say anything about the price because I don't know the price of other places. What I can say is that the floor of the rooms is horrible, it used to be painted but the paint is coming off... My rooms was incredibly noisy and it was hard to sleep. Breakfast is ok. Don't buy anything from them! I... More

For the price this is a terrific deal. Nice rooms, friendly owner/staff and choice of large breakfasts are included as well. They also offer tours (although we didn't take any) and you can book your bus tickets through them. A fair bit of street noise so ear plugs are useful (could be said almost anywhere in Mexico, though). Highly recommended.

Comfortable hostel, quite close to the main plaza and pedestrian street. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Yes, they mention the tours that you can buy through them but they are hardly pushy about it - and their prices are exactly the same as if you bought the tours directly from the tour operator (who won't then necessary pick...

The B&Bs main building (with reception and breakfast) is more attractive than the second building we stayed in over the road. We had a private room, which was very small, and the small window was overgrown with vines so couldn't be closed properly. The private bathroom we had flooded during every shower as the curtain wasn't big enough and there... More
