An amazing Boutique Hotel set alongside the mountains close to the town of Mineral del Chico. Great setting, very accommodating staff. A very pleasant and relaxing stay, and would highly recommend a stay here if visiting the area.

Beautiful place surrounded by green areas. We booked 3 rooms and they were great (the bed and pillows were comfortable, they were clean, there was no smell, no bugs, the shower was great). A really nice surprise! The food at the restaurant was just ok. But, the location of the restaurant, the entrance through "a cave" and the view are well worth the visit and the spend. Will definitely be back!

You might think that the hotel's name overstates things, but this is really a great hotel in a stunning location. The staff is very kind and helpful and the restaurant is great (if you stay at the hotel, ask for a voucher if you want to charge meals to the room). The rooms are pretty simple, but very comfortable. Highly recommended if you want to find a fabulous and (so far) undiscovered part of Mexico

Everything was very nice, the place is amazing, the only downside is that the building has very thin walls and you can hear everything happening on the rooms nearby.
