Balcón del Cielo

Location! It’s right next to the Pipila lookout, so the view is the best (and sorry the only good) part of this hotel. For solo female traveler who wishes to take time and shoot sunset/sunrise with tripod and camera, I would recommend as safer choice.

I really want to like this hotel, but it was overwhelming and I’m glad I only stayed a night. *I will definitely be back to Guanajuato itself though! 1- Check-in not available on time I had to wait 30min+ past promoted check-in time. 2- Room changed without notice I booked a room “with balcony” because my purpose was to take sunset/sunrise view from 2nd floor balcony, the best and safest spot for myself and camera. Nothing was mentioned upon check-in, then realized once opened the door, I got a 1st floor room “without balcony”. I asked, then the front agents suddenly stopped communicating in English and only respond when I use Spanish google-translation. First- oh because it’s all booked. Second- we have water pipe issues with all rooms with balcony... ??? 3- questionable CLEANLINESS Upon entering the room, not only I was shocked to realize I have no balcony but to look down the floor with hairs all over. And on table, around bed. They have no room to switch, so housekeeper came in to wipe briefly. 4- questionable CLEANLINESS And at last I found a dirty socks hanging behind the bed. 5- Room temperature It was chilly at night but there was only one thin sheet, and rolled up blanket in old cabinet- not encouraging to use.
