Beautiful inn, with unique rooms and a unique winding floor plan, kind of maze-like. Lovely dining area open to the top floor that served a good and filling breakfast that was included with the room. Large open patio on the top floor. Clean cozy rooms. Very reasonably priced. Would not hesitate to stay here again when we return to Guanajuato.
