Great place for family gathering! I loved the inside decor! Absolutely beautiful place! I understand the beautiful art which is why there are cameras in the inside living room area and patio, but that was something that I didn’t read in the description. Overall wonderful place!

We have stayed in Airbnbs around the world, and this was truly one of the best locations we have experienced. I would highly recommend it. Three architects were in our party, and we absolutely loved the atmosphere, the views, and the way the home sits within its surroundings. It was well appointed, comfortable, and even better than the photos suggest. For a large group, it felt both spacious and cozy, which is not easy to achieve. I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed this home. Will visit again!

We had a wonderful stay at Mary’s Airbnb in Guanajuato. The house was extremely clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. It was honestly one of the highlights of our trip, and everyone felt right at home. We especially appreciated having multiple bathrooms, which made getting ready much easier for our group. The views from both the suite and the rooftop were absolutely stunning and one of our favorite parts of the stay. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood that felt very safe. As someone who visits Mexico often, I preferred staying here over being in the busy city center because it was much more peaceful. There is a parking lot about 5–7 minutes away where we parked overnight for around 200 pesos. Keep in mind that most restaurants and attractions are closer to downtown, and the steep streets can make walking difficult. Guanajuato is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve visited, though more expensive than many others in Mexico. Overall, our stay at Mary’s was fantastic !

Great place just like the pictures. Beautiful home. We loved the themed rooms. House was clean and very well stocked kitchen. Enjoyed the terrace at night with some music and drinks. The only thing I have to say only for transparency to someone reading reviews is if you have mobility issues this place is not for you. My mother in law had a hard time getting to and from the home. Overall great place to stay. We loved the host with how helpful she was with our questions. Gracias Casa de Colores!

We loved our stay at Mary's place in Guanajuato. The house is very spacious, very well equipped, and every corner is decorated with lots of details! It looks much better than in the photos! The beds are comfortable, and the terrace has a beautiful view. Mary communicated with us excellently and was very flexible about check-in and check-out times, which allowed us to enjoy the place a little longer. A few points to keep in mind: there is no parking; you have to look for spaces on the street; the street is somewhat steep; and it is a bit far from downtown. The trip there is quite easy since it's downhill; the trip back is more difficult. However, you can easily find taxis that drop you off very close to the house. I highly recommend this house for spending a few days with family or friends.
