It was superb The best hostel stay of my trip (and I've been going for 6 months). The manager 'Aniesa' (not sure of spelling) was great and made sure everybody had a good time. Can't recommend a place more highly. Yours,. Bob

Excellent place! I had a private room with TV for about $20 US. (No remote, however.) The owner is very friendly, and so is his staff. There's a nice terrace overlooking the city on top of the main building. One thing: Zacatecas gets very cold at night in December. I had to use the blankets from two beds to stay warm. For people who have only one bed, I hope they provide extra covers on request. My only real complaint is that my bathroom had no toilet paper, even after housekeeping came.

Ernesto makes lot of effort to keep up good atmosphere & help people have an enjoyable stay.Great night outs & parties.Other staff seemed bit grumpy at times.When we stay in a hostel we don't expect included breakfast or laundry;but when advertised online it should be available.We had to take our laundry to an expensive place;coffee only available at times;breakfast not at all.Upstairs kitchen poorly equipped; used our own cutlery as none there.In total we enjoyed our stay a lot.Recommended!

Ernesto was so nice and helpful and greeted us with a free tequilla shot! He answered all of our questions and gave us a beautiful room with a wonderful view. The location is excellent, just a short walk to anything and everything. We only stayed one night but i wish we could have stayed longer!! I definitely recommend Hostel Villa Colonial, it's one of the best hostel's I've ever stayed in!

The location is outstanding, the staff super - Juan Jo, Felipe, and the cleaning family. There is a library plus WiFi 24/7. I enjoyed room 6A. Met some Canadian and Japanese visitors over morning tea. Make sure the night watchman is reminded not to slam doors, trudge up the stairways, and drag metal furniture in the middle of the night on the patio over or near your room, and you will be content all the way around. Superlative views of city and Duomo d/n from room 5 (Aguacalientes) and 10.

This hostel was amazing! The owner, Ernesto, was extremely friendly and eager to help and threw a margarita party for the hostel on Saturday night. The hostel was located right near a ton of bars, restaurants and the town's main cathedral. The view from the rooftop patio was stunning and we had an amazing stay here! I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

This is a great hostel situated right behind the cathedral. From the first day, I felt like I was part of the hostel. I met cool people of all ages, chilled out on the terrace with a beautiful view of Zacatecas at night, enjoyed the festivities and took the daytrip to La Quemada. But what topped all else was Ernesto, the owner, who took us out every night to the coolest spots in town and once even invited us to have dinner with his family. I really miss this place and wish I had stayed longer!

The managers, Ernesto and Philipe, go out of their way to take care of their guests. We appreciated the open nightly conversation in the loft among international guests and the friendly environmend in the house. A highlight is the terrace on the roof overlocking the city. We are sorry to have missed the weekly Margarite party on Thursday. Villa Colonial is a first pick! Gabriele and Joachim from Stuttgart/Alemania
