Erhu House

Es una casa antigua convertida en hostel, intentando recrear el estilo japones wabi-sabi. Las literas tienen cortina, un armario pequeno con llave, flexo de luz y varios enchufes. Se puede cocinar, lavar la ropa a mano en un pila y disfrutar de todos los rincones de la casa, especialmente de la terraza con la hoguera por la noche. Pascual y Braulio estan siempre para ayudarte en todo y los totopos que hacen para el desayuno son caseros.

This was a great place to start my trip. The owner has given hostel a unique wabi sabi style and took the time to explain and show me around the house. The location of the hostel is IDEAL! Just blocks away from markets, cathedrals and museums; it’s also an easy walk to Chapultepec and just blocks away from the metro that can take you all over town. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking to really get to know the city!

This is a *very* unique hostel, basically a large, rather funky apartment with a big terrace. Staff is really friendly and accommodating and I had a great time with Braulio and Lej, the owner. Location is really great right on the edge of Colonia Americana and walking distance to the historic center. It's an old building so has mold, beware if you are sensitive but it's a real authentic urban Mexican experience probably best suited to more adventurous types. Hot showers were a nice surprise!
