We arrived to the door and were able to use the codes to enter the door and the condo unit. Needed one more step to get out to unlock the door. The location in the historical centre was perfect. The condo was clean, and aired out with fresh linens. Luckily this unit faces an inside courtyard so that there was little street noise. January to March has cool mornings to warm afternoons and evenings with cool nights. An extra blanket was provided for use as well as a heater fan. This unit is set up for short term stays not long term as we were doing. Bottled large water containers were provided. For long term stay there could have been more cooking pots and more cooking utensils. The communication was direct and the responses immediate. for example, the water cistern for toilet and showers was empty on a Sunday night and it was refilled within 1-2 hours. The hot water for showers was a bit smelly. The weekly cleaning service was excellent. If something was broken or needed repair it was attended to as soon as possible. When a light fixture fell from the ceiling, it was repaired the next morning. Good garbage access. We tried to recycle plastics and metals in the recycling bins provided in the parks and streeets. We really enjoy our stay where we explored the city and its suburbs and local attractions. We made friends with the local friendly neighbours who were happy to share local need to know details. Where to eat, where to buy and what was what. They welcomed us.

The unit was clean but the bed was very hard and the pillows lumpy. BUT it was in a fabulous location!! It was an easy walk to the Cathedral and all the key spots in the historic district. The 9 Esquinas was basically across the road and had some really great restaurants. Had some confusion with the entry codes but the property manager sent someone right away to help us. Overall a great experience in Guadalajara. We would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at 9 esquinas. The apartment is spacious and very quiet at night. The nearby Birria restaurants on the small plazas are wonderful and it is a short walk to centre of the city. A couple of things in the description aren't correct. Check-in was at 3 pm and not 1pm as given This wasn't a problem for us but could leave you waiting for a couple of hours. There is no washing machine and dryer as listed in the ammenities but there is a laundromat nearby, and Sergio the building manager kindly sent us instructions how to get there. The keypad entry lock on the front door is also a bit termperamental and we had issues getting in a few times. Again, Sergio was very helpful and sent someone to let us in. The apartment is on the ground floor and the windows to the inner courtyard do not lock properly. But the neighbourhood is very safe and the outside doors are always locked. All in all this is a great place and I would highly recommend it.

Returning to Guadalajara and to Pitaya was truly a wonderful experience for us. Pitaya is right at the center and within walking distance from many historical landmarks in town. It’s an old building very well kept . Communication with Susana is immediate and she’s available to solve any issues at a moment’s notice. We’ll be returning to Pitaya soon!
