Big breakfast, Big beds.
Small B@B with four well-appointed rooms only one block from the plaza. Very friendly and helpful staff that speak good English. An excellent full cooked breakfast is served everyday with many choices. The attached restaurant also serves family style Spanish cuisine in the courtyard, with live music in the early evenings usually on weekends.

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay was fantastic. Meson Don Quijote, located in downtown Ajijic, a short walk to stores, restaurants, and the beautiful Plaza, allowed us to experience authentic Mexican culture, removed from the pretensions of destination resorts. The staff was quite amiable, providing a delicious breakfast daily, and a spotless room. The in-house garden restaurant was the best we experienced in Ajijic, thanks to Adriano, the beautiful and friendly chef who insisted everyone speak Spanish. The room offered a single chair, a modest oversight; otherwise, it was quite comfortably furnished.

The property had clean bright airy rooms in a characterful building. There is a restaurant serving Spanish style food and a bar with occasional music in the early evening. A cooked breakfast was served on the patio amongst the potted plants and mature trees. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful stay...like many travelers to Ajijic, we visited to check out retiring there. Paola, the owner is also in real estate and took a day to show us around and a couple of houses to give us a feel of the area. We're making plans to return next year. The food was good, the staff is very courteous. We were very pleased...rates and A+

Friendly Staff / Good Location
The location is excellent. The staff is welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed the breakfast on the patio. We had fresh fruit, eggs, and bacon along with coffee/tea. The restaurant onsite has great food. We had appetizers there one afternoon. The room we stayed in was a bit tired, but we didn't mind too much. It was clean. I would've liked to have had one more bath towel in the room. Two were provided. We stayed in a king room away from the street but close to the kitchen, so it was fairly quiet. The shower had good pressure and hot water. Although we brought our own, a 2-in-1 shampoo, lotion, and mini bar soap were provided. The bed was on the harder side, but we like that, so it was comfortable to us. There was a nice TV on the wall and a fan in the room.

Small boutique B&B.
Room was adequate and checkin was good. Location a short block off the carretera and easy walk to Town Square. Breakfast was very good with fruit first and eggs cooked any way you want them. It was very informal to our liking.

Beautiful bnb in Ajijic
Some websites do not properly indicate that the manager will expect cash and does not accept credit cards. Pay via your booking website if you want to use a credit card. The bed and breakfast is very nice and centrally located to restaurants, theatres, and clubs within a very short distance. The malicon walkway near the edge of Lake Chapala is perhaps 15 blocks away. Calle Colon is a good street with lots of pretty shops and restaurants to take down to the lake.

Downtown small B&B and restaurant
Nice place w/ only 4 rooms. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The room was basic but OK; I think all 5 face the street, but it's quite enough at night, until the first bus goes by at 7:30 AM and then the traffic picks up. No air con, it was warm in mid-May so had to keep the windows open as long as possible at night but running the fan (floor model already in room) made a big difference. Right downtown, less than 5 min walk to the Plaza Central, many restaurants nearby, maybe 10 min down to the lake. The restaurant is Spanish, not Mexican, and what I had was really good and really Spanish. Includes breakfast, which was fashioned for Anglos, but I asked one morning for Mexican breakfast and they accommodated the request. Coffee in the room, which is good because breakfast doesn't start until 9.
