Living in the coliving feels like living in your new home abroad. Its located in the historic center of Guadalajara, close to anything you would need in your daily life + a train station that connects you to much of the city. The house is beautifully decorated and the host makes sure that the inhabitants are fit to suit the vibe of the house, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The tasks are very fair and well communicated and the schedule is never exceeded. Bonus: you will be living with 3 sweet cats!

I had a great time at the coliving; I enjoyed my stay. Alam is very flexible with the schedules and the tasks as long as they are carried out. The house is pleasant, very green and very clean; there are many young people with whom you can socialize. The location is very central, basically within walking distance of the center and other places. It is a place that I will surely continue visiting.

The coliving was a great experience during my volunteering, I am very grateful to Alan who welcomed me and is also an excellent host. I am very grateful for opening the doors to his house, also for the moments and experiences shared, so many that gave me the desire to stay; I always felt happy to be here. I shared with Alan, other guests and one more volunteer. I learned a lot from the host and he was always patient in explaining the tasks to be performed and is always attentive to the details of how to improve it. We shared the work in many moments and also meals and chats.

Casa Margarito is a home away from home. From day one, Alam was very kind, going beyond what had been agreed, with a lot of freedom and dedication on his part regarding tasks, meals, and schedules. I felt very comfortable, I made friends.
I recommend this space if you want to connect with the local culture since you will have time to enjoy the beautiful Guadalajara.
I would definitely return to Casa Margarito!
