Amazing hostel and in a great location ! The walk around shows you a lot of nice places around the area. Staff if super friendly and helpful. Room was cool and very clean. They even have an onsite restaurant which is very convenient. Laundry service is very cheap. Overall amazing experience if you can book this place book it !
I stayed at Leveli Coliving & Hostel during the World Cup and had an amazing experience. I originally visited Guadalajara for business, but I ended up enjoying the city so much that it became one of the highlights of my trip. The combination of a great location, welcoming community, and outstanding hospitality made my stay truly memorable. The staff provided exceptional service from start to finish and made me feel welcome throughout my stay. The property is well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. I loved my room, and there were always plenty of bathrooms and showers available, which made everything very comfortable. I was able to get great rest, and the community atmosphere was warm, friendly, and welcoming. The location is fantastic, I could walk almost everywhere and easily explore Guadalajara. There's also a great coffee spot in the lobby. The managers go above and beyond by organizing all kinds of tours, activities, and experiences, making it easy to meet people and enjoy the city. I'm definitely coming back soon to spend more time in Guadalajara. And if you're traveling through Mexico, be sure to check out their other amazing location in Oaxaca City as well. Highly recommended!
"I spent most of my time at the patio (shared space)."
I stayed in a single-bed private room (shared toilet and shower) on the third floor for several nights in February 2026.
Pros...
- Staff are kind and friendly.
- Towel.
- Air conditioning.
- Kitchen (separate refrigerators for private room and dormitory guests).
Cons...
- No hair dryer.
- Smoking is allowed in some outdoor shared spaces (only staff smoke, and you can smell it 5 meters away).
Others...
- Two toilets and two showers on the third floor.
- Cafe on the first floor.
- Frequent WhatsApp messages from staff (even after checkout).
- WiFi 1.5Mbps at 16:00. 2.4Mbps in shared spaces at 21:00.
Exceptionally clean co living. It's essentially a 5 star hotel with a shared well. Equipped kitchen. Laundry service onsite was good. They didn't shrink my clothes. The beds are very comfortable with high end cotton linen. There's a breakfast style cafe onsite open untill 2pm. Best Chilequilles with eggs I've had in a few years. Walkable to ATM, pharmacy, grocery store, restaurants ,and smaller late night corner stores. Quiet hours begin at 10pm. They are fairly strict about that, I think it should be 11pm. That's the only thing negative I have to say. Stayed on vacation, alone, in Superior Private double room with private en suite bathroom.
*I'm editing this review, after the preposterous response from the business owner.
1) no misunderstanding. You didn't reply to my messages on the WhatsApp group. I asked for reimbursement on there and was ignored. Yet somehow it's my fault.
2) I went with your volunteer to Tlaquepaque. No one went by public transport. We all went together in an Uber. This wasn't a "choice" as you're making out.
3) you're right, I only saw you on the final day of my stay when checking out. That doesn't mean I was "in my room the whole time" 😂. It means you werent working the shifts when I came and went. We were out of your hostel all day every day exploring Guadalajara and Tequila 🤷♂️
Interestingly, there always seems to be "misunderstanding" when people leave a bad review. No acknowledgement of any wrongdoing at all. A great way to run a business.
Do yourself a favour and stay elsewhere, this place stinks.

I'm not one to complain much about properties I book, but this hostel was very strange.
We arrived late after a delayed flight and were lucky there was someone on reception to let us in at 4am, as the check in instructions they had provided to us beforehand were wrong. The codes to enter the building were entirely incorrect.
The next day we were invited to the hostels Whatsapp group for it's social activities - a nice idea! That night, one of the staff members was taking out a group to Tlaquepaque to join in the celebrations for Day Of The Dead. We joined the group, but I was asked to pay for the Uber to get a group of us there. Stupidly I accepted. A few people disappeared as soon as we got there, so I asked the staff member to help me get the funds back and kindly asked on the Whatsapp group too. I was ignored by everyone (including the staff), so essentially I paid £20 of my own money to get a group of people staying at the hostel to an event they were putting on.
More signs required to ask selfish guests not to take 25 minute showers when there are only 2 showers with hot water in the entire building. I know the hostel can't control how long people take, but some signs to remind people may help. I managed one hot shower across 3 days.
There's a lot of long stay people at this hostel, it has a very odd vibe.
The positives are it's located not far from the main sights of the city - around 15 minutes walk. Beds were comfortable and air con worked well.
Antonio excellent place to relax and meet people from all over te world. The rooms aré comfotable and very clean, everything from bathrooms to the kitchen, the kitchen Is super big, and the garden Is a place you could spend all day. The staff and volunteers at recepción aré super friendly and helpful
I recently stayed at Leveli Hostel and was very disappointed with the overall experience. The kitchen was especially frustrating - the Teflon pans were completely scratched up and covered in soot, making them almost unusable. The water dispenser in the kitchen was *always* empty, no matter what time of day I checked. On top of that, the dishes were constantly piled up on the drying rack, giving the kitchen a chaotic and unclean feeling.
The bathrooms weren’t much better. There was *never* any toilet paper available, which is something I would expect a hostel to restock regularly.
What bothered me as well was that some of the staff seemed to be drinking during their shifts, which did not create a professional atmosphere.
Leveli is the perfect place to stay if you're working remotely. The café and coworking space made it super easy to get work done without needing to leave the hostel. Plus, the location in Colonia Americana is super close to great restaurants, bars, and cultural activites (museums, art galleries, etc). Definitely recommend it if you're a digital nomad or just want a cool place to stay in Guadalajara!
