Pascual L.
Don't stay here, especially if you're a woman. I never stayed at the property, but I booked through Expedia, and the whole thing ruined a few days of my life with calls. Expedia eventually refunded me from its own pocket after seeing the owner's replies. Below are some of our messages about the cancelled booking. His later comments got even stranger, and Google limits how much I can include. He seems to have thought I was a woman, judging by his last message. I feel sorry for women if this is how he really treats them. Me: You charged my card $1000 without my knowledge. The charge was declined, but I still had to call the card company to unblock my card. I cancelled the reservation at your hotel. That's no way to treat customers. Dickinson Guest House, Expo Center: We hold an amount for room service. It is only authorized. We apologize for any inconvenience. Me: $1000 for room service? A family could eat for a month for that. What are you serving? Haha. It wasn't an authorization, it was clearly a charge. An authorization happens when I arrive at the hotel. You can't use my card as you wish before I even get there. Dickinson Guest House, Expo Center: It was a mistake. We authorize for large events that book late and cancel or don't show up. I am so sorry you are upset. The proper steps have been taken to talk to the reservationist and take the needed steps to resolve this faux pas. Have a great time in Guadalajara. I suspect you will be attending the Ferretera. It's a great event every year. Me: You charged my card for a cancelled reservation. I cancelled within Expedia's allowed time, but you still charged $245.62. Please return the money. I'm reporting you to Expedia as a rogue hotel and will make sure they kick you off Expedia. I'm also escalating this to Visa and Mastercard. Dickinson Guest House, Expo Center: Excuse me, I did not take your reservation, but am concerned with this new revelation. If you feel you need to contact the WhiteHouse, that is what you should do as a proud American citizen, holding crooks accountable for their actions, as stupid and so easily exposeable it would be. I will make sure you get back what is yours, and deal with those who were not trained properly at refunds. I need to look it up. I am in the states for a funeral. I will take care of this asap. I am sorry you are Read More Me: You don't even know whether I'm an American citizen, and it doesn't matter if I am. Stop the drama, get to work, and return the stolen money. Don't act innocent. You know you tried to charge me $1000 when I made this reservation, so before calling anyone a crook, take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Dickinson Guest House, Expo Center: Report what you wish, my princess. You WILL be my wife. I must first save enough money to buy a very strong 24 carat gold ring- for your nose. No, 12 carat will be stronger. So when I drag you to the market to sell you for excellent, but a little tough in places, the beef steaks will sell quickly. Then I can get my ring back. Please send me a picture of yourself. My love for you grows daily, my honey pot. Kisses , my dearest one.

My friends and I had a great time and appreciated the security and open spaces around this nice Mexican neighborhood. The house is a short walk from the largest convention center in Latin America, and it seems to attract convention visitors partly because of the business amenities. Unlike many places, it doesn't triple the rent when a big convention comes to town, which can save a group traveling together a lot while still giving them the comforts of home. It's called a bed and breakfast, but James Dickinson also rents the whole property to guests he thinks will take good care of his lovely home. I recently discovered it, tucked in plain sight among the Riu Plaza, the new Westin, and Hilton Hotels.

I booked a room a month ahead and had paid in advance for my safety. I arrived late to check in because of a personal matter, and found that they'd given my room to another customer. Now they're refusing to refund my money, so I'll take legal action. This was a very bad experience. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone. Zero stars.

Mari, James and Karim, thanks for your tips about moving to México. I really appreciate your help and hospitality, and hope I can do business here again soon!

The house was lovely and made me feel at home the whole time. I could cook for myself in the kitchen, and ordering groceries online helped me save money.
