“Peaceful, off grid rural experience.”
Carlos’s property is beautiful and secluded. Our room was large and very comfortable with a good sized en-suite bathroom. Coffee/hot water and drinking water were available all day and the kitchen was well kitted-out. This is the perfect stay for anyone wanting to stay in nature, it was lovely and peaceful and was nice to relax in the hammocks outside. There was a supermarket a short walk away, and we were able to walk to the adventure park. Carlos arranged taxis for us to and from the train station as well. Carlos was a good host and was on hand for anything throughout our stay

“Quiet & Peaceful”
Very Quiet & remote it’s perfect for us as we can finally have some decent sleep. The owner (Carlos) was very friendly & accommodating even though our Spanish is so poor he did Put in a great effort to speak English with us.

When we were there (in may), there were no other guests which meant we had the whole place to ourselves. The hostel has everything you could possibly need. It's really nice to hike through the coppercanyon from here. Also bonus point for the fireplace and hammocks!

“Very disappointed”
The accommodation is spacious, has a good sized kitchen and communal space with TV. It is a little remote being outside of the village/town but it's only a 10 minute walk to a fairly well-stocked store with fresh fruit and veg. and a 15 minute walk to the rim of the canyon and a beautiful panoramic path that leads to the telefericio in the park. However, this property is very poorly managed. This is the first low-score review I have ever written and I have been backpacking for years and stayed at many, many hostels throughout the world. When things go wrong the manager/owner needs to be proactive in sorting the problem - there were no staff at the property and seemingly no one who could help us locally as we had no contact from anyone. The water ran out on the first evening we arrived. We had no access to flushing toilets or ability to wash for 2 nights/days. We also had barely little drinking water provided. Two of the gas hob rings don't work and one was arguably dangerous as it exploded as we tried to light it. This was once we had obtained a working lighter from the restaurant down the road as the only one we were able to find in the property had run out of gas. Ability to communicate any issues was also hampered by there being no WiFi at the property (unsure why as most places within the village had it) and very intermittent phone signal. It was very cold but there was a small heater in the dorm and extra blankets were available. There was no information or guide provided with regards to the facilities at the property, the local area or tours available.

“Shame about the poor management”
The place was nice, had extra blankets and a well equipped kitchen. Lots of DVDs to watch and some games. Beds were comfortable and there were lockers.

The accommodation is spotless and offers plenty of space for socializing. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need, and even the essentials—including eggs—are provided for free. The host is welcoming and always happy to assist.

“This was a great choice!”
Hostal Font offers a unique experience in the area. Carlos, the owner, has a very comprehensive knowledge of the Barrancas. We did the sunset and sunrise trek guided by him and both of them were exceptional. The hostel itself is comfortable and it has all you could need (except wifi), including an equipped kitchen. As a hostel you have the opportunity to spend time with other travelers. We enjoyed the company of the other guests and Carlos. The house has a location that allows you to see the sky full of stars if you walk a few meters from the entrance. We booked the private room and we could enjoy the firm bed after a long day of walking. We would definitely book the property again.

Awesome location, friendly and helpful host, tonnes of friendly dogs and a beautiful home base from where we were able to explore Barrancas del Cobre on foot without any issues. Loved it!

“Idyllic, cozy little nature cabin with everything you need.”
This place is very remote, and it's gorgeous. I booked a room and mostly had the whole house to myself except when two other tourists came, and we became friends. The house is right in nature, so secluded and private. The sunset was amazing. Free coffee and hot chocolate, and water filter for drinking water. Front porch. Laundry lines hung in the back to use if you wash clothes. Kitchen well-equipped for cooking. There's a cute living room with a TV and book case. The host Alessandra who let me in was very nice and asked if I needed anything on WhatsApp, but gave me a lot of space. A sweet dog visited me on the last day from somewhere, so I gave him some water.

Location is good, walking distance to shop and local restaurant and you can walk to the adventure park in about 30/45 minutes. Kitchen facilities are available. The walks and adventure park are great.

“Excellent”
We had a great time at Font's! Carlos, the host, is very friendly and helpful, and clearly cares about making sure his guests have a good time. The room was big and the bed had the most comfortable mattress we've slept on in Mexico. Kitchen was very well equipped and we got our own shelf in the fridge to keep things organized. There are friendly "community" dogs hanging out outside the house, which was a big plus as we really like dogs (they don't come in the house, for anyone who doesn't). Carlos also does tours and took us on a really nice tour to some nearby areas for a good price. All in all we can really recommend this hostel :)

“Amazing couple of days in a stunning area.”
This is early days for Carlos at Hostal Font’s. The house is a work in progress but Carlos ensured that there is everything you need for your stay while he has a programme of improvements to get it how he wants it down the line. The bed was super comfy and there was hot water in the basic but functional bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped for communal meals and it was fun cooking with another guest. Carlos ate with us and is a fun host. He ferried us around in his car (for a small cost) as it is about a 40 min walk into Divisadero itself. We did the fantastic sunrise trek that Carlos offers and it was unforgettably stunning. Plans for the future include making the house self sufficient with solar panels and composting toilets and we wish Carlos every success going forward,

“Fantástico”
We spent 3 nights at Hostel Font’s. Carlos was the ultimate host providing a warm welcome, clean, comfortable accommodations, and all the amenities you need. A restaurant and small store are a short walk away. Don’t miss the ‘Sunset Hike’! Thank you Carlos for everything and for leading us on a hiking tour that was pure magic and the highlight of our visit to Copper Canyon.
