AN IDEAL LOCATION : FACING THE TRAIN STATION
AND A QUICK 5MN WALK TO THE CENTER AND TO
THE MAIN MUSEUMS (CASA DE PANCHO VILLA, QUINTA GAMEROS)

We could not dream of a better location, being right in front of the
train station to the Copper Canyon, so that our customers can just
wake up and jump into the 2 early trains.
It is also quite useful as the train arrives late, so no night taxi
can force you to pay abusive prices to the center.
Sleep comfortably in our hostel and just walk to the center
the next day while we watch your luggage at the hostel

ADDRESS

Casa Chihuahua
Calle Mendez 2203
Chihuahua, Mexico
