Blue Bicycle House

Querétaro


Located just on the edge of the center, with a view of the aqueduct, the Blue Bicycle House (look for the bicycle hanging outside) is a highlight of Querétaro's budget sleeping scene. It's small and basic and offers dorms, including one for women only. Beds are long by Mexican standards and one-hour bike use is included in the price.
