Charlie, Thanks for joining gtolist.com and for your comments.

The general hospital is located in Colonia Burocratas [I think that is what the area is called] and some apartments can be found there [link] but it is better to say that the hospital is behind the long distance bus station and that there are many city bus routes that go there. This frees up your choice of location so you can find something more in el centro. There's not much to do in the area around the hospital. I'd suggest checking with the local program director here to see if the Secretria de Salud has its own transport from downtown to the hospital. The DIF which has an optometry program with Indiana University [which in turn has a sub-program with the University of Melbourne] has its own transport which takes the interns to work every morning.

October is a busy time in Guanajuato. It is when the annual Cervantino Festival is held. Busy but not impossible. Many places boost their rates but I learned long ago its better to have a full house than high rates and empty beds. [for my rentals at www.guanajuatorentals.com two of the three are already booked and the remaining one has only one bedroom] You can try an e-mail to Bernardo at www.gtomex.com. His website is also geared to vacation rentals but he is also a local real estate agent with other listings that are not on the website.
