It's a little hard to convey just how amazing staying here was, but I'm going to try.
1. The house: The house is a gorgeous old house that I think had some famous Cubans living in it at one point. It's got so much character, and is very charming.
2. The location: It's a short walk from the Coyoacan main square, the mercado, the metro station, and Francisco Sosa, which is lined with museums and cafes and lots of other interesting things to check out. There was always so much going on in the surrounding neighborhood, but the house generally didn't have any noise issues. Even when there were firecrackers in other parts of Coyo, it was quiet at the house - although sometimes I think there's a music school adjacent, and they would be singing until a little late at night. I loved that though, it felt like being serenaded.
3. The family: I loved getting to be a part of the family. Luz was an absolute sweetheart and made me soup when I got sick. I got to know some of the ballet dancers, who were lovely. There's always so much life in the house, in between the family and the ballet school and the other guests. It made me feel so at home. And whenever I wanted privacy, my room had it's own entrance and nobody would come near.
There's so much more I could say, but the long and short of it is that I think this has ruined all other Airbnbs for me, because they'll never quite measure up. I loved it.
