Maria and her home has been my favorite location in all the AirBnB's. Not just in Mexico. I feel like I am at home when I stay there. The garden is like "My Secret Garden" . There are 2 trees in the back yard that are the oldest in Mexico City and probably the largest. The beds are comfortable. Be sure to schedule at least one dinner cooked by the staff - Esperanza and served by Efrian, the full time staff. Anyone who might think Mexico may be dangerous, should stay here as it is the safest place I know of. Also use Uber to get around don't rent a car .
Maria's last name is Ludlow. Her family came from England in the middle 1800's. Her great grandfather owned a tin mine in the south UK. When the tin ran out he packed all the mining equipment and put it on a ship to Mexico then took it to the mountains of Mexico. Copies of Silver certificates adorn the guest bathroom wall. The home has so many stories and pictures yet is up to date while still having lots of patina. Maria speaks excellent English, she is a doctor and teaches Montessori. If you can get her to take you on a tour of the City you will be really lucky. She does not do it for everyone and you have to really want to know about history. Maria, Efrian and Esperanza are wonderful people. There are 4 separate suites upstairs.
For lunch, there is a small restaurant just across the street and to the left of the front door. Not open for dinner. You must try it. There are a number of other places to eat within a short walking distance. Across the the road to the right there is a large park. All safe.
If you are looking to feel the real Mexico City, plan to stay here.
