A simple and elegant retreat, with beautiful use of materials and generous natural light--even better than the photos! The ground floor living space provides a well-lit and serene, even meditative, space for enjoying a quiet breakfast or getting a little work done. On the second floor, brick vaulted ceilings and the wall of ivy outside our window made me feel like I was waking up in a secluded villa every morning, even though we were just a short walk away to the lively center of Coyoacan.
Maria and her parents were wonderful hosts, truly going above and beyond to make us feel at home. Upon our arrival, they greeted us with bottled water, milk, eggs, fruit and an assortment of fresh pastries. Her father, Ramon, was very helpful and attentive throughout our stay, giving us personalized recommendations as well as general travel advice. He even thoughtfully stopped by later during our stay to drop off some books on Coyoacan and Mexico City! Everything was clean, wifi was great, and plenty of hot water. We would absolutely stay here again--thank you Maria and Ramon!!!
