Everything about my stay at Villa Conchita was wonderful. I arrived late at night, but Hector was there to let me in and get me situated with no problems. I was in Mexico City for a wedding, so was busy with plans for the first several days I stayed in Coyoacan, but when I arrived home each night, I had a beautiful, comfortable room waiting for me with reliable internet, purified water, and even a TV with netflix! Once my friends had left town, I had more of an opportunity to meet others who were staying at the house, and it was such a nice community to experience. Minerva and her family are very gracious hosts and their warmth and thoughtfulness helped to foster a wonderful dynamic amongst all of the guests, I think.

The location across from the Frida Kahlo house on Calle Allende was also perfect - an easy walk to everything in town. If it was later on at night when I went home, it was no problem at all to catch a cab there from the town square, even with my limited Spanish, as everyone knew exactly where Frida Kahlo's house/Casa Azul was. And it really wasn't far (5 blocks?) or dangerous really, I was just being extra cautious by catching cabs after dark.

I would highly recommend staying at Villa Conchita in Coyoacan - for the hosts, the location, and the lovely room. I really enjoyed my time there and hope to return one day.
