Our family of 4 (two young kids) had a wonderful time here. As others describe, Jazmin is a prompt correspondent despite being abroad. And her mother is an extremely warm host; another family member also jumped into provide some English translation, which we very much appreciated.

The neighborhood is delightful, everything you'd want after reading more generally about Coyoacan. The house is a Spanish colonial curiosity of the best sort, and the third floor veranda is all that the photo promises.

I strongly recommend staying here. Before you commit, though, note that two of the beds are large fold-out chairs. Our kids loved them, but they might not suffice for folks with bad backs. The main bedroom's king bed is worth arm-wrestling to win.
