Staying at Villa Alfonsina was marvelous and I highly recommend this beautiful home to anyone staying for a short trip or long-term like we did.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two months. While much of Mexico City is loud and busy, the Coyoacan neighborhood and this home are peaceful and welcoming. The neighborhood is thirving with cultural events, including gallery shows, festivals, free live music, artisenal craft markets, gardens and museums. The people of Coyoacan were always very welcoming and we never felt like outsider tourists.

This Villa is perfect for anyone staying alone or with company. Minerva and her family will gladly welcome you to a clean room with fresh linens and lovely amenities. The house and rooms are well thought-out spaces. The communal kitchen is well stocked with the necessities to prepare your own meals. The courtyard is always well kept with beautiful trimmed roses lining the driveway. There is also a lovely outdoor dining and sunning area. While Minerva and her family are happy to welcome you to chat, dine or even go places with them, they are also content to let you have your privacy.

In short, I highly recommend staying with this lovely family!
