Truly a home away from home in a beautiful location: downtown Coyoacán. We stayed here six weeks and were lucky to be the first guests in the Garay's house. The house is separate from the main property, so you have the independence you want, but Rocio (Arlette's mom) and family are a few steps away for whenever you need some family vibes or even a homecooked meal, which is delicious! They are all super friendly and are very knowledgeable about anything you need to know about Coyoacán or Mexico City. The food in the nearby market and around the little streets is amazing. Try the pozoles estilo Michoacán in the little corner market or Tacos Tres Coyotes around the corner.

The house is itself is very spacious and the rooms are lovely. Anything we needed help with (e.g. more gas for the water heater) the family was there to immediately and gladly assist us. The house is fresh even on hot days. There is a lovely little backyard where you can bbq or just hang out. The friendly chihuahua guard dogs (Güerito and Panchito) will join in.

Overall, couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend this hidden gem in Coyoacán.
