This place is a gem!!
We had a wonderful time staying at Bettina's place. my wife and I are seasoned travelers, we have been lucky enough to stay in some wonderful places, and we have to say that Bettina's place was terrific.
She is a wonderful, thoughtful and cheerful host. She provided suggestions for food and entertainment in the neighbourhood that really enriched our experience.
The space itself is a lovely, clean apartment across a courtyard from her main area that provides privacy during your stay. The bed is FANTASTIC. We slept very well. The apartment is one large room with a terrace above. We suggest having breakfast on the terrace.
Oh, and the Cantina literally one hundred metres from the house is great for an authentic meal. Get the "daily menu" or "Menu del Dia" and they will just keep bringing you delicious food. Also, we loved the neighborhood. We found it safe, friendly and very picturesque.
Mexico City was a great surprise for us, but it was our host Bettina who really helped make our trip exceptional. Also, shout outs to Rocco the dog. Good natured, adorable and protective, we loved giving him pats when we got home. We hope to return as we now feel we have a friend in this great place.
Viva Mexico City!
