Martha and her daughter were extremely accommodating hosts. The room they rent is actually the size of a flat! It is tastefully decorated, comfortable, spacious and full of light. I appreciated the homy touch (fruit basket, coffeemaker) and the sophisticated sense of detail with which the place was decorated (paintings, mirrors, tiles).

The building is equally tasteful, with the yard surrounded with columns and enhanced with yellow paint. Great spot for reading or working outside.

5 minutes away from the zocalo, Martha's place turned out to be a perfect base to discover Mexico City, from the animated yet peaceful neighborhood of Coyoacan.
