This was my home base for 10 days in Coyoacán, and I would stay again! It’s in a great area, and the locked courtyard feels very secure. Amenities and qualities of Sebastian’s place that I appreciated were comfy bed linens, loads of space for storage (desk and dresser drawers, plus a free-standing closet with hangers), lots of natural light, a lovely plant-filled courtyard, and, just steps from the door, access to a kitchen with microwave, mini fridge, and a hot water kettle.
Sebastian was very friendly, but never intruded on my privacy. And when there was a short lack of running water in the unit (it’s Mexico; these things happen), he quickly provided a bucket of water for toilet flushing, and even brought a basin of warm water so I could wash my face.
Paola and her partner Miguel also live in the compound, and are lovely people. I very much appreciated Paola’s patience with my “Spanglish”. And their sweet, gorgeous dog, Chita, made my stay there doubly enjoyable.
