Maru’s cottage is very private, clean, safe, centrally located in Coyocan and Maru and her family are delightful hosts. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen equipped, the decor is lovely. It can be surprisingly cool/cold in CDMX so bring some warm clothes. We were able to get around CDMX and out to the fringes very easily using car services. Coyocan is a really nice colonia with a very good mercado and many interesting places to visit, including the university, so you may be content to stay close.
