Our six night stay with Laura and Paco was an outstanding time.
From the start, our communication with Pato was always efficient and prompt.
When one goes to a different country, it is about meeting the people. Laura, Paco, and their family are exceptional human beings who opened their home with warmth and generosity. We had good conversations about food, sport, culture, and other topics in both English and Spanish.
Laura and Paco grew up and raised their family in Mexico City, so they know it extremely well. They could guide us which were the best and prettiest routes from a metro stop in order to get to our destination each day, which was greatly appreciated.
There are two rooms available both with full beds with new high quality mattresses [so very comfortable]. Our room was large and light with a small balcony, a huge walk in closet and cable TV. One shares the bathroom, which has a good shower, with the guests next door, but it was never a problem.
There is a tiled patio on the roof where you can hang out as there is a small table and chairs. The entire home is spotlessly clean .
The house itself is in a secure courtyard and in a very safe neighborhood with the metro a five minute walk. Across Avenida Revolution, there is a market, parks, small cafes, and shops. A large supermarket is one metro stop or a ten minute or less walk from the house.
In the morning, we would make a fruit salad as Laura has platters of beautiful fresh fruit with freshly brewed coffee as we made our plans for the day. The kitchen is available for light use, there is a water filter system so we could fill our water bottles, and use the fridge for some food we purchased.
Mexico City is a fantastic city to explore with great museums, parks, and food... so much color in every way! Our trip was even more memorable and enjoyable because we chose Laura and Paco to be our hosts. We felt like we were part of the family for those few days. Muchas gracias.
