From the minute Minerva’s son Hector met me and my partner at the airport we felt well looked after. We were greeted warmly and he kindly took us to the central bus station so that we could purchase our ongoing bus tickets that we had been unable to book from the UK. On arrival at Villa Alfonsina we met the wonderful, kind Minerva. We couldn’t have had a better introduction to Mexican hospitality. Minerva was very keen to make sure that we had everything we needed and even invited us to join her for a late breakfast, where we had a most interesting and enjoyable conversation using Google translate. The accommodation is gorgeous and it felt like a privilege to stay in such a beautiful traditional home. The location is perfect. Coyoacan is a very safe and gentle introduction to Mexico City and we loved everything about our stay. It was a joy to meet such warm and caring people. Highly recommended.
