Family Style Breakfast
Very nice place, wonderful breakfast and very quiet, great location, great neighborhood, a little overpriced for the neighborhood, but I would recommend it very highly if you like family style breakfast in the morning with all the other guests.

The Coyoacán neighbourhood is delightful and the Guest House is about 10 minutes walk to the plaza and 15 minutes to the Coyoacan Metro station. Frieda Kahlo’s house and the Mercado are just around the corner and the Trotsky museum is also close by. There are a few good restaurants a few minutes walk away and an Oxxo for snacks etc.
Fernando and Jorge serve excellent coffee and breakfast each morning at nine but they are flexible if you need to be a little earlier or later. The shared table with other guests is an excellent way to meet fellow travellers.
The standard room with a shared terrace is fine but the second one where we stayed on our return was disappointing - no terrace, a double bed and no hot water in the basin. Lots of hot water in the shower however.
We really appreciated having a bag stored while we travelled to other parts of Mexico and being able to use the garden space while we waited for our afternoon flight.

It's where you want to stay in Coyoacan - the location is perfect for all the things you would want to do in the neighborhood, but on a quiet street. The daily breakfasts, private balconies, and the incredible hosts were all worth coming back for.

The place is located within walking distance of all the attractions that the neighborhood of Coyoacan is known for. Fernando made sure that we felt welcomed throughout our stay in his beautiful home. He is a great host. Besides the breakfast was delicious!

It is a beautiful property and the room had a lovely balcones. The breakfasts were plentiful and great. The only problem was that WiFi was dicey: a different server/pw on the balcones than in the room, and the wifi in the room only worked on my iPad, not my iPhone (the phone worked using mobile data)

Oasis in Coyoacan
Absolutely loved our stay at Maria del Alma hotel. It's in the heart of the Coyoacan District in Mexico City, within walking distance of the main square, restaurants, cafes, shops, MUSEUMS, and old fashion mercados. You wouldn't imagine Coyoacan is inside an enormous metropolis, it feels like a small town filled with beautiful old homes, huges trees and clean and orderly streets. The hotel itself has a beautiful garden and is an old and very well kept home from the 1930's. It has everything that you need and expect in a good hotel. The owner, Fernando takes care of you and gives you good advice on the local places to visit. Fernando is a retired accountant, restaurant owner and a very good chef. He prepares delicious breakfasts which he personally serves to his guests. He speaks perfect English and Spanish and I suspect even more languages. His hotel is like an oasis inside a colonial town inside a huge and marvelous city. Definitely worth the stay.

If you’re looking for a safe quiet, family home in a quaint part of the city, look no further. Maria del Alma Guest house is tranquil. Enough privacy between guests when sitting outside the rooms but also a bit of a community vibe, especially with breakfast time when you meet the other travelers. Fernando or his brother will greet you any time of day or night upon your arrival. The breakfast was hearty to be completely honest. The coffee leaves a lot to be desired. I guess I’m a coffee snob. there’s green grass, songbirds, and flowers in the courtyard of the house. The house is decorated and arranged in a theme to be like Frida Kahlo‘s house, which is only three minutes walk. The centre of Coyoacan is about five minutes walk and it’s bustling at times. Many food options and drinking options. Entertainment in the Square at night. It’s a short walk to San Angel.
I booked on Expedia with a nonrefundable reservation, which I never do. However, I was not disappointed. Maria del Alma House is the perfect spot in Coyoacán.

My time at the Maria del Alma Guest House was wonderful. I was traveling by myself and I felt very well cared for by the Guest House. Everyone was very helpful with transportation ideas, places to go and see and making sure I was comfortable. I will stay at Maria del Alma Guest House again. It was peaceful, clean, safe and the homemade breakfast was fantastic. Many thanks!
