Our Rooms
Chico Mendez Room The smallest room in the house. It also faces the colonial well and is furnished with two rocking chairs, a ladies' vanity with mirror and the "best" artwork and graphics in the building. One double bed Air conditioned
La Kajera This room got its' name from the venerable dooryard orange tree that was sacrificed in order to build the room. Located on the mezzanine level, it is reached by a narrow stone stairway and has a screened balcony overlooking the colonial well. There is a large bi-level bath, a sofa, several chairs, 19th century doors and a stairway to nowhere! One double bed Air-conditioned
The Terrace/Balcony Rooms Three rooms (Enrique Granados, Pablo Cetina & El Palomar) each have a private balcony or terrace, desk, chairs, an armoire and nice artwork. Air conditioned Eking or Queen beds (2 twins available by request)
Rooms with Large Master These two are the Frida Kahlo Room and the Manuel de Falla Room. Each can accommodate 3 guests. These larger spaces face the pool area. Each is elegantly decorated and appointed with period furnishings. One queen and one twin bed Air-conditioned
El Mirador Casa Mexilio's Penthouse room. The most requested and most private room, fifty-two stair steps will get you to bed! It has a private terrace larger than the room itself and boasts a 300° view of the city. The decor is Mexican colonial - the ancient and rustic. In this room you get up early because the sun reaches these heights first, the city awakes early -- and the church bells seem louder, too. If you plan to spend your vacation in bed, don't choose this room. Eking bed Air-conditioned
