Ming was there to welcome us, and introduce her housekeeper Socorro who proved to be a very delightful, accommodating person. Fortunately, our group spoke enough Spanish collectively to get along with Socorro. The breakfasts and a couple of dinners were very well prepared. Overall, we were satisfied with the Holiday House. The location in San Felipe de Agua was further away from the downtown area than we anticipated. It took 20-30 minutes to travel to Zocalo, and taxis cost more like 100 pesos for 4 people rather than the 40 pesos mentioned on the website. It is right on two bus routes. The house could use some TLC – drawers that were hard to pull out, a small bathroom with slippery tiled shower, a slanted pool table with pockets ripped out, etc. Also, we didn’t see any travel books or literature to suggest venues or restaurants, and no recommendations from Ming. Additionally, the quiet was regularly interrupted by barking dogs, especially in the evenings. Some basic amenities (hair dryer, shampoo) were not provided until we asked. Overall, it was a nice stay.
