Loved your place and the city of SMA...El charco del Ingenio (The Botanical Garden is worth the short walk up Montitlan. Our suitcases are heavier and I'm afraid so am I--signs of a good vacation!

Your house is great! The colors are so warm, cozy and inviting. The views are spectacular! It is so centrally located you can walk to all the festivities that go on in this great town. San Miguel is so full of life and charm, it's hard to leave. Every day there is something going on. Oh yes...I'll be back without a doubt.

Thank you for sharing this incredible place with us! It's more or less my first time in Mexico, and it was truly a magical experience. For Jose it was more familiar, but he pays San Miguel a complement in saying he felt that he was at home here. We took day trips to Guanajuato and Dolores Hidalbo, but the best part was always coming back to Carol's place on "La Cuesta". I now own two pairs of San Miguel shoes. Your kitchen is the best in which to cook. We ate here a lot--can't say why, but it feels like a second home after one stay. We look forward to coming back soon.

Hola! I really enjoyed staying here because: 1. you have a great view, 2. the TV is awesome!, 3. it is a very short walk down town. I had a very good time and hope I can come back. I really enjoy the Parroquia at night.

San Miguel de Allende is truly a magical place--the culture, the serenity, the relaxed pace, the wonderful people here, all combine to make it so very special. What better time could there be than Semana Santa to eperience the life and devotion of the San Miguel people! Thanks so much for the opportunity of enjoying the charm of your home for two weeks.
