Fodor's Expert Review Red Tree House

Culiacan 6, Mexico City, Mexico City, 06100, Mexico Fodor's Choice

A homey vibe and central location in La Condesa make this charming little B&B a favorite among leisure travelers, most of whom come from the United States. Guests share recommendations and discoveries in the cozy living room area, which is decked out with plush seating, a baby grand piano, and a painting of Frida Kahlo mounted above the working fireplace. The nicely appointed rooms, each with its own tiled bathroom and flat-screen TV, are distributed between the main house, a 1930s-era home that's said to have been continually occupied by artists and writers; a separate three-story building in the back; and a small annex across the street.
