  Description

  The Bed & Breakfast is a haven of tranquility and peace, dedicated to providing personalized attention and recommendations that ensure our guests have unforgettable experiences, maximizing their investment of time and money. Our natural luxury extends to comfortable rooms with cozy beds, heating, and private bathrooms. The ambiance features a central courtyard adorned with flowers and aromatic plants for brewing natural teas and infusions. We offer a traditional Mexican breakfast that feels like home. As the owner, Ivan, I take joy in meeting guests, engaging in cultural exchanges, and addressing any inquiries they may have. Together, we can immerse ourselves in our respective traditions and enrich each other's experiences. Guests are not just visitors but fellow travelers, and I am here to support them during this stage of their journey. Being knowledgeable about Mexican chocolate and cocoa, I often provide hot cocoa and samples of high-quality artisanal chocolate bars made from regional genetics. I take pleasure in sharing Chiapas' gastronomy, discussing the economy of essential foods such as cocoa, corn, and coffee, which thrive in this remarkable region.
  
  In the house we are a team of 4 people, the cook woman, the made, the designer and me, the owner. And we have breakfast every morning with the guests, some times we share amazing conversations to enrich each other with culture and interesting experiences.

  What can a Workawayer expect? They can look forward to a complete immersion in the local culture, engaging in daily conversations with our hotel team. They will gain valuable insights into the workings of tourism in this region, catering to guests from around the world. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to practice Spanish on a daily basis while residing in a beautifully remodeled 19th-century colonial house. Our Workawayer will enjoy a private loft room on the second floor, sharing common spaces (such as the lobby and bathroom) solely with our team. They will also have a dedicated office space for work. Although we are a small team operating a cozy bed & breakfast, we take great pride in maintaining clean and well-decorated spaces, ensuring our guests' comfort through a sense of familiarity and warmth.
