Casa Limonchelo

We stayed at this wonderful BnB four nights at the end of February, 2020. Raul and his wife Susanne are such kind, friendly people. Raul cooks breakfast, cleans rooms, looks after guests like family. This is a historic home with a beautiful courtyard. The first night we arrived after 9 pm, and my husband had not been feeling well even before our 10-hour bus trip to Morelia. Raul phoned a good restaurant 3 blocks away that had closed at 9 pm. and asked them to open and to make my husband some chicken broth soup, then walked with us to the restaurant. A couple of days later my husband became much sicker. Raul went to 4 pharmacies and even talked to a doctor at the hospital to get the best medicine for him. We could never thank Raul enough for his kindness. This BnB is very clean and quiet. Breakfast is included: toast and pastries, yogurt, granola, a big plate of assorted fresh fruits, freshly squeezed juice (orange, guava, or papaya), tea or coffee. Raul will cook eggs (including omelettes) at a very reasonable extra charge. He also makes delicious crepes in the afternoons, again reasonably priced. Casa Limoncelo is only about 10 minutes walk to the main cathedral and square of Morelia, and just a few minutes in the other direction to the aqueduct and Guadalope cathedral. Taxis are readily available on the street in front of Limoncelo, or Raul can call one for you. He also will help arrange tours. Grocery store and pharmacy are very close. …

We stayed for a week at this beautiful historic B & B. Raul our host served us each morning at 8 am a delicious breakfast consisting of a big plate of fresh fruit, juices, fresh pastrises, cereal, yoghurt and very good coffee.A cooked breakfast was offered to us at no extra charge. I had the Mexican Breakfast a few times as well as Cheese Omelette, I liked both very much. Raul is a very friendly and outgoing and we loved to talk to him. Always helpful and happy. He did all the cleaning as well and kept our room very clean with change of towels every day. Bed and pillows very comfortable. We enjoyed the courtyard in the evening to enjoy a glass of wine. The wifi worked very well here and were able to do some work on the computer. In the evening we had a few mosquitoes but with the help of a Raid disc for the pug-in, the problem was solved. Mercado San Juan, a very interesting market was nearby. A few blocks away was a lovely park to sit in the shade on benches watching entertainment on occasions. The Cathedral Park is an enjoyable 15 minute walk and a fun place to spend some time in the shade. We had a double room with private bath at the end of the Courtyard. Very quiet! The location was perfect with it's historic architecture, beautiful cathedral and many interesting restaurants to sample the local dishes. The little restaurant at the B & B where we ate our breakfast was a perfect place to watch people on the street. Thank you Raul for making our stay a very enjoyable one and definitely would stay at Limonchelo again when we decide to return to Morelia. Kind regards, Ivar & Gunda Morelia was the highlight of our five week trip through Mexico. …

I spent a week at Raul & Susanna’s bed and breakfast. It truly is in the center of Historical Morelia. Unless we were on a tour, we walked everywhere. Breakfast each morning was delicious. Fresh fruits, juices, pastries, and coffee from Chiapas. If that wasn’t enough, Raul would make breakfast of your choosing. Our rooms were clean and comfortable. The outdoor patios were so relaxing to come "home" to each day and enjoy our tapas and wine that we brought with us. The place is very quiet and peaceful. Their two sons are very nice and if you try, they will even practice their English with you and let you practice your Spanish with them. For our group, I worked solely with Raul and he was very responsive to all my questions in planning this trip. He helped me with planning our tours and also airport pickup and delivery from Mexico City airport. I highly recommend staying at Casa LIMONCHELO. …

What a find!! I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Morelia. The owner is fabulous. He had wonderful recommendations for everything. The breakfast was perfect for big breakfast eaters and those of us who aren’t. He served fresh juices, a fresh fruit plate, basket of pastries, yogurt, homemade granola, and offered egg dishes which we declined because the other things were plenty. The various courtyards were perfect for resting and reading after a day of exploring.
