Description from owner
Description
This beautiful home away from home is a wonderful combination of history and modern conveniences. The 22 inch thick walls keep the quiet interior comfortable and the terraces have some of the best views in town. The outdoor covered living room, with cozy traditional furniture, is a guest favorite. Here you are surrounded with beautiful plants and the sights and sounds of San Miguel. There are two lovely, private terraces just outside this area, with views of cathedrals, jardins and all of San Miguel.
The entrance to the apartment is a wall of windows which keeps the 34 ft. x 24 ft. living room, dining area, and kitchen light and bright. There is a comfy queen sized convertible sofa in this area for two guests. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, dishes, pots and pans, and filtered drinking water for cooking and serving your latest Mexican cuisine. Or, you can just relax while enjoying a CD, television, or surfing the internet. We also provide you with free Vonage phone service for those calls to the U.S. or Canada (from Alice's house if you need to make a call.)
Down the Penthouse hall you'll find the 24 ft. x 16 ft. master bedroom where a luxurious king size bed offers you a scenic view of cathedrals, flowers, greenery and blue skies through the bedroom window. The linens are 100 percent cotton and the pillows and comforter are fluffy, down-filled. Just off the bedroom is an 8 ft. x 16 ft. full bath decorated with blue and white tiles uniquely installed by a well know San Miguel designer.
There is also a studio apartment on property that is not listed but just ask; we'll be happy to fill you in.
M-F maid service is included.

Response from the owner Hola Colleen, we are so happy that your sanctuary was pleasing and.perfect for what you needed! The location is the best, one of the only residences this close in to the heart of the center. It is thrilling to see 8 surrounding cathedrals from the terrace and to hear the bells and enjoy that special quality of light that we only find in San MIguel de Allende. Please come back and see us again soon. All Best! All of us at Alice's Palace

Response from the owner Hello, Christine here, Alice's assistant. Every review for the Penthouse and the studio for Alice's Palace lists our helpfulness, availability, communication before and during the trip, as top notch, except for this review. We pride ourselves on our better than concierge service including suggestions for airport shuttles, goings on about town, and we try our very best to ensure that our guests' needs are met and that everyone has a fabulous, seamless vacation. One can't please all of the people all of the time, apparently, but we sure do try! Alice and I both go the extra mile for our guests. I provide a "lay of the land" in communication before the actual trip and provide links, names, adventures to pyramids, La Gruta, and so much more. I'm always available and sometimes have guests call me for information and write volumes of questions, as this guest did. And we answered and were most accommodating.Alice invites guests into her home for wine and appetizers and is the most gracious host imaginable, being a Hockaday graduate and beautiful human being. The lighting on the stairs was iffy and we had an electrician repair it and took the extra steps to provide alternative lighting in the interim period. Problem solved. The DVD player didn't work so we bought a new one. So sorry about the DVD player. Readers, please read our other reviews here and on all sites. Thank you, All of us at Alice's Palace
