Here's a delightful guide to the most charming places to stay in Mexico: the small Mexican posada or inn. Typically, these small inns are somewhat removed from the busy downtown and tourist districts, often in quiet residential neighborhoods, on the outskirts of small towns and villages, and sometimes in rural settings.
