Pros:
1. Location - Best neighborhood in Mexico City
2. Communication - Host was very easy to contact both before and during our stay
3. Host's Recommendation - Host was able to recommend a few local gems in the Area.
4. Price - we thought (at the time of booking) that the price was very reasonable.
Cons:
1. No Screens on the Windows - It was very hot both during the day and at night during out stay in Mexico City. We had to open the windows in order to be able to fall asleep at night. By doing so, bugs would fly in the windows and we got eaten alive by both mosquitos and bugs during our stay. We should have known better when we saw that the host left a bottle of bug spray! Regardless, we got eaten alive and came back home with lots of itchy bites.
2. The internet did not work during our stay. We spoke to the host about this and she was not able to fix it either. This was very annoying for us because we were traveling internationally and needed the Wifi to work in order to find our way around the city without running up our cell phone roaming bill.
3. Very small - Even tho my fiancee and I share a small studio apartment in NYC, this was even smaller than that.
4. Shared Washer and Dryer not in the unit. We were counting on using the washer and dryer during our stay but were not able to. It was shared with other units and was always being used during our stay. This really sucked because Mexico City was the last stop on our trip and we were counting on cleaning our clothes . We ended up just having to wear our dirty clothes for the time we stayed at Rocio's place.
