You’ll be staying at a place that feels like home. Didn’t get to meet the hosts, but they were responsive and cordial. Well-equipped kitchen, ample natural light. Love the terrace, nice place to enjoy a takeaway meal. Bed was comfortable, nice to have a fan (didn’t need aircon). Shower was great too (gets really hot).
Notes for future guests:
Wifi: Súperfast — top download speed 201 Mbps / Upload speed 61.7 Mbps
Accessibility: This place is a walk-up with no elevator access (other buildings including hostels in this area, do not have elevators), so anyone needing elevator access should search carefully.
Location: quick, easy access to sites in the historic center. Regina Pedestrian Street (just a block away) is also good for y’all needing a late night drink/bite. You can pick up water/snacks at Oxxo convenience store at the corner. Good taquerías, panaderías, and cafés down the street—what more do you need for a short stay?
Transport: a quick 15-min Uber ride to the airport (~$100 pesos) // close to metro (if you need)
Security: super secure, didn’t worry at all about any potential break-ins—I even arrived past midnight. There are 3 doors to unlock before you get into the apartment (the 1 first, big wooden door to the building gave me trouble — I thought I was locked out, but it’s just a bit tricky to unlock, you’ll have to pull the key out just by a hairline/millimeter and then the lock will turn).
