My partner and I could not have been more pleased with our stay at Margarita's beautiful apartment overlooking the Plaza Rio de Janeiro, a real oasis of calm in this fascinating, exciting, fun, and occasionally frustrating city. Some of the very best restaurants, cafes, and bars in CDMX are within a 5-10 minute walk. Staying in the northern side of Roma Norte is really convenient--you are close to Zona Rosa, La Reforma, the Insurgentes metrobus and metro station, but are still in the heart of the hip Roma Norte scene. The apartment itself was really beautiful, with enough personal touches, including antiques, to remind you this is a home, not a hotel. The layout was great, with lots of light and air, and separation of the bedroom and studio from the rest of the apartment assuring privacy. Communications with Margarita and Rafael could not have been easier or more pleasant. We definitely hope to stay in Margarita's place again on our next visit to Mexico City, which should be on the top of anyone's bucket list.
