First time to Mexico City and I must say I was lucky to have Flor as my host. She made the transition into our accommodations very comfortable and her husband provided an entire Foodie guide (in Digital Format as well!) for us. The pair are affable and helped guide my stay, as well as, straighten up my itinerary (local tips, what to avoid, what to try, etc). And the location is calm, but close/central enough to most of the neighborhoods you want to visit; making it an uber friendly launch pad for your exploration of Mexico City. I must reiterate that Flor and her husband are wonderful people who really inconvenienced themselves to help me out. Enjoy your time in the D.F.
