Irma's place is in a fantastic neighborhood, right in the center of things. Easy to call an uber to basically everywhere in the area. Flat is exactly as advertised, comfy beds, etc. We didn't use the kitchen, but definitely appreciated the water filter on the sink for filling up our water bottles!! Plenty of hot water for the showers and space galore! The host responds well to messages. We requested to be able to leave our bags by the door so that we could explore a bit more prior to our flight on our last day, and they agreed :)
Other reviews depicted the location as on a quiet street in a great neighborhood - only a few streets from restaurants/bars/etc. However, while the entrance is on a "quiet street", the bedroom windows face out onto a street with a few bars. Senor Taco is open until 5am and seems to have a ......rowdy clientele (tbh sounded more like foreigners due to the choice usage of screaming C*** until 4am.) Truly we are not sure if we just had bad luck, but we were not able to get much sleep most of our stay. We triple checked that the bedroom windows were shut properly, but the noise still sounded as if they were. The flat is beautiful and in a great location. Perhaps bring ear plugs or ensure you are about to enter a food coma prior to settling in for sleep? (The food coma trick worked particularly well for me for our last night as we had done a delicious food tour, but unfortunately my friend still struggled with the noise.) All in all, we adored our time in Ciudad de Mexico, however, we just wish we had gotten a bit more sleep to be able to keep up with all of the daily activities we enjoyed!!! (Daytime siestas were much quieter!)
Thanks Irma!
