We loved our stay in Roma Norte. There were great restaurants and it is a very safe, walkable and charming neighbourhood. If you enjoy walking like us, you can walk to all the major museums within an hour. However, if you are an architecture buff, it will take you far longer because you would want to stop and gawk at all the beautiful old buildings along the way. Fa's place is amazing-we really felt like we were at home. The place is just as you see in the pictures and it was sparkling clean. She left little personal touches everywhere-filtered drinkable water, fruits, beer, maps and recommendations. Of course as the other reviewers mentioned, there are certain quirks of the apartment and neighbourhood, such as street vendors (vocally) selling their wares in the morning and the slightly low water pressure, but the positives far outweigh the bad. We are also avid travellers and accept that these issues pointed out are part and parcel of older cities. Now, on to Fa, she is warm and personable, and although we did not meet her, she touched base many times through the 4 days stay and checked in several times to make sure all is well and answers all questions promptly. Thank you so much Fa!
