Location, Location, Location. If you are searching for a centrally located, beautifully designed space in CDMX, this is the spot! Located on the border of the Roma Norte and La Condesa neighborhoods and adjacent to Parque Mexico, you find yourself in the heart of bohemian chic Mexico City.
As foodies, both my girlfriend and I love exploring the diversity of culture every town and city has to offer. Victor and Paulo were extremely friendly and attentive hosts, offering up a great selection of local restaurants worth visiting to ignite the taste buds.
Being a fitness trainer and enthusiast, this area of the city is well adapted to an active lifestyle; walking, biking, and taking a jog in the park (which also has an outdoor gym). There are a couple of gyms close by which offer day passes as well for $150-$200 MXN( $8-$10 USD). I would suggest Fun & Fit Fitness which is about a seven-minute walk.
Check-in was handled well and the building felt extremely safe and quiet throughout the entirety of our stay, with a dual smart lock system and 24-hour security in the lobby of the building.
The unit itself is modern and is accurately reflected in the images provided. The water pressure in the shower was great. The kitchen appliances are new and work well. Both smart T.V.s have the bulk of streaming services available and are easy to navigate. There is a shared washer and dryer in the hallway between units, small loads work best as the dryer takes a very long time. Additionally, the outdoor patio offers a great place to have breakfast or a drink before heading out on the town.
Although there were issues with cleanliness, (sheets did not look or smell fresh, old sponge in the kitchen) the concerns were handled very well and we were given another unit to stay in for the first evening while the cleaning team came in to sort out the issues.
Some suggestions to ease the guest having to reach out for additional materials. Include a few extra rolls of toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels, and a few dish towels to use for cleaning the kitchen and drying the dishes. The unit we stayed in has a very firm bed, a mattress topper would likely help restful sleep if guests prefer more cushion.
Overall, if we come back to this area of CDMX, we will stay in this beautiful space again.
Travel On!
