We had high hopes for this apartment given the appealing photos. When we walked in we were shocked. It was perhaps half the size we had assumed, quite small and dark. All the windows open onto the bottom of a tall airshaft. On the opposite side of the shaft you are looking at a tall grey abandoned building, apparently earthquake damaged, and sealed off from the airshaft by black netting. Very gloomy. The apartment was also cold; it is completely sunless and cold night air just sits in that airshaft. The host appeared not to have provided any of the small space heaters frequently used in Mexico City. What appeared in the photos to be a useable balcony or patio was actually a narrow strip maybe 30 inches wide. There is also the weird fact that the bathroom actually seems to have an open air connection directly into the kitchen; the wall between them doesn’t go all the way to the edge, so if you were in the shower you can reach into the kitchen and grab your beer. So we sat down at the little table with our jackets on, flipped open the laptop and cancelled. It was the most expensive airbnb we had ever booked, and the most disappointing. Gotta say though, the roof terrace on the building was great. The public areas of the building are completely redone and very nice. And the location is really good, but there are better places within a block or two.
