This is a great spot! The apartment faces the main road, and yes it can be loud, but if you're from a place like NYC, you're probably used to the type of sound associated with busy streets. For me the location and accessibility was more important. A few steps outside of the apartment and around the corner, you'll find yourself amidst tree-lined streets, cute coffee shops, and eateries. You can also cross the highway and you're basically at the Bosque de Chapultepec. Would recommend!
