Firstly the positives. This apartment is really well located, in Roma Norte (which alongside Condesa & Polanco is one of the best/popular areas in Mexico City).
The apartment is large, and the kitchen is well equipped with essential appliances (fridge, oven) and a couple of thoughtful touches too - a coffee maker & blender.
The building is an imposing /historical one, with Art Deco design in lobby and inside the apartment.
Now the not so positive :-/. The apartment was not clean upon check in, with the floors quite dusty and linen smelling like mould. I must emphasize, I do believe that apt had probably been cleaned - but it may have been in a rush, with sheets/pillow cases perhaps being in a cupboard for a long time.
The lounge, although large is not practical. Kind of acts as a dining room with a huge dining table, wheras it would be nice if it were a place to relax on a couch and put a movie on after a long day of work/sightseeing.
The host did send a cleaner the next day and was very apologetic. The cleaner did sort of just turn up though, without warning which again was slightly annoying as it was really awkward timing.
The building / apartment isn’t what I would call “modern”, but again if you like Art Deco, you’ll love the design :). For price/options in Roma Norte/Condesa, I’ve stayed in much more modern apartments which are within beautiful historic buildings, with a much more practical use of the space.
