I spent two wonderful months at Stefanie's apartment, and absolutely loved it. It offers lots of space, a fantastic location, and all the basic amenities you would need for a short or long-term stay. Stephanie was a great host, responding quickly to any questions that I had and periodically offering suggestions for nearby restaurants and shops that she thought I'd enjoy (and I did enjoy!) It was comforting to know she lived just a couple blocks away if anything went wrong. She clearly paid close attention to detail in cleaning and sterilizing the place before my arrival - important during these COVID times!
The location is fantastic. Escandon is a safe, middle-class neighborhood with dozens of restaurants and shops within just a few blocks. The nearby park is lovely, and the Mercado Escandon boasts lots of vendors selling just about anything you could need. Walk a few blocks to the north and you're right in the heart of La Condesa with its excellent parks and restaurants, or head south and you'll find the World Trade Center and the Metropoli Patriotismo mall.
The apartment is situated in a locked courtyard. All the neighbors are friendly elderly folks or families. Sometimes their dogs would bark or you could hear them playing music, but only during the day. At night things were generally pretty quiet. The little patio is more of a functional space than a lounging area, but it was nice to be able to sit outside in privacy while listening to the sounds of the city.
The wifi connection was very reliable and fast enough to stream Netflix or Youtube, although it struggled a little with more intensive tasks like using a VPN or making big downloads.
The kitchen is small, but well equipped with all the necessary cookware, dishes and utensils for basic cooking. There is a full stove/oven, a blender, coffee maker, and - especially important - a faucet-mounted water filter so you don't have to lug large jugs of water form the store.
The bedroom has lots of storage for clothes, and the bed itself is comfortable. The shower water pressure was good enough, and the hot water always worked - although finding the right temperature balance was finicky.
Overall I greatly enjoyed my stay and think you will too.
