We were a family of 5 and we spend 2 weeks in Juan’s penthouse apartment. It was perfect for us, spacious, bright, clean, and in the best neighborhood in Mexico City. The building was safe and secure, but the neighborhood was incredibly safe too. There were so many great restaurants, coffee shops and bars in neighborhood. Juan was great in getting us situated an settled in when we first arrived, and was super communicative when I had a question or request.
As another reviewer noted, this is the top floor of a 4 story walk up, so you have to be okay with the stairs. The only time we had any difficult with this was when we were checking in and lugging up a big duffle bag for 5 people, but Juan was super helpful in the getting the luggage up as well.
The terrace was so amazing, it definitely made the stairs worth the effort. It’s huge, and with the blinds and slinging glass doors wide open it made the apartment feel huge. Plus its a great place to sit out and eat and enjoy the perfect Mexico City weather in the spring, lay on the hammock and listen the street music.
The street is remarkably quiet too, you can hear the birds chirping in the morning, hard to believe this was in the middle of one of the worlds largest cities.
We had the best time on this trip, and Juan’s place was a big part of that.
