Mariela's apartment was exactly as advertised. Space was spacious, modern and very clean, with everything a traveler might need to feel at home. Kitchen was well stocked. Coffee, water and basic spices were there for our visit. Building was on a quiet street (meaning no bars or restaurants next door) in Roma Norte - what we found to be the trendiest, most lively of all the neighborhoods. Many great eating places within a three block radius, and market close by to prepare your own meals.
Mariela met us, and was very responsive to any and all questions. Location was central, we could get to almost anywhere in the city with a $5-$10 US ($100-$200MX) Uber ride. We took public transportation when traffic was heavy-- easy to navigate. We loved taking off walking from the apartment to read destinations up to an hour away. Always felt "safe". Always things to see.
It really felt like "coming home". We really recommend this location and apartment.
