Alejandra’s place is a very beautiful, clean and nice little apartment. The location is great, close to shops and restaurants and literally across the street from the delicious churros from El Moro. At arrival we were hosted by the staff at the café downstairs that were very helpful showing us around. They offer some free options for breakfast on caffé toscano that include all coffee, fruit and pastries. Overall Alejandra responded quickly whenever we needed anything or had any doubts however a few things to consider when staying at this place:
1. The access to the property is directly at caffé toscano, which is open until 11 p.m. After that, you’ll need to ring the doorbell to get access to the building. Unfortunately it happened twice that we got there after 11 and no one would open the door (and it took a while to contact Alejandra). Just something that could be improved since you don’t want to be waiting outside in the street when it’s late in Mexico City.
2. Parking is only available in the street by meter so if you’re driving be aware to always make sure your ticket is still valid.
3. On our last day we had absolutely no water because maintenance forgot to turn on the water pump during the night. That impacted our plans because we wanted to shower in the morning and Alejandra would not answer.
Overall, we had a nice time at this airbnb. I would give 5 stars if we didn’t went through the issues with the water and getting access to the building. Just a couple of things to be improved. But overall, we were happy to stay at this place.
