Pros: Location on Av Mazatalan was fantastic. Big windows in the living room overlooking the tree lined street was lovely. Walkable to heaps of amazing restaurants and shops.
French press
Beautiful art deco building
Plenty of water
Comfy beds
Good water pressure
Cons:
When I booked, I made sure the listing said “portable crib” and asked if there was a high chair too. We arrived to find a disassembled wooden crib in the middle of the living room. No screwdriver, no instructions. It became clear quickly that pieces were missing. (My partner happens to be a furniture builder). We contacted the host who insisted we were wrong and the crib was fine. She assumed we would contact her for help upon finding the crib unassembled. After she sent over 3 different people to assemble the crib, they all agreed it was not safe for our daughter. At this point, kid missed a nap and it was after her bedtime. Host lives in San Miguel de Allende and her sisters who were helping her out had to leave. They returned the next day with a new pack n play. Host did not apologize and was rude throughout the process. I do not recommend staying at this apartment with children. Additionally, it was poorly renovated with many hazards for children.
Neighbors smoke and it enters the apartment through unsealed windows.
The apartment is decorated with beautiful plants, but some of them had mosquito larvae growing in them, so we had to dispose of the water.
