I did not have the opportunity to meet the host so I cannot speak on that.
I did check in with the a building employee, and I was thoroughly guided in the process.
The balcony is stunning, the view priceless, and the location makes it feasible to experience CDMX with ease.
In terms of cleanliness, there was quite a few things amiss but it wasn’t something that I couldn’t manage.
The bedroom has a bit of a bug issue so I had a series of bug bites which alarmed me at first. I then realized it wasn’t bed bugs but mosquitos, tiny insects and I don’t think it was due to cleanliness but maybe the closet and locked moisture.
I spent majority of my stay itching which was frustrating but I tried to make the best of it and eventually decided to sleep in the outside area.
I think overall it’s totally manageable, in terms of value though — because my previous Airbnb’s in Mexico City were above and beyond within the same price point it made it difficult to really see it as a value versus a last minute option.
