I stayed here for a month, so I was able to get a good feel for the apartment. The key is its location. It's on one of the nicer streets in the Colonia Juarez, with lots of interesting architecture in the area. The Zona Rosa is steps away and Reforma, Mexico City's beautiful main boulevard, was a 6 minute walk for me. The center of Colonia Roma, one of my favorite parts of the town, is a 15 minute walk, and the Condesa neighborhood is just beyond that. You are super close to a variety of transportation options: metrobus and a metro stations are both 5 a minute walk. There's a taxi sitio 1 minute away.

Rodrigo offered two very nice conveniences: a bicycle and a cell phone. I visit Mexico City often, so already have my own, but I encourage people to take advantage of this. Mexico City has become bike friendly, and I have gotten to know parts of the city I never would have thanks to a bicycle.

As other reviewers have noted, the Panadería in the building is outstanding. It is part of an excellent local restaurant in the Colonia Roma called Rosetta. It's a great environment, good coffee and amazing sweet breads. They just started serving breakfasts as well. Their internet is excellent too, just ask for the code.

The building itself is very safe. Three different guys are usually at the door. They were also very nice and helpful, and it was good to get to know them during my month there.

The unit is very interesting an attractive. It's a modern design within an older, renovated building. There's a lot of renovations going on in the area. The area seems to be getting even nicer. There's a nice balcony, and all the things you see in the pictures. The bed was fine for sleeping.

I notice a few people have commented about mosquitoes. I've traveled many times to Mexico, DF, and the summer months do have this issue. However, this is not unique to Rodrigo's apartment, but rather to the fact that it rains in the summer. I bring repellent with Deet for sleeping at night, and it does the trick.

I would absolutely stay here again. One thing I did not need, but could see using in the future is using the downstairs futon sofa as a guest bed, if another friend from home wanted to join me on vacation for a few days.

Thank you Rodrigo.
