We choose this place since we were familiar with the area. There is a lot of street food nearby, as well as the Metro. If you haven't been to CDMX before, staying here will give you the experience in how residents of CDMX live. Of course, there are richer neighborhoods but you will also need to pay a higher price for accommodations, transpiration, and food.
The home had everything we needed, and the host was very accommodating and checking with us regularly to see if we needed anything else such as replacement sheets, towels, etc. The kitchen was very helpful to re-heat some things we bought in the streets. Also, staying here for a month allowed us to pack light and just use the washer to clean our clothes. After 24hrs of hang drying, it would be ready- most times its wearable after 12hrs of hang drying.
Since the temperature in CDMX is pretty moderate year-round, there is no A/C or heating. For some nights we were a bit chilly, but during the day with the sun out you would sweat.
As with most neighborhoods, there are street vendors that go around selling things during the day and night. You just have to get used to it. Separate from that, this neighborhood has a reputation. But as long as you are not flashy and can blend in with the local population...you'll be fine. That said, you should always be careful- as you would in any large city. Uber is readily available and should be used if you don't want to get ripped off by the taxis.
