Everything you see is as advertised. Great location, decent looking place, very safe, the doormen are extremely friendly and helpful.
We stayed here for two weeks, working remotely. In general it will be okay to work at. They have a desk setup with power outlets that will allow you to setup your work station. Two things you should be aware of if you are planning on a remote work setup like us -- and one of them is not the owners fault.
-Power went out three times during our visit. Once for 4 hours, the other two times for less than 20 minutes.
-WiFi is advertised as 120-160 MBPS, but in reality the WiFI speeds average 20-30 MBPS. The highest it ever went was 60 MBPS, and that was only for one night with only one device connected. If you want to work here and need a legitimate WiFi connection, the speeds are not stable and will dip below 10 MBPS -- the remedy is to disconnect the router and plug in. (I am a tech nerd, so I ran speed tests multiple times a day) If you are not planning to work here an extended amount of time, or don't need a strong connection, this is NOT an issue.
Only other FYI I would give to anyone is that the the floors in the living room to the upstairs neighbor are extremely thin. There is no insulation and you will hear everything. You can hear the people talking upstairs, the dog scratching or walking on the floor, sweeping, literally anything.
There were three nights of the 14 we stayed there that the upstairs neighbors threw parties from 11PM-3AM. The music was extremely loud and so were the people. It didn't make for a good nights sleep, but we understand people throwing parties where they live, it is what it is. Additionally, any time the owners upstairs left for an extended amount of time, the dogs would howl until they came home. Two nights the dogs howled for hours and hours.
This Airbnb is truly great for a CDMX vacation, and if you aren't sticking around too much, you probably won't have issues. The only reason I give this place 4/5 stars is because of the noise from upstairs. The three nights of parties and two nights of dog howling was not enjoyable. But hey, you may not have this issue at all.
Would recommend to anyone, just be aware of what I listed above.
Flavia was responsive to any questions, you won't have any issues getting in touch with the host. And definitely tip the doormen! They were my favorite part of staying here and are genuinely great people.
