Pros:
*** This apartment is located in a central and convenient area for tourists coming to CDMX.
*** The front staff in the lobby are very pleasant and helpful.
*** The views from the balcony speaks for itself.
*** Although nobody personally greeted us upon arrival, the host did allow us to check in earlier than was listed.
Cons:
**" The photos the host posted used wide-angle lenses to give the false distortion of a much bigger space, especially of the bedroom by the kitchen. It does not even qualify as a bedroom because it has absolutely no windows. There is no insulation from the cold weather outside because there is no true wall behind the washer/dryer just outside that bedroom. By the way, the night time temperatures dropped to below 50 degrees Fahrenheit in CDMX almost every night of our stay.
*** In fact, this is what the guest in my group that had to sleep in that room said, "The third room with a bed can only be described as a bedroom by a person with a lot of imagination. It is is an 8x8x8 drafty yet musty cell exposed to the elements, separate from the main house area. It doesn't even have room for your luggage!"
*** The apartment directly faces some school and church. We heard schoolyard noises, loudspeakers, and constant church-bells at odd hours into the morning and night. There is no sound insulation.
*** There was a thunderstorm on one of the nights of our stay. It caused a blackout in the entire neighborhood. There was no candle, no flashlights, no emergency instructions at all. Keep in mind that this unit is on a high floor of an elevator building. I messaged Fernando and he had no real solution. He only replied that this never happened before. CDMX has a history of violent earthquakes, this lack of emergency instructions and basic supplies is unacceptable.
*** Attention to certain details were lacking; for example, they kept a cracked teacup in the cupboard. It unfortunately leaked on one of my friends.
