It is over 10 kilometers from the center of Mexico City, but it is a nice area, like a small village. Really nice people in that area. I gave it 4 stars only because I am disabled and there are 3 flights of stairs. I was there for 2 months. It can get very cold at night, but there is a fireplace, and Caro will get you a big bag of wood for a small price. Really big place, lots of light. There is a laundry place around the corner and they wash it for you. Not expensive. Satisfied!! Many small food shops in the area, pizza, tacos...
