We could not have been more pleased with our stay here at Mariana’s beautiful home. The pictures did not give this place justice. Although the pictures for the listing were already impressive. It is way more impressive in person!! Her home is very bright and green. It really encapsulates the vibe for CDMX. Beautiful laid back Condesa. The terrace for this Airbnb is unmatched. 5/5 recommend!
Location 5/5
You are surrounded by delicious restaurants left and right. There is no shortage of coffee shops either. You are centrally located to everything! If you want a fast paced night scene head over to Roma Norte or Zona Rosa. Which is about a 15 min walk or a 8 minute Uber. Chapultepec is so close to her home so you can take a ride over there and enjoy that green marble.
Food 5/5
Make sure to check out Lardo(around the corner- amazing coffee) Café Milou (across the street- best Benedict and scrambled eggs) and Filigrana (about half a block up- try their pastries) for breakfast. Take an Uber to Madre Café and a must is any of their drinks( macadamia milk latte coffee, blue matcha or their chai lattes). Next door is Marcella, an amazing Italian restaurant. Skip on that Italian place across the street from the Airbnb. The food was lacking in every aspect. Make sure to explore this area by Madre Café and enjoy a drink at Cafe De Nadie in the evening. It’s a laid back cocktail bar that spins vinyl.
Host 5/5
Mariana is incredibly attentive and has great communication. She is very accommodating and kind. I had a few issues with the windows because I’m a little incompetent but she was very patient and explained in detail how to close them lol. The tv would not turn on and she came by while we were out and fixed it for us.
If I had to nitpick at anything it would be the stairs to get up to the apartment. We were not anticipating that many stairs. Carrying over 50lbs of luggage made it quite a work out. Especially when you aren’t acclimated to that high altitude CDMX has. We were dying lol 😂 but totally worth it once we made it in.
If you’ve made it this far, just book it!!! You seriously won’t regret it!!
