Situated just a 10-minute walk from Alameda Central park, 20 minutes from the Zocalo, and with public transit options even closer than that, this apartment is a convenient springboard to explore Centro, as well as a great opportunity to experience Tabacalera, a neighborhood of gritty charm. Eat at delicious, down-home restaurants and cafes among locals (try the lamb tacos at the nearby street fair on Saturdays), people-watch at Plaza de la Republica, grab a drink at tourist-free beer halls. The rooms are clean, provide just enough comfort for street-weary travelers, there's good wifi, and the host, Pilar, couldn't be sweeter or more helpful. One of my favorite airbnb situations, made me feel like a neighborhood denizen.
