We loved staying at Alex's place! It's well designed... simple and smart. The outside terrace is comfortable and beautiful. It's surrounded by green plants and has several places to sit. We spent a lot of time relaxing there in the mornings and early evenings.

The neighborhood has just about anything you'd need within a 10-15 min walk. You can eat out simple or fancy, traditional or not, or buy food for cooking at a grocery on Calle Colima. There are a handful of modern "minimalist style" coffee shops and of course plenty of more traditional restaurants and cafes. Everywhere we went was great. The Metro Cuauhtémoc is very convenient.
