We absolutely enjoyed our 6-night stay in Mexico City in Stacey's beautifully decorated, comfortable, and spacious apartment loft. The loft is centrally located in Roma Norte, just steps away from the trendy coffee shops (such as Buna 42 and Almanegra), 10 minutes to Panetteria Rosetta, and an under-10 minute walk of delicious places in Condensa and Hipodromo.
We found the apartment perfect for 5 people - each of us getting a bed and could have room to spread out. The king bedroom has a door on the main level and the second-floor bedroom is it's on the floor (note no door as the stairs lead down). Both bedrooms have their own showers and toilet. Toward the back of the main floor are two twin beds, and then a full sized bed in the loft above that share a half bath. Super comfortable sheets and comfortable beds. And there is TONS of space to put your luggage and clothes in the two bedrooms.
Note the apartment's living room can run very warm in the day if there isn't overcast because of the gorgeous windows. Opening the windows brings the cool air in -- at least in mid-November when we stayed. A fan is also provided. We didn't find it a problem. The bedrooms have blackout shades which we lowered in the daytime to keep the bedrooms cool. Those same windows provide a nearly 180 view of Mexico City, and on clear days, you can see mountains in the distance.
Stacey particularly went out of her way to arrange transportation and a tour of the Teohautican pyramids with Hector. We had some complications on our end of dates, and then it was further made complicated by a shutting down of the pyramids due to government visitors. She was gracious and helpful, even with changing dates 3 times!
Other things: The doormen are wonderful and let us in and out; they also watched our luggage after check out. Other things include that Stacey thoughtfully provided huge jugs of water in the water dispenser so we never had to go get water inside the house.
We look forward to having another great stay at Stacey's place! It
Tips - Get some tamales (the roja ones were particularly good!) from the gentleman just a step or two from the building. Delicious tacos two blocks down at Taco Orinoco and Taco El Morocho. El Palacio shopping mall is just two blocks up. And must check out Parque Mexico and Parque Rio De Janiero. At Parque Mexico you'll find El Moro Churreria for delicious hot chocolate and churros.
