My stay at Alonso’s place was nothing but fantastic. I’ve tried to think of downsides to the apartment but wasn’t able to come up with any.
Starting with the location, it is perfect! I’ve been to Mexico City before and for me the best place to stay is Juarez. You’ll be close to Paseo de la Reforma (easy access to Chapultepec/Polanco or Downtown) and also close to Roma Norte and Condessa by foot. There’s lot of amazing restaurants and cafes nearby (I recommend Cafe Nin and Loose Blues).
The apartment itself is extremely charming and cozy. It is not one of those “professional AirBnB’s” with generic decor and furniture - it has its own style and personality. Even being fully equipes, the kitchen is quite small, but I wasn’t able to cook anything so I’m not the best judge. Bedroom and bathroom were excellent, with a highlight to the bedsheets which were wonderful. The living room is a little bit dark since the apartment is on a lower floor and doesn’t get much sunlight, but Alonso managed that perfectly with lamps and lighting design. The laundry area (on the patio outside) was a nice plus.
And lastly, Alonso was an amazing host. He opened the apartment for me and showed me everything and was very communicative and attentive throughout my 1 week stay; he was flexible with check-in/check-out times which was very helpful.
TLDR: Don’t think twice, book Alonso’s place without hesitation as I’m sure you’ll have an amazing stay.
