We had a great month-long stay in Mexico City. Susana's place is well located and safe. On the whole, the reviews are accurate but don't capture some of the letdown
- Many dressers and drawers were full of Susana's personal effects, papers, etc. This made storage a little more difficult. The overall feeling is that this space is not designed for guests, it is simply accommodating them. I know some people prefer this feel!
- Furniture is heavily worn, mismatched, and some unusably uncomfortable (those corner chairs!). The main bed platform was hugely oversized for the bed making the room much more difficult to use.
- Though the apt is cleaned weekly, it is sorta dingy and not well maintained overall. Bare bulbs, dirty couch covers, blood stained bedspread, squashed bugs on ceiling, broken fixture in shower, broken trim, dingy towels (and only one set) the list goes on.
I'd certainly go to Mexico City again, but for the money and experience, I wouldn't stay here
