Jeremy’s condo was gorgeous, well-decorated, clean, and Jeremy himself is a great communicator. Overall, I enjoyed staying in his space for the month that I was there, and I would recommend it. Here is an honest list of pros and cons:
Pros:
-Again, Jeremy is a great communicator in that he is quick to respond and fix any issues and is very pleasant. He was super helpful and checked in from time to time to make sure everything was going smoothly. Thank you, Jeremy!
-Jeremy put a lot of thought into the design of the space, and I really enjoyed his curated collection of art, bathroom soaps, coffee, chocolate and perfume. I don’t drink alcohol, but I could appreciate his collection of beverages as well.
-The security men at this building were always really kind, helpful and quick to open the main door to the building. One morning, when I was waiting for a pre-sunset Uber to go hiking, the building security officer made sure I got into the Uber without just closing the building’s main door and having me stand alone on the sidewalk, and I really appreciated this.
-The building itself is a gorgeous, historic building with a delicious cafe on the ground flood.
-I appreciated the location of this space as it’s in El Centro Historico and close to tons of fabulous museums.
-It is conveniently located within walking distance to so many great restaurants in La Juarez. It is also very close to the metro stations of Balderas and Juarez.
Cons:
-Noise: the neighbor above this condo likes to host parties at least twice a week. I knocked on his door twice during my stay to kindly ask him to turn his music down, and while he was friendly to my face, he did not decrease his music volume and his friends stayed over late a couple or a few times per week partying. At least 3 nights a week, I wore ear plugs and played my white noise app to try to drown out the sounds, but even those measures didn’t completely drown out the noise. CDMX is clearly a big city, so I can understand that it’s hard to find a quiet place.
-Light: while this is a gorgeous space, the lighting isn’t ideal. This space doesn’t get a lot of natural sunlight, and when I got ready in the mornings, I used my phone’s flashlight in the bathroom in order to do my makeup. I can appreciate that the ambiance is nice if one likes darker spaces, but practically it wasn’t very helpful when trying to get ready.
