Pros: This location doesn’t get any better. You have a gorgeous view of the Plaza Rio de Janeiro, which is a block away from some of the best food in town. The apartment also has an amazing roof deck, good showers, and a very comfortable bed.
This could be a great place for an extended stay if you don’t intend on doing much cooking (not that you need to with so much good food nearby), and also good for a couple nights.
Potential downsides: It’s a three-story walk-up, which isn’t a big deal for me since that’s my situation at home, but just a heads up. During the rainy season, daytime open windows are amazing for the breeze, but once the mosquitos come at night you need to close them and run the box fan in the closet. Most homes in CDMX don’t have AC because it’s usually never been necessary due to high elevation and generally great weather. Lastly, this isn’t someone’s home, but a rental run like a small hotel, so it’s furnished on the cheap like most rentals.
