This is hands down the best place to stay in Mexico City. I am partial to Polanco vs Roma or Condessa as we (family of 4) lived in the neighborhood from 2017-2019. I got to know Mexico City inside out and Mariana’s place is in the THE BEST location, not just in Polanco but in Mexico City. It’s literally across the street from one of the best restaurants in Latin America, steps from Lincoln Park, and steps from anything you could possibly need. You could walk to Chapultepec Park and the National Museum of Anthropology and so many excellent restaurants and cafes. You are also a comfortable distance from Polanquito, the center of Polaco (you don’t want to be in Polanquito because it’s quite loud) but you want to be close enough for the grocery shopping, cafes, and restaurants.
I messaged various hosts about internet speeds as my husband was working from home and needed the most reliable internet and Mariana’s was the best. He worked all day for five days and mostly on video calls and never had any issues.
Mariana is a stellar communicator. She immediately sent me her phone number and checked in with us when we arrived. I didn’t message her too much but every time I did she responded immediately and even provided some recommendations of new cafes to try.
Also, Mariana understands that a small investment in basic needs goes such a long way with guests! There were things like paper towels, dish detergent, clothes detergent, enough toilet paper for our stay, salt, and so many other basics that so many other Airbnb’s fail to provide. Thank you Mariana!
The doormen, Rafael and José Luis were also most attentive and kind. I came and went a million times throughout the day and they were always quick to open the door and greet me with a smile when I arrived.
We are looking forward to staying at Mariana’s every time we visit CDMX and feel so lucky to have found such a gem.
