The location, and condo we stayed in were both undeniably great. The Polanco neighborhood is ideal for walkers, and the tower the condo in had tons of entertainment, restaurants and a grocery at the bottom - which you can bring a cart with you (pro-tip so you don’t carry a 5 gallon water jug back like I did).
The good:
Condo was clean, and quite spacious. It came equipped with mostly everything you’d need for a stay, and was kindly stocked with toiletries for use. The pool is nice, you just have to be cool with a lot of kids being around.
The mixed:
Once you understand the easiest route to getting to the unit it’s pretty easy to recall, but it does require a lot of walking through halls, and multiple elevators just to reach the exit.
My issues were:
Last minute change of the unit we were staying in, it did work out kind of well in the sense that we were on a higher level, with a lovely view.
The bed would have been softer if it was made of granite.
While they do advertise that there is no AC in the unit, the fans provided did nothing to help. The room never got below 27 degree Centigrade (81F), and we stayed in May. It was actually cooler outside than in the unit.
After initial contact the host was non-communicative. After being told our unit changed right before arriving, I didn’t hear anything else, which was a bit upsetting as you need a code to access the unit. Luckily it was the same between listings, but you wouldn’t know.
