A friend and I spent Monday to Friday at Alvaro’s apartment in La Condesa, Mexico City. We loved the apartment and its location and would stay here again.
This is a two-bedroom apartment on the third floor of a four story building. It has a large living room/dining room area, lots of natural light, and a balcony where we spent most of our time when in the apartment just watching the activity on the street. The apartment was very clean when we checked in and has a washer and dryer, which we used once.
The La Condesa neighborhood is nice. I stayed in the bedroom overlooking the street and was worried about street noise, but there was none. There are plenty of eating, drinking, and shopping options nearby. The place is convenient to Chapultepec Park, the Chapultepec metro station (we used the metro several times), and you can hail a taxi on any corner (which we also did several times.) It took us an hour and thirty minutes slow walk to Alameda Central and the Centro Historico.
The beds were very comfortable, and the bathroom towels and linens were good quality. There are two bathrooms with showers, which was convenient.
One thing to note; Arturo, the apartment manager, is very nice and was responsive to our needs (he seems to be the building supervisor, so we saw him every day outside the building doing chores) but does not speak English. If you do not speak Spanish, he will not be much help to you in pointing out local neighborhood highlights. This was not pointed out anywhere I could find in the notes about the place..
