Really enjoyed the stay here and the wonderful host Francisco. His recommendations for dining were all spot on: Lardo, just a few blocks away we went to several times for dinner and breakfast. Always a winner - the parpadelle with ragu was great. Also the guava roll for breakfast. Then Cedron, also very close by is a good upscale restaurant for dinner or late lunch. The BBQ at El Hidalguense (sp?) on the weekends is also great. From the location we walked to everything and could also get to the metro stop easily. The metro map which Francisco provided was super helpful. Showers are good - hot water comes quickly. Apartment can be cold so be sure to have a wrap or sweater for mornings and evenings. Building is also chilly (hallways). We thought La Condesa was a perfect neighborhood for us to stay in - nice cafe’s and restaurants with a very neighborhood feel. Water was filtered so no need to purchase. Washer/dryer worked great.
