What a beautiful jewel box. It was so comfortable, bright and sunny. Raphael's place has much more than I am used to, especially in the kitchen.
The biggest benefit here, at least to me, who got so sick in Mexico in 2019, is 4-times filtered water that you can drink right from the special tap. I love being able to cut down on plastic bottles!
I cook nearly all my meals, and having a fantastic 6-burnner stove & oven, a top-of-the line refrigerator-freezer, and drawers of kitchen utensils was fantastic. Add to that, a washing machine. A beautiful Apple-Samsung home sound system. I think there was more built-in closet and drawers than anywhere I have previously stayed.
Rafael was a perfect host. The apartment was absolutely spotless. He met me out front as there is 24-hour, 1 or 2 -person security (with an in-unit phone for emergency calls to security) and he helped me and the taxi navigate to the underground parking-elevator and helped with my luggage.
The internet is great! Super-fast, and there is an office if needed. Phone service was always spot-on.
The apartment is across the street from a huge mercado, and is central and within walking distance of so much to do and see. The laundry is less than a block, where I took my sheets for 15 pesos each. A few doors down from that is a top-notch medical center, with a pharmacy, laboratory, and specialist doctors.
It was just me this trip, but the place would be just fine for 2 people.
I love this place, and would recommend it to anyone who wants a piece of heaven in central Mexico City.
