My experience staying at Victor's place was not as smooth as I expected and this was more unfortunate than his fault.
To start off with, I would say that Victor is amazing, extremely communicative and does what he can to help you have a good stay. He even let me do a late check-out since my flight was late at night.
However, I did have a few issues. Right up front was the bathroom situation. While I did know it was shared, I didn't know its in the lobby so there were others who were using it as well. (We even had a nasty situation but Victor jumped right in and fixed it for me.) Its also a little more cramped than the pictures show so if you're a tall person, be prepared! The room I stayed in was the first so many a time I could hear noise from other travelers as they walked in and out. It's cute and looks EXACTLY like the pictures but there are no hangers or racks or closet space (which can be a problem if you have coats/towels,etc.) And its fairly clean but I did find a cockroach on one night. The wifi is also not so great if you want to do serious work, it would stop quite often while I was sending out work emails.
Would I still recommend this place though? Absolutely! And here's why:
It's oh so cheap cheap, extremely safe (behind 3 locked and password protected gates) and close to the touristy spots. If you're a solo female traveler in Mexico city, that matters more than anything else! And Victor was always available and speaks great English - another boon for a non Spanish speaker like me.
