We had an amazing time in Mexico City and what made it even better was relaxing in Alex's space while we weren't out sightseeing. Do yourself a favor and book it! The neighborhood is a perfect balance of cozy and interesting, a short walk to amazing parks, restaurants, bars, street food. I don't think I could imagine staying anywhere better than this for the price and, while we explored many neighborhoods, this one felt like home after a week. There is so much to do nearby and everything you'll want to see/do is very accessible by affordable uber rides. Great wifi, incredible communication with hosts, which made us feel very safe and comfortable as two girls in a foreign city. There is a 7-11 a block away for water, snacks, beer, etc. and a pharmacy for the ever needed pepto-bismol. The restaurant across the street will make you feel right at home if you're in need of an easy and delicious meal with friendly service. I wanted to move in and stay for good! Alex even arranged for us to move into another unit for our last night after we miscalculated our check out date. Can't say enough about the warm welcome and send off he and his family provided. Heads up the washer was out of commission while we were there but we managed fine by hand washing. As others mentioned, bring earplugs to block out the street noise as I'm sure anywhere in the city will have this issue as well. Thanks again, to Alex and the girls! ❤️
