Tom's place is great. This was my first trip to Mexico City to visit a friend, and I couldn't have had a better experience.

The building itself is impressive and it's obvious a lot of effort has gone into the design and upkeep of the building. Also, it's centrally located so you can walk to many sites and neighborhoods if you choose, and the metrobus and subway stations are nearby. There is also a grocery store and pharmacy a few blocks away.

The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and is so much nicer than staying in a hotel. Unlike some other Airbnb apartments and hotels I've stayed in, the bath towels and sheets here were of high quality and the mattress was firm. The kitchen is well-equipped for light cooking, there was always hot water for showers, and the WiFi connection was strong.

And unlike some Airbnb hosts who I never met and with whom I had limited contact, Tom is eager to help and make sure your stay in Mexico City is a pleasant one. Whenever I ran into him, he asked if I needed anything or if he could be of assistance, such as arranging a taxi to take me to the airport. I also overheard him helping other guests as well. He has plenty of ideas and suggestions on where to go whether it's in Mexico City or the surrounding areas.

I will definitely be back to Mexico City, and I certainly plan on staying at Tom's!
