Penelope was out of town when we arrived, but was prompt with reply and left clear instructions on how to get the keys. Her housekeeper provided us with an informative tour.

The airbnb is cozy and good for one person or a couple. As other reviews have mentioned, there is a somewhat tight spiral staircase getting down to the room and many stores getting to the airbnb, so maybe pack light. Once in though, there is a good area to store clothes. The building was very unique and beautiful.

The location is great if you enjoy the bustle of the big city. La Condesa is an extremely safe and European like neighborhood, with many bars and international food options. It is also nice walk to museums and other cultural sights.
