The neighborhood is really great! As a single woman traveling I felt pretty safe and it's only a two minute walk from the metro which can pretty much take you anywhere. There are few nearby bakeries which I loved (Panaderia Alma Con Miga has a great multigrain loaf and Farina Rustica has a great garlic baguette). There is also a vegetarian/vegan restaurant with great prices only a five minute walk away (El Tivoli de La Sombrita). There is also a 711, many mini marts, and a few markets near the park.
The studio is small but for one person it was comfortable. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
As far as the dogs, they are cute and friendly, although after a month I found their presence slightly overwhelming personally.
There is a balcony area to hang your clothes if you wash them. They were kind enough to let me use their washer one time but there are lavanderias in the area (Though I don't recommend to go to Lavenderia Sabe Clean).
All in all, I would stay here again!
