The apartment is exactly as pictured. We were a family of 4, 2 girls (11/15) and 2 adults. There are only a few things that caused my star rating to only be 4 stars. I will start with the cons. However these may not be cons for everyone. To start there is no A/C (air conditioning). Normally this is not a big deal in Mexico City but they have been abnormally hotter then usual. All the locals did agree it was unseasonably warmer. DF hot months are April and May. The apartment is at the very top floor so it gets great sunlight but gets very hot inside by noon. Luckily by the evening the temperature would drop to the 50s so it made sleep pleasant. The apartment comes with a tower fan (large) and a smaller fan (like for a desk) so only 1 fan for each bedroom. However that was not enough for us so we would open windows to let the heat out. I did request another tower fan (larger) but they said they could not accommodate our request because of something about how much power it uses. But as I mentioned we remedy the situation by opening the windows. The bad part about that we got eaten up every night by mosquitos. The second issue the master bedroom mattress was VERY firm. This may not be a problem because some may prefer a firmer mattress. The other room had a softer mattress and that was nice. Also the master bedroom was the only room with storage to put clothes in. So if another couple is staying in the other room there is no storage provided. You will either need to share the master bedroom storage or leave it in your suitcase. Bathrooms were very lovely however I think they could use better shower heads. It was a large shower head with rain effect which makes it difficult to remove the shampoo. But this may not be a big deal for most. Lastly there are very few outlets in the apartment. So if everyone has devices to charge you will find it challenging.
PROS!!!!!!
LOCATION-LOCATION it was in the perfect neighborhood. You don't have to go far to find food, nightlife and museums. I absolutely love the neighborhood. I cannot recommend how convenient this is. The apartment complex always made me feel safe. There was a doorman at all times. I also found the area was not as noisy. I've visited in the past and I experienced more noise when I've stayed at the Marriott. Second- the hosts were wonderful. I received a text while I was at the airport welcoming us and providing the door code. When we arrived they left us treats in the fridge and on the dinner table. They provide lovely soaps, toothpaste and toothbrush in each bathroom! The TV allows for access to your favorite TV Apps or to cast from your phone. The Wifi was great and never felt slow. The kitchen had the amenities we needed. We ate dinner a few times at the apartment because we would bring food back and having plates, cups and napkins was useful. The apartment was at the very top of the building so the views were absolutely amazing!!!! This is the primary reason we stayed here. I have so many beautiful photos from the rooftop. I would definitely come back and stay here during cooler weather but I absolutely loved the neighborhood and you will not be disappointed!
