Thomas was a wonderful and gracious host! He went out of his way to keep track of our flight so he could be home to greet us. He sat us down and gave us some pointers for places to go/eat and a map of the surrounding area. He was very easy to communicate with and easy to get a hold of!
The room itself was very cute and the private balcony was a great touch. It was a little smaller than we expected. Everything was thoughtfully arranged and there was no clutter so we were just fine and did not feel cramped, although if we had any more luggage it would have been difficult to get around. Be aware that this room is up about a flight and a half of narrow stairs, and we hauled our own luggage upstairs. We are light packers so it was just fine for us, but not recommended for anyone with mobility issues. The shared third floor balcony made it easy to enjoy the beautiful weather and fawn over the very happy plants! The room does not have AC - like most places in CDMX - which means we left the windows open all the time. The temperature was usually pretty perfect and that was not a problem, but we did feel that our privacy suffered a little bit because of it. Additionally, the sewage system in CDMX makes it such that any enclosed space will build up a VERY strong sewage smell - we learned this the hard way after the first night, when we closed the bathroom window and the bathroom door to sleep. We found that we could keep the bathroom door shut but the bathroom window open without a problem, but if anyone is paranoid about security that may be an issue.
Overall we had a great time! There is a 7-Eleven around the corner and a couple of cute coffee shops within close walking distance. Within 15-30 minutes of walking are the hopping areas of Condesa and Roma Norte for anyone who wants some nightlife, and you can also make it to Bosque Chapultapec during the day for exploring.
