If you are staying in Mexico City for the first time, I strongly advise staying in the historic center. Yes, Ubers may be a little bit of a headache since this area gets congested, but the vibrancy and history all around you will make up for any inconveniences. Flavia y Maurico’s Airbnb was the best of the three places I stayed at during my 10-day visit to CDMX: The apartment is located on a really quiet street (walking up and down Calle Luis González Obregón at any time of the day was great). Oxxo and 7Eleven shops aren’t too far away, but if you want the extra convenience, download Rappi. Because the apartment has been recently renovated, everything is modern and in good condition. The layout of the space is awesome for any remote work, while the WiFi was reliable enough to get through a work day (Netflix and YouTube could’ve loaded better on the bedroom television, but not a dealbreaker). Don’t forget to check the rooftop, which provides a scenic backdrop of some of the surrounding historic buildings. Lastly, the two guards on-duty during my visit were very respectful and welcoming. This Airbnb gets 5 stars from me.
