We stayed at Jorge's place for a two week working holiday. The location is absolutely perfect. A 15 min walk to Roma Norte and a 3 min walk to the metro. Mercado Juarez is right next door for easy and cheap food and groceries. Jorge was very helpful and responsive. Area felt surprisingly safe, even to walk alone at night. Security/front desk guards were super friendly and we felt safe.
A few notes for those who want to stay longer at this location:
- Wifi was fast (two zoom calls at once on VPN was no issue)
- The gym is currently open but limited to 1 hour sessions that require Jorge to make an appointment on your behalf
- There is laundry in the building, but only takes specialized coins. You will need to transfer money to the building's management via any BBVA atm (cash, no fees) or wire transfer (we couldn't get this to work, but would have had a $15 fee). When you present this receipt to the front desk, they will give you the coins. TLDR; plan your laundry in advance.
- There is a trash chute in a room past the elevators on the opposite side of the building (no recycling)
