Let me start off by saying the space is really pretty and quite charming. The barrel vault ceilings are gorgeous and covered with brick and the lighting is wonderful. The place was rehabbed well. All furnishings were comfortable and I loved the king-sized bed, which is rare in CDMX. The double balconies are beautiful and visually the flat does not disappoint. I had no need for the dining room but it was great to have one. The kitchen is pretty basic but you will have what you need.
The location was great and you are close to the Turibus, grocery stores, convenience stores, the metro and walking distance from the Zona Rosa.
Check-in was simple with a touchpad lock at the building and apartment entrance. I really appreciate these because it reduces the stress from losing keys in a city you are visiting.
Keep in mind the apartment is on a high floor and there is no elevator. I had a carry-on suitcase so I was fine. If you have a checked luggage to carry up the stairs, the three flights of stairs might kill you. My first walk up those stairs almost took me out. LOL. In Mexico, the first floor is not counted as "Floor 1". You've been warned.
My only issues were with the temperature of the apartment and the water for the shower.
I've been to CDMX many times and this building was by far the coldest building I have ever stayed in. The concrete of the building must retain the cold temps and at night the flat was freezing to the point where my teeth were chattering. I moved the fireplace into the bedroom to stay warm but that did not help much. I was dying for my down comforter.
The shower is gorgeous but I hated it. The water would get warm for a few seconds and then turn to cold. My short showers would turn into 30-minute showers waiting and hoping the water would warm up. It was so cold in the bathroom that you could see your breath when you exhaled. I was forced to take a couple cold showers because I would lather up and be covered in soap and the only way I could rinse off was with short sprays of cold water until I couldn't take it anymore. The morning of check-out I went to a friend's place and showered there. It was down-right dreadful. THe water temp situation was exactly the same in the kitchen. I had to wash the dishes in cold water. Brrrrr!
All in all, it's a great flat. It's so convenient and close to alot. The area is quiet but there's a lot of action in the circle. I'm not sure I could stay there with the cold water and no heater though. UGH!
I ran into the host when I left the building and made him aware of the issues but I'm not sure there is anything he can do about it. :-(
