The location of the apartment is great, right in Roma Norte, In perhaps the best street, call Colima, Restaurants, shops etc etc.
The building is very nice in all concrete you have an elevator that for some reason works only during the day time, don’t know why, doorman always present.
Mr W was very reactive and answered to all my messages within no time, he connected me to Edmundo, his property manager and communication was smooth.
The check in was also very easy, the doorman gives you the key and you can easily head to your apartment.
After we checked in, I received a call that they wanted to show the apartment to some clients.. while we were in, which I found it very odd!
The apartment layout is nice, the living room gets enough sunlight during the day but keep in mind that you are facing the internal patio and if you want privacy you need to roll down the curtains and kind of blocking the natural light, yes because you face another apartment living room and the stairs building and can be slightly awkward.
Its a convenient place of you don’t really need to spend time at home, but if you work remotely, we’ll forget about internet, a very dodgy connection, funny enough cause I asked to the owner and he insured me that internet was very stable, well no, luckily you have a lovely coffee place just on the corner Constela cafe if you have to work and have a proper connection, FYI zoom/ Google or any other video calls are not supported with the apartment connection.
Working remotely means that you live in a place for longer than 7 days and that lovely washing machine that you see pictures in the presentation , oh well forget about it it doesn’t work and I had to find out by myself after most of my clothes were soaking wet!
I had to ask and the responses was yep it doesn’t work. It would’ve be nice to leave a note I don’t think it takes so much
The apartment overall is very outdated, you can tell that no one is really taking care of it and I believe it was never refreshed from the late 90s.
Showers have hot water, but the showers head are full of calc and the water goes everywhere.
Lastly, the walls are super extra thin and you can hear everything from the one above you and I’m sure the family that lives on the first floor can hear you perfectly.
Good note is that at night is super quiet and you can get some quality sleep.
Overall don’t stay here if you have to work if you need a good location then it is ok but don’t expect much.
Overall score 2.5/5
