Abdeel & Christina we’re great hosts and easy to communicate with. Unfortunately the lovely historic home I booked in Condesa, was not where we were placed. The host sent a text the night before we left for Mexico City, telling us that they were upgrading us. I assumed we would be upgraded within the same complex, but when we arrived at the address provided, we were in a completely different location, in a modern apartment building and not at all what I had originally booked (I’m pretty picky with where I stay). I decided to cancel after the first night and booked us into a boutique hotel in the heart of Condesa. Turns out we had been ‘upgraded’ because the original building had been damaged in a hail storm, but none of this was communicated and we were thoroughly confused for 24 hours.
All this being said, the hosts were very accommodating, apologetic, and easy to work with. I think the language barrier was biggest reason for confusion, but in the end, everything worked out. The modern apartment we stayed in for the first night was beautiful, spacious & clean, just not what I wanted🙃
