Andres' father met us at the room (my only gripe is that this apartment, while a separate unit, is more of a bedroom and bathroom with a sink and minifridge than apartment) and spent half an hour giving us a great rundown of the area complete with a map and neighborhood food recommendations. The neighborhood is safe and about 15 minutes from downtown, which was about a 15 minute/80 peso Uber ride. It is easy walking distance from a great bakery, a few delicious taco stands, and about a five minute walk from the nearest Metro station.
