The description was accurate. The apartment is located in a great part of town, a block away from a park with a jogging track and heated basketball games. There's also a mall with a big cinema and a couple of large supermarkets a few minutes away. The subway is very close as well. It's Linea 3, which is a few stops away from Roma and Centro in the north and Coyoacan in the south.

Jordi's a sweetheart. Very responsive to what I needed. The internet wasn't great at first. Once I told him, he figured out a solution within the day. When I first arrived Jordi took me on a tour of the neighborhood in his car, took me to get groceries, and offered any assistance I could need.

It's a no frills place, the couch is uncomfortable, and the bed is really for one person, so not a great place to bring back a date. However, the couch folds out for another sleeping pad. And for the price your paying in this neighborhood to live privately, it's a good deal. It's also very secure, with an added gate just for this apartment and the one next door. There's a cafe downstairs and a 7 11 at the end of the block that's open 24 hours, should you need a late night hot dog.
