Location: This place is in the middle of Mexico’s public market hustle and bustle. Lots of historic buildings, local food vendors, fast food options, and stores for general needs. The area is old so you mights see boarded windows, graffiti, etc, but it’s safe. There seems to be lots of street closures, however that could have just been during my stay. Also, this area can get loud early mornings during the week, and bumper to bumper traffic during most of the business day.
Apartment: Small clean space, in my opinion this is great for a solo traveler or couple. It’s fully equipped w all your needs w a small balcony. Shower gets really warm but not hot. Rooftop is a bonus for extra space. Super secure building w 24/hr security.
Value: Great! Uber to more modern parts of Mexico City or walk if you like, very scenic and safe route to some of my fav areas like Reforma, Condessa, or Roma. Zocola is one block away. Uber’s are super affordable.
Highlights: Local street vendors and markets, Zocola, historic buildings.
