Being a Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera fan, I had always wanted to visit Mexico city. My husband is a big history buff so wanted to do a day trip to the Teotihuacan pyramids. The apartment was our very own 'Casa Azul' with lovely private roof deck which was nice even in late November/December. The Spanish colonial architecture was beautiful, offset by very nice modern interior design. the immediate neighbourhood was great for eating - try Café Toscana for delicious breakfasts, Blanco Colima for fine dining in a cool atmosphere as just two very close examples! The subway system is very cheap (5 pesos) or Uber are the two easiest ways to get around. Highly recommend doing your homework before you go - some museums close Mondays or Tuesdays so worth checking. Buy tickets in advance for the Frida Kahlo museum online and skip the big queues. Also worth going to the Diego Rivera murals at the Education building in the Historic district - amazing and hardly anyone else there! Only downside to the apartment was that it had no guide books or local recommendations, so doing your own homework before you arrive will pay dividends. Otherwise Nathalie and Renata were excellent hosts!
