Lucia's place is a wonderful apartment to stay at for a short or long stay, for business or for pleasure. Where does one start to explain what an exceptional experience it is to stay here? TLDR; 5 star in everything and if you want a Superhost who knows the city inside out and can give you whatever space you want, then this is the place for you. Additional plus - great place for people who have back problems and need a comfortable bed.
The bed is a 5 our of 5 stars. I suffer from lower back pain and it gets worse on a bad bed...my back pain got better sleeping here. It's very relaxing to sleep in that bed and in the room where it's surprisingly quiet given the popular area it's located in. The bedroom has a well mounted TV with a chromecast so you can stream anything you want. Some previous guests mentioned mosquitos...I experienced this the first few nights but then Lucia had an expert come by and take a look at the premises and fix the problem...the next day there were no more mosquitos left and I never experienced anything afterwards.
The rest of the apartment is welcoming...this is truly a real airbnb where you live in someone's clean and well designed home that immediately makes you feel at home. The hairless Mexican dog, Nana, is fantastic and a great presence to have around...she is very sweet and will give you your space if you want it. She will never go into your room. I particularly enjoyed the filtered water and amazing kitchen and living room.
Let's move on to communication. From start to finish, Lucia had flawless communication. She was the first host to answer my questions when I was looking for a place to stay and she was very quick. At any point in my stay Lucia always answered within 5 minutes at the most...and I really didn't need to ask much. Lucia is also a local and knows all the best spots to eat and visit. You couldn't feel more welcome and taken care of here.
The only drawback is that you are often invited to their meals and food for free and you get to experience real Mexican hospitality. Speaking more seriously, the room could use some darker blinds for those people who want to sleep in really late and are very easy to wake up. I never mentioned this to Lucia as it was fine for me, honestly the bed and pillows make it impossible to leave the bed and not have a good nights rest! Knowing how accommodating they are, I have no doubt they would make the necessary changes if it were asked.
This is honestly a 5 star place with a 5 star host in a 5 star neighborhood.
