The district or "colonia" is called Alamos which has a great park for running or just to sit and read. There is also Mercado Alamos, which is an open market for shopping.
I lived at Laura's apartment for eight months and I really felt like it was home.
The metro is just a few minutes walking from the apartment and the metro stop is "Viaducto" which is just a few stops from Zocalo or the center of the city.
However, the only thing I will say to travelers is that Alamos is in the flight path of the airport. So, there is noise from the planes overhead. However, if you are a long term guest, you get used to it.
The photos don't do the apartment justice. This is a two-bedroom, one bathroom apartment and the second bedroom was perfect for an office. There is a large desk and quite a bit of shelf space in the closet.
The refrigerator is decent size and the washing machine is a combination washer/dryer. However, on the rooftop there are clothes lines, if you like to air dry.
The roof is pretty cool also, just to hang out and see part of the skyline.
Walmart is only 3 stops away and they deliver to your door. I shopped with them for heavy bulk items like water, juice etc.
We hosted Laura a few times during our stay and she is really a great host and person. We enjoyed our conversations with her over coffee and tea.
The neighbors are really nice also, they say hello in the building and also at the store.
The television is great and is a smart tv, which connects to wifi and you can watch Netflix, YouTube etc.
I will absolutely go back to Laura's apartment in the future and I recommend it for travelers to Mexico City.
