We rented this apartment for a week. By the 4th day, it was no longer bearable to stay here so we left for a hotel. I appreciate Andy's communication and attempting to fix things, but after a few days it was taking up more time to deal with the apartment problems than I was willing to spend on my vacation. Thankfully Airbnb has reimbursed me for my hotel stay. I would not stay here again.
Pros:
-Location is great, walking distance to almost anything in Condesa, Roma, Chapultepec, Tacubaya, etc.
-Wifi was pretty good (fast 5G in the living room, slower in the bedroom). I was able to record a podcast on zoom with no blips.
-Good closet space & lots of hangers
-Shower was very nice and spacious, decent pressure, though takes a long time to heat up
-Separate toilet from shower
Cons:
-Not good for tall people - bed is smaller than described (double, not queen); both pull out couch and bed in bedroom are extremely uncomfortable. Extra sheets were locked away and cleaning lady had to be sent the next day to provide us with sheets for the pull out bed. Had 4 nights of awful sleep.
-On day 4 we came home to discover roaches in the living room
-Space heater did not work - Andy sent a mechanic to fix it, he said he fixed it, then it stopped working again the next day
-Outdoor chairs were still broken (though I specifically asked Andy in advance of my stay whether they would be fixed).
-Like other reviews say, apt in winter is EXTREMELY cold (colder than outside).
-Cigarette smoke comes in through bathroom vents, doesn't go away even if you run the fans (loud) all day and night
-Very few amenities - I had to go buy hand soap (insane that this wasn't provided during a pandemic!!!) upon arrival
