Alex's place is in a nice location. It is very close to lots of cool shops and delicious restaurants but a couple blocks north of the commotion so it was a quiet and relaxing environment to come back to after being on our feet all day. It is quite a hike to the top of the stairs but we appreciated getting an extra workout in between all our meals in the neighborhood. The apartment was clean, cool, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed coming back in the late afternoon and reading out on the terrace.
I would recommend Alex's apartment to anyone visiting Mexico city!
