Absolutely stunning apartment in the luxe Polanco neighborhood of Mexico City. I spent 18 days here and cannot recommend this place enough. It’s an incredible deal for the space, location, building amenities, and host. I’ll be back next time I’m in CDMX.
SECURITY
As a first-time visitor to CDMX, I was most concerned about safety. This building is in the safest neighborhood and has 24-hr security. You can walk around at night without feeling unsafe.
LOCATION
*It’s Polanco, home of the fanciest restaurants and shops in CDMX. If you aren’t looking to spend a ton every time you go out, the neighborhoods Roma and Condesa are short Ubers away. The historic City center is also a short Uber ride away. Overall, the location is perfect.
*There’s an amazing grocery store less than 5 mins away which is convenient for getting water and any other groceries you might need during your stay.
*Museo Soumaya and Jumex are literally around the corner (walking)
*There’s also a Ferrari dealer at the end of the street if that’s what you’re looking for lol
AMENITIES
The building itself has great amenities. *Jacuzzi and pool: only minus is the pool is incredibly hot - like bathtub hot (not exaggerating). It’s still nice to swim in but sometimes I wondered why it was so hot.
*Enclosed outdoor area: great to work from remotely. They even have a separate playground if you have kids.
*Gym: well-stocked gym with very new, high quality equipment. Only thing is it doesn’t have A/C, so go in the morning or at night.
*The apartment itself is fantastic - only minus is that there isn’t A/C so it gets pretty hot, but it’s not unbearable.
HOST
Incredibly communicative, bilingual (Eng/Es), very accommodating. I accidentally locked one of the bedrooms and the host responded at 2am to help me unlock the door.
