Everything about Marco and his place is five stars. We have never stayed in better accommodation until we got to Mexico. Marco is super friendly, warm and when you arrive he provides the best overview of not only the apartment but also the surrounds. When you first get to Mexico City it is chaotic. Marco gave us very easy instructions to get us to his apartment. When we arrived Marco greeted us and helped us with our bags. Over a couple of refreshing Mexican beers Marco then presented us with two very comprehensive maps that detail the best restaurants, bars, cafes, public transport options and parks to visit in the area. We got the most thorough walk through of his apartment. A full tour of all the features. Most hosts just hand you the key and you're off. The bathroom, kitchen and all rooms were very tidy and super clean.
The apartment is absolutely stunning. It's located in a quiet street but is only a short stroll to cafes, bars, restaurants, shops and stunning parks. We had the best time in Mexico and can attribute a lot of it also to this apartment. It's not only very affordable but is also beautifully decorated, modern and has everything you need if you want to eat in, beds are so so comfortable. We couldn't rave more. The apartment is suitable for 1-2 couples. Marco also has an amazing collection of books, films and fantastic music. You feel at home and relaxed. The area is very safe. We walked in the evenings and during the day very comfortably around the streets. People are incredibly friendly in Mexico.
We will most definitely return to Mexico and would love to stay here again. Mexico city is hectic and exciting. Marco's place is a paradise in the big smoke of Mexico. This is the place to stay.
