Our stay at Enrique’s place was great. This was my first time in Mexico City. The location in Condesa is perfect- it’s a cute, quiet neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Maria greeted us upon check in and gave us the run down of the space. Enrique offered restaurant recommendations. He also offered to give us a local tour, however, our schedule was busy so we could not take him up on his offer.
Maria was amazing and very helpful. She made us breakfast each morning and she was available if we needed anything. She also gave me a bottle of pepto bismol when my stomach wasn’t feeling great.
I slept in the front bedroom and my friend slept in the upper loft space. The ladder up to the loft bedroom space is very steep, probably not the best for a child or an elderly person. There is a skylight in the loft space so it does become very bright in the morning. The front bedroom faces the street so you can hear the people who clean the streets come by with their brooms every morning (around 5am). The patio is very cute and when we were in the apartment, we mostly sat outside.
I would highly recommend staying at Enrique’s apartment. The apartment truly gives you an authentic, local feel. The apartment is very spacious, clean and there is artwork hanging all throughout the apartment. Thank you for a great stay in Mexico City!
