Ale's place was fantastic, easily the best airbnb I've stayed at in Mexico. The place was new, stylish, squeaky clean, and well furnished.
It's worth re-iterating that this place is well furnished. I've stayed at airbnbs that are furnished to the minimum, they have what you need to get you through a couple of days, and it's clear the owner picked the cheapest things. Ale's place is the total opposite, it had everything you would expect a home to have (and often more), and the quality of the furnishings was exceptional. It really made it feel like a home.
The space itself is beautiful, especially in the mornings as the sun provides plenty of natural light through the many windows. Exceptional kitchen and bathroom. Very comfortable bed.
Ale was quick to answer any questions, and super hospitable. Seriously, above and beyond. The building security guard was also friendly and helpful.
The location is Escandon, which is one of my favorite neighborhoods. It's a short walk to Roma/Condesa. It doesn't have the overwhelming number of hip food options as Roma does, but it's also not overwhelmingly touristy like Roma is.
It's also worth saying that this place was super quiet. Mexico packing list item #1 is earplugs because many places are quiet noisy at night, but I never used them once at this apartment.
When I come back to mexico city, I'll definitely be booking this place.
