Eugenia’s space is incredibly spacious and centrally located in the Roma/Condesa neighborhood. Super easy to get to tons of restaurants, bars, and shopping. We loved the upstairs terrace and living room space because it allowed us to have a secondary space to hang out in when someone else wanted to go to bed early in the rooms downstairs.
Positives:
Super spacious. Came with a party of 7 and we all fit comfortably
Location is amazing, we love this neighborhood and always feel safe and welcome when we stay here
Security is 24 hours and he’s super friendly.
Comfortable beds
A few negatives:
Wifi was incredibly slow/bad. It was a struggle to load any kind of video on our phones, laptops or tablets. Even tiktok and Instagram wouldn’t load most days for some reason. It could be an issue with the number of devices connected, but it made it super annoying/impossible to browse the web during our downtime. If you’re planning on WFH from here, maybe reconsider or ask the host to confirm wifi speed before booking.
There was a lot of noise most mornings around 9am from either construction or some kind of cleaning / power washing nearby. There’s a decent amount of construction throughout the neighborhood so if noise in the mornings bothers you then consider this.
I also wish that for the price we paid, and for it being an Airbnb plus, there should have been extra amenities/goods in the home. We ran out of toilet paper, paper towels, coffee, and bath towels pretty quickly because we were a large party, and it would have been amazing if there was a closet full of these goods for us to use as needed. We stayed for around 10 days so it was annoying to find out from the host that we had to go out and buy our own until the cleaning crew stopped by mid-stay. Even then they still didn’t really bring much extra.
There’s no central heating/cooling in the home, which might not be a problem for most people especially because there’s nice big windows to let air in the home, but it was pretty chilly at night in November and there were only 2 small space heaters provided making it really hard to find somewhere warm to gather inside the home without having to grab the comforters from the beds.
Floors were not so clean unfortunately. We’re shoe free home kind of people and every day by the end of the day the bottoms of our socks/feet would be black with some kind of grime. The space feels super clean but for some reason the floors weren’t as clean as the rest of the home.
