Pros: Responsive host, good location, safe neighborhood, comfy bed. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would consider staying here again. The guards are very nice and it’s a nice apartment. It was great being able to walk everywhere. Very close to Patriotismo Metro Station as well.
Improvement: I think the host can provide more details on using the space so you are not left wondering. A binder with some basic instructions/info would be super helpful.
Access: There’s a doorbell on the wall which I didn’t see since I arrived late at night. I was not sure how to get in/out. The guards are supposed to give you a key to the front door, this wasn’t clear.
Wifi: User/password was incorrect in their email. Use the info written on the router.
TV: No idea how to use the 3 different remotes.
Drinkable water: I was tired and thirsty when I arrived late at night and since you cannot drink the tap water this caused some stress. It would be nice for the host to provide a bottle of water or instructions on what looked like a filtered water spout at the sink. I didn’t use it because I didn’t know.
Shower: It takes awhile for the hot water to kick in and there is not much water pressure. It just helps to understand why and to not panic thinking you are going to have cold showers during your stay.
Noise: Again, this is part of the CDMX experience, but would be good to know that you are on an boisterous street. For example the restaurant on the corner is open until 6am(!) I used the fan to drown out the noise, but this might not appeal to some people. The pigeons didn’t bother me, but one night one of the neighbor started building something at 1am.
