The apartment was clean, small, and good if you don’t want to spend a lot of time there… i.e. want to be out more… experiencing the city. It was very dark and the lighting was not natural. The walls are thin, so be prepared to hear people going up and down the stairs and listening to television in nearby apartments. There is construction nearby, so the rooftop garden, which is a nice feature (small and quaint) is not very peaceful. It is CDMX, so I suppose that’s to be expected. Also, the owner of this apartment complex… it’s basically set up to be duplicate air bnb listings in one building, Rodolfo, was not understanding that I wanted to change my reservation and accepted one change begrudgingly before I arrived, but not a second after I arrived. When I did not like the apartment personally, even though I paid extra for the first change, and the policy is supposedly flexible, he refused to change my reservation even though I gave notice very early in the morning. I ended up leaving this apartment and paying for an extra night because Rodolfo would not accept my request. I think this apartment is good for most people who don’t care about spending time in the apartment. I, however, did not really feel happy here.
The best part of my stay was Francisco. He is a cohost. He was very friendly, affable, considerate and lovely to talk to with many helpful recommendations. Francisco tried to help accommodate me in any way he could. Whereas Rodolfo didn’t really seem to care about my comfort or desire to find different accommodations, and Rodolfo was the one calling the shots with reservation changes. 5 stars for Fransisco. 2.5 stars for Rodolfo. The apartment… clean, but meh… it did have hot water with good pressure.
