I feel honored to be Carolina’s first guest to stay here. Carolina was so sweet and without a doubt would I consider staying here again. My stay was a month long and it exceeded my expectations so much!
To begin the location is perfect! You’re less than a few minutes walk from the metrobus on Insurgentes in which takes you anywhere in the city fast for just 6 pesos! The place is also located right across the street from the Buenavista Mall. There’s quite a few great coffee shops to walk from, street food stands, and delicious restaurants in the area. There’s a market nearby to go grocery shopping and laundry mats to wash your clothes. My favorite part about Carolina’s place was the fully stocked kitchen. It’s perfect if you get tired of eating out or simply want to cook from home. She has everything you need to make a delicious meal.
The area is certainly safe and I didn’t have any issues as a solo female traveler. The area has more locals than tourists which is perfect if your mission is to truly dive into the culture while visiting. A recommend this area over area like Condesa and Roma, as those areas are catered to tourists and it can be easy to feel like you’re back at home.
The apartment appears just as shown in photos. There’s hot water, a fan if you get warm and it’s usually not warm in Mexico City and there’s also fast wifi. I was able to work from the apartment with no wifi issues. Carolina greeted me upon arrival and she was in great communication with me the entire stay. Thanks so much Carolina! Can’t wait to stay with you again!
