The bedroom was comfortable. The bed was firm. The private bath was a nice option to have, but the shower was either very hot or cold. In my 4 weeks there, I could not find a way to keep the water at a consistent temperature. The location of the apartment is prime. You are in walking distance to many Condessa restaurants and parks. Public transit is also easily accessed. I was able to take the metro from the airport. If you have trouble sleeping, the area around the apt. can be loud.
Perhaps my biggest issue was with the kitchen. While there was plenty of room in the refrigerator, and access to cooking one’s own meals is mentioned in the description, the kitchen itself was often messy. Dishes in the sink, pots on the stove, food left around, etc.. made the prospect of preparing a meal less appealing. The microwave had issues while I was there, and the stove needed to have it’s pilot light restarted. There was a lack of dishtowels/paper towels for drying/cleaning. Also a lack of a proper trashcan in the kitchen was an annoyance. It never felt like there was a dedicated space for a guest to sit and eat, with the dining room table given over to the landlords work, and the kitchen nook very small and often in need of straightening.
Being that I was there for 4 weeks, some of these issues felt magnified. If you are visiting for a short period, want to be centrally located, and plan on taking your meals in Condessa/Roma’s many fantastic restaurants and cafes, then the savings with the low rate would be appealing.
