Paula's place is in a prime location as it's close to many great bars, restaurants, and other attractions—albeit on a quiet and safe street. My favorite restaurants in Condesa (Lardo + Hugo) were less than 100m away (1 minute walk) It was my first time in CDMX and found Paula's Casa Melgar perfect for me as I traveled solo. It was the perfect place to wind down after a long day of exploring the city. I definitely heard the barking of the dogs, as mentioned in other reviews, but it didn't bother me during my stay at all.
I'd say that it's worth mentioning that I would wake up in the middle of the night whenever it would rain—as it seems as the roof is quite thin and therefore the sound of the rain pour magnified. By any means, my stay was excellent and would recommend staying at Casa Melgar! Paula's communication is superb and seamless and she was very responsive to answer any of my questions. Can't wait to come back and visit— thanks again, Paula!
