The space itself is just as described and it looks beautiful. However, getting checked into this apartment complex was so difficult, and coming and going was so stressful, that we ended up leaving after a day.
Upon arriving, our taxi was stopped by armed guards and it was not at all clear how to get into the complex. We spent 10 frustrating minutes trying to communicate with the cab driver and guards at this apartment complex who would not let us in, despite showing them our reservation information. Finally someone from The Local Way met us and talked to the guards who seemed to reluctantly allow us in. We were given an access card that was useless because it had to be used in combination with a thumbprint reader.
The guards at this building complex speak no English, so unless you are fluent in Spanish this is not a great place to stay, I don't know what we would have done if we couldn't speak some Spanish. After arriving any time we would come and go, the guards wouldn't let us leave without keeping our IDs with them.
We made arrangements to move to another one of The Local Way properties, in Condesa "Laredo 18". It was slightly more expensive, but it was nice and also looked like the photos. Most importantly, it had a more normal process to get in and out. We were not extended any discount of any sort, which would have been a nice thing to offer as a courtesy given the circumstances. In fact, we were told we would be charged extra for breaking a coffee pot at the first property, a coffee pot that was already cracked when we arrived. Something we only discovered after having it leak all over the kitchen and having to clean it up.
Overall, this was a very mixed experience and we would not stay at any of The Local Way properties again.
