This place is not glamorous, but it does not need to be, because it has five important C’s: clean, comfortable, cozy, convenient, and cost-effective! This is a fantastic option for a budget-conscious traveler, as I’ve seen Airbnbs a lot more expensive. This Airbnb is an interesting hybrid of hotel and hostel. I had a private room with a king-size bed + private bathroom, like a hotel, and I appreciate that it had a desk for me to work on. There are great shared hostel-esque facilities such as a stocked kitchen, open air deck, and even a laundry room. I feel if a person needed a long term stay in Mexico City, this would be ideal! The host was also very responsive and helpful, and check in instructions were very clear, at least for me. The surrounding neighborhood has a ton of conveniences such as bakeries, cafes, restaurants, clothing stores, and food markets. The rules are also very reasonable, such as not to be loud at night or bring strangers onto premieres. I would absolutely return to this airbnb and recommend it to others!
The only minor thing I did not like was that there’s no baggage storage. After checking out, I couldn’t leave my bag while exploring Mexico City before heading to airport for my night flight. This isn’t the end of the world, as the airport thankfully has storage lockers, but if the airport didn’t have lockers, I would have been stuck with heavy bags for the whole day.
