Location is the best thing about this place, near many places in south Condesa and Hipodromo. Stores, clubs, tacquerias and restaurants, gyms, parks all within walking distance.
The walkway outside the door has a lot of people going in and out. They may be the people who live upstairs. This seems to be a garage that was converted to a studio, and there's another apartment on top. You can hear the people walking upstairs but I got used to it.
Lis was out of town so I didn't get to meet her, but her written messages were very welcoming and helpful. She provided a useful guide book. When I asked for more trash bags and coffee she was quick to respond that I could ask someone up front for them.
The lack of a sink in the kitchen is a bit of an inconvenience but not the end of the world. I just didn't cook. But to rinse out glasses you have to take them to a sink outside in the back. There's a small dorm-style refrigerator with a tiny compartment for ice and I didn't see ice trays even for that small freezer.
The hot water in the shower seems to last 3-4 minutes before it starts to turn lukewarm so have to get used to fast showers.
It was nice to have the big tank of filtered water already there.
I gave 5 stars because the price was low so you get what you pay for. I stayed a week and wouldn't want to stay longer than that. It starts to feel cramped after awhile and I was just one person. I ended up going somewhere else after a week for $15 more per night for a "real" apartment with washer-dryer, sink, and a lot more space.
