We absolutely LOVED our stay here. The communication was perfect and the hosts are incredibly responsive. Communicating with them was so easy (before booking and even throughout our stay they were available to us to answer any questions, etc). The hosts kept us apprised of local events and shared a great overview of where to go and what to avoid. We felt so, so, SO welcomed here, and so at home. We hope to be back soon!!
Check-in:
Super easy. Check in with the guard and provide your ID. Then you get a code and can easily punch the code into the door for ins and outs. Easy.
Proximity:
Very near amazing restaurants (Lardo, and so many more!) Great coffee and breakfast around the corner, near Chapultapec part, easy to get to Polanco and Roma Norte, Hipodromo, so many other neighborhoods. There is also a walmart express nearby so it's easy to pick up the small things you might need (groceries like eggs, almond milk, etc).
Safety:
We felt incredibly safe in the building because there's a doorman and he is there 24/7 to let us in and out. The neighborhood and area itself felt pretty safe too though we did avoid walking alone at night and took ubers home when it was dark just to be on the safe side (since it is near a highway).
Overall Space:
The condo is quite spacious with 3 bedrooms and 2-3 desks throughout the home. Wifi is stable and it's easy for multiple people to work from home from here. It does get a bit warm during the day (we were here in June) but the hosts have already thought of that, and provided fans. The highway isn't too noisy; it didn't stand out to us at all.
View:
The view is seriously *****incredible**** and because it's a corner unit so you have a lot of privacy. The expansive windows bring in lots of warm sunlight and you feel connected to the city and the nearby park. The expansive windows also do mean the space warms up quickly but this depends on the season, and it didn't bother us too much.
Closet Space:
Both bedrooms are spacious and offer luxurious and sufficient closet space for an extended stay. The larger closet has a steamer that was very useful! Really appreciate that this was there. I used it almost daily. Worked perfectly well.
Bedrooms:
The bedrooms are spacious and the beds and bedding are very comfortable.
Who should rent this place:
This is a great space for a couple, four friends, or a family of four. Any more than that would absolutely be manageable, but if you're looking for spaciousness and comfort this place has all of that, and I wouldn't want to lose that comfort by bringing in more than 4 people into the space. There are other airbnbs in the same building so if you're planning a large family gathering or bachelorette, this would be a great main apartment and the other apartment(s) in the building would be good for the remaining guests.
Cooking:
They already have various pots and pans, olive oil, simple ingredients.
We didn't lack a single thing during our stay here and truly felt right at home. To the hosts - muchas gracias por todo. We hope to come back soon!!!
