This was our first time paying an extended visit to Mexico City and we feel we really lucked out with Diego and Javier's room. First and foremost, the location can't be beat! If you're planning to spend some time in CDMX, whatever you do, don't book anything in the historic 'Centro' district. While there are some great sites and beautiful museums in the city center, much of it is shops, fast-food joints and street vendors. Instead, stay in the Condesa or Roma neighborhoods. Many of the nicest museums, parks and neighborhoods, as well as literally every good restaurant in the city, were within walking distance of this place. We especially recommend Huset for a romantic meal, and Forever for great vegan food. Roma Norte can be noisy at night but our apartment, number 3, was towards the back of the building and shielded by lush foliage. Only the loudest of police sirens dimly penetrated the walls. The apartment was clean, cheerful, tastefully decorated, and just steps away from a lovely little shared patio. Overall it was pretty much the perfect launchpad to explore Mexico City! Oh, and here's a tip: take Metro Line 3 to Indios Verdes station and hop on the brand-new 'Cable Bus' aerial tramway for a cracking birdseye view of the colorful blue-collar northern suburbs of the city.
