The location is very convent and the downstairs unit was always cool and comfortable. The doorbell for the building is intrusive at times.

The hot water was way too hot making washing dishes very difficult.

El departamento tiene una excelente ubicación, a un costado del Museo Nacional de San Carlos y a sólo un par de cuadras del Monumento a la Revolución. Hay muchos bares, cafés y restaurantes cercanos. Las recámaras son cómodas y muy amplias, con una mesa de pared a pared, ideal para trabajar, y amplio espacio de clóset. Cuenta con un área de lavandería, con dos lavadoras y una secadora y puedes disponer del jabón y suavizante. Es necesario solicitarla previamente, pero está disponible sólo para ti durante dos horas.

Nuestra primera impresión del área no fue buena, pues llegamos por la noche y la calle aledaña es zona roja; el parque de enfrente estaba lleno de trabajadoras. A pesar de eso, se puede transitar por la zona durante la noche, pues debido a los bares y restaurantes cercanos, hay mucho movimiento y vida nocturna. Por otra parte, la cocina es muy reducida, con los espacios muy justos, y el baño tenía moho en el techo. Si tienes el sueño ligero, escucharás ruidos de la calle y de otros departamentos del edificio. La lavandería está en el último piso y no hay elevador.

The location was good.. The apartment was cute and had a lot of light, was well decorated.

The bed on the street side was very squeaky and noisy. This made it difficult to sleep.

Fantastic location – right next to excellent restaurants, including a standout Vietnamese spot and a great little coffee shop called CAFIPU. Friendly and alert doorman, which adds a sense of security. Clean floors upon arrival – a big plus when traveling with a toddler. Entertainment perks – the 4K TV came with a working Netflix subscription. Comfortable sofa, though a bit small. Convenient transportation – easy to catch an Uber right from the doorstep. Excellent Internet Connectivity – WiFi signal was strong throughout the apartment.

Persistent cigarette smoke in the living room during the day, seeping in from smokers just outside our ground floor apartment, even with windows closed. Beds are a nightmare – the cheapest, noisiest spring mattresses imaginable. Every tiny movement causes a racket, waking up everyone. Add to that, in February, the sheets were quite cold. A space heater helped slightly but required constant adjustments in the middle of the night. Unwelcome guest on arrival – we were greeted by a spider dangling from the ceiling like a chandelier. Bathroom issues galore – the water heater ran out of hot water every two minutes. You literally have to switch off the shower, wait, then turn it back on mid-bath.  Maintenance problems – loose tiles in the living room, a missing bulb in one of the two bedrooms, and ceiling fans that only worked at freezing speeds (3 or 5). Power limitations – both bedroom space heaters couldn't be used at the same time without tripping the fuse (at least the fuse box was accessible). Noisy nights – constant disturbances throughout the night from outside and from the floor above us. Bring earplugs if you still plan on staying here. Annoying creaks everywhere – from the cupboards to the beds, every movement felt amplified. No room service – expect to make your own bed and reuse the same towel all week. While it’s not a hotel, the price suggests otherwise.
