Having never been to Mexico, we did not know what to expect. This was a little bit farther from the action than we had hoped, so we did a fair amount of walking. Yara was so good about giving directions and recommending places to eat and neighborhoods to visit. The apartment is well stocked and was adequate (although as much as we tried, the wifi never worked for us). Be prepared for stairs and also be aware it is on a bus line so at times it was noisy. We did spend one evening on the rooftop terrace with some Mezcal, but don't drink too much or you may not make it down! :-)
