Before you book

What's here and what isn't

All six rooms have the same 15 things. Another 8 don't exist here, and we'd rather say so than disappoint you on arrival: it's why guests write that the place is exactly like the photos.

There is, in all six

  • Room cleaned every 48 hours, on stays of 3 nights or more
  • Towels, sheets, toilet paper and soap
  • Full private bathroom with hot water
  • Portable fan
  • Shampoo, conditioner and soap
  • Hair dryer
  • Nespresso machine with two capsules on the house
  • Minibar with freezer
  • Closet with hangers and room to unpack
  • Extra sheets and blankets if you need them
  • Safe, iron and blackout curtains
  • TV with streaming apps
  • Broadband wifi and a desk to work at
  • Private, independent entrance with a lockbox, any time from 3:00 pm
  • Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguisher and first-aid kit

Daily cleaning — MX$300 per day. Cleaning runs every 48 hours on stays of 3 nights or more, and almost nobody needs more than that. If you want it daily, you can: it's MX$300 per day (about 15 US dollars). Ask for it when you book or during your stay.

There isn't

  • ElevatorYou have to take stairs to reach the rooms and there is no elevator. If you travel with limited mobility, a heavy suitcase or a stroller, factor that in before booking: it's the thing we'd most like to change and can't.
  • Air conditioningThere isn't any. Every room has a fan, and in Mexico City that's almost always enough: the nights are cool all year.
  • HeatingAlso no. In December and January Mexico City nights drop below 10 °C.
  • KitchenThere's a minibar and a coffee machine, but no stove and no sink. You can't cook.
  • Washer or dryerNot in the building. The nearest laundry is a few blocks away.
  • Room for more than twoEach room takes two people maximum. There's no crib and no extra bed.
  • Front deskThere's nobody at the door. You let yourself in with the lockbox from 3:00 pm, and check-out is before 12:00 pm. If nobody is arriving or leaving that day, there's flexibility with the hours: ask us when you confirm.
  • SmokingNot allowed, anywhere. It's in the house rules and carries a MX$1,500 penalty (about 80 US dollars).

What guests say

The three things
that come up most

You hear the street during the day

The building sits above busy ground-floor businesses, among them The Back Yard, the café where guests get 50% off. Several guests mention it and one recommends earplugs if you're a light sleeper. At night it settles down: they say that too.

«You hear street noise during the day but it quiets down at night.»
Andrew, Newport Beach · June 2026

The rooms are compact

They're meant for two people for a few nights. For a long stay with two tall people it can feel tight.

«Space was a little tight for a tall couple over many days.»
Musawenkosi, New York · June 2026

It's a room, not an apartment

You get your own bathroom, your own entrance and your own key. What you share are the building's hallways and stairs. There's no front desk and no communal kitchen.

There are cameras in the common areas

There are security cameras at the entrance, in the hallways and on the stairs. Inside your room and your bathroom there are none, and there never will be. We say it here because we'd rather you knew before you arrive.

The neighborhood

Where you're standing

You're on the seam where Roma Norte turns into Condesa: Bakers is seventy paces away on Durango, Lardo opens at seven on Agustín Melgar, and Parque España is a seven-minute walk down Acapulco — ash trees, dogs and runners from early on. Metro Chapultepec, the pink line, is six minutes away via Veracruz, so a car is rarely worth the trouble here.

Why it costs
less here

When you book through a platform, part of what you pay goes to a service fee. Booking direct, that fee doesn't exist, and we'd rather pass the saving to you than keep it. Same room, same key, same people behind it.

  • No platform service fee in the middle.
  • You write on WhatsApp and the person who handles direct bookings answers. No intermediary.
  • You see all six rooms together, with today's availability, and pick the one that suits you.
  • We confirm the exact total over WhatsApp before you book.
