Summary: Our first time visiting Mexico City and it couldn’t have been a better experience. The location, comfort and beauty of this historical property are outstanding. Easy, safe and convenient to access everything in the historic district on foot, and Uber rides to sites further out are plentiful and inexpensive. Petra is a wealth of knowledge and superb host. Highly recommend her walking tour your first day to get the “lay of land.” Informative, fun and will save you a lot of time trying to figure things out on your own. We also took the cooking class (fantastic), and day trips to Puebla and Teotihuacan - exceptional. Highly recommend this property and all that goes with it!

Summary: Absolutely beautiful apartment! Well located for cultural and tourist sites and events. Safest neighborhood in Mexico City. Secure building. Only negative is that water pressure in old building was weak sometimes in 2 of 3 bathrooms. The owner, Petra, is a gem and does everything to make the experience perfect: purified water in jugs and kitchen sink, bed warmers, space heaters, beautiful artwork, good food for breakfast, other foods available for minimal cost, and a link to wonderful driver and guides. Example: she set up a mescal tasting IN the apartment with a delightful man, then brought her cook in to make food so we wouldn’t be drinking alcohol on empty stomachs.

Summary: The penthouse is beautiful and views were stunning! Can literally see Bellas Artes from balcony. Next door to the historic home of ex President Santana. In the middle of everything you can need. Bathrooms were perfect and for a family of 4, it was so big that there were no arguments about bathrooms or space. Fresh delicious bread was delivered daily. I broke my ankle at a karaoke bar, and Petra did everything in her ability to help us during the September 15 celebration and day after parade. She went above and beyond a host and made us feel taken care of. We will definitely be back once I heal and finish our vacation.

Summary: From the moment we booked this apartment, it was the best experience we've ever had with a VRBO property! The owner, Petra Fischer, is a renowned documentarian, having produced many documentaries on Mexico. She concentrates on making her guests' time in Mexico City the best it could ever be. First of all, the apartment is lovely, as you can see from the photos. Our group occupied 3 of the 4 available bedrooms. Our view was of the Opera House - stunning with the sun setting behind it. Petra has designed - exclusively for her guests - private guided and non-guided tours. Guests can choose among 23 tours and 7 activities, ranging from an orientation walk through the historic center to the Frida Kahlo circuit to the famous pyramids to massages to private dinners in the apartment. Every one we chose was first-class! Additionally, Petra prepared a list of 18 of her most recommended restaurants in the area, which included which meals they serve (B, L, D), type of food, ambience, phone number and address. Every restaurant we chose was just as described. I can't imagine being a first-time or multi-time visitor to Mexico City and not staying "with" Petra.

Summary: Stayed for a few days during the Epiphany of the Lord. Went to the Basilica, Xochimilco and Chapultepec for a Mexico ballet presentation. Everything was amazing. The stay at the suites was pleasant and the owner Petra surprised us with a rosca de Reyes. That was so sweet. Also arrange transportation for us and was available at all times if needed.

Summary: I cannot say enough about this wonderful apartment and about Petra, the most extraordinary host! First the apartment... we visited Mexico City as a family with our adult children. We loved the large, sun-lit living room and dining room with plenty of space for everyone to relax and eat together. Great views of the city out the floor-to-ceiling windows. Large, beautifully decorated bedrooms with super-comfortable beds and plenty of bathrooms. And we loved being in the center of the city with easy walking to the Zocalo, markets, museums, murals, and parks. And now about the amazing Petra... the best VRBO host I've ever encountered. Communication ahead of the trip was super-responsive. We arrived on Christmas Eve when restaurants were closed so she offered to order for us and have the food waiting in the fridge when we arrived. She arranged airport transportation and guided a tour for us to the pyramids, complete with delicious quesadillas in the market. She offered advice on places to see and made us feel so welcome and so cared-for with lots of extras: breakfast pastries, yummy jam, lots of guidebooks (for one of which she is a contributing author), and more. We loved ringing in New Years Eve 20024 together with her! Highly, highly, highly recommend! You cannot go wrong with this booking!
