Kukun Insurgentes Roma

I would say the property is perfect for a solo traveler. The property was central to everything and I walked pretty much my whole trip in Mexico City. I had a beautiful room that gave me a good view of the city just waking up seeing the greenery and the buildings was heavenly. There was even one day. I didn’t even leave the property. I also love the staff. As a person who understands Spanish and is still working on speaking the language, it was good to have people who speak both English and Spanish, and are willing to help you as you learn. So definitely a plus!

I don’t really have any complaints about the property. Just something that you should know since the property is central to everything you’re going to hear a lot of what’s happening on the street. Think of it like New York City and hearing the rustle and bustle of everything. So if you’re not a fan of that, that might bother you. But to me, I loved it because there was so much life surrounding me.

Está en un buen lugar, hay un súper cerca y muchos lugares donde comer o tomar un café. La habitación deja algo que desear. Para empezar, deberían aclarar que el aire acondicionado es un aire portátil, que si bien logra enfriar algo no hace el mismo trabajo que un equipo fijo. Además, esto hace que la ventana que está en la habitación donde está la cocina no se pueda cerrar, lo que hace que el ruido y el aroma de los puestos callejeros de comida que están en la esquina entren desde temprano (el sonido es tolerable ya que incluso incluyen tapones para oídos pero el aroma a aceite y garnachas nada lo tapa). La habitación en general está OK, aunque necesita mantenimiento. Además, algunas cosas no tienen sentido: del lado de la cama donde está el buró no hay interruptor para encender y apagar las luces de la cabecera; la zona donde está el escritorio no tiene conexión para conectar una laptop o algún otro equipo; la televisión está conectada con un cable parchado que va al aire acondicionado portátil que deja mucho que desear; la habitación tiene un armario improvisado para colgar ropa que está encima del buró de la cama, a menos que seas una persona muy alta es imposible usarlo; el baño tenía la manija suelta, no se podía cerrar la puerta; y los muebles que están en la cocina a manera de desayunador son la cosa más incómoda del mundo, no se a quien se le ocurrió que una mesa alta con periqueras era ideal para una habitación. Honestamente, no dan ganas de regresar.

How helpful was the staff. They’re incredible and lovely.

The property I’ve booked didn’t have a.c and as there were big windows the space was so hot. I asked if anything could be done ans the staff suggested me to move to another building. It was a perfect resolution. I really recommend Kukun.

Fernanda and her colleagues were wonderful. The only thing that was so so, was the lack of air conditioning in the flat. We were provided with mobile units that unfortunately didn't do a great job, so we endured some very warm days in the flat.

As a solo traveler I felt very safe here, loved that there was always staff at the entrance. The apartment I stayed in was nice and clean. The separate water dispenser in kitchen sink for drinking water was soooooo nice to have access to clean water at any time. It was always so easy to catch an uber within minutes from right outside the door. Loved that there were a few vegan restaurants/eateries within a block. Also a convenience store right next door. The traffic is loud at night but they provide ear plugs and sound machine. My only complaint was how hot my room was…unbearable to sleep for me. Even with fans provided I had such a hard time sleeping because it was hot and stuffy. The AC unit just blows sir but doesn’t cool. So if you need a cool space in order to sleep this is not it but if that doesn’t bother you then this is a great choice.

Very minimal and TOO NOISY because they put the windows facing one of the busiest streets in CDMX-- horrible design.

We had an almost two week-long stay here recently, and found the area to be great in terms of shopping, dining, and leisure options. The area was safe, staff were always friendly and accommodating. The only major downside is that the room we stayed in got SO HOT, especially at night. Despite there being two fans, something about the setup made it so hot... add to that, the fans need regular cleaning or they just end up blowing around soot. The bed and shower were comfortable, and the free washers and dryers were appreciated. The added kitchen area was cute.

The staff is really nice and friendly. The main issue is the noise. It’s really noisy so you don’t sleep well and you woke up during the night. Other than that the room is nice

The location is a fantastic jump off point to see Mexico City. La condesa and Roma have some of the best food in the city. You can walk to a number of parks and really immerse yourself in the amazing lifestyle of CDMX. We loved our room. It was higher up and with the floor to ceiling windows it really felt like I was sleeping in the trees. My nights felt extremely restful. Also, the staff were amazing, and the sunset from the rooftop is unforgettable. Book here, and then check out my resto reccos. The food and culture is the star of Mexico City.

Loved it all.
