The apartment is as presented and was very comfortable with air conditioning both upstairs and downstairs. Building is subject to 24/7 security with strong processes in place to ensure safety. The gym on the 31st floor looked good (we didn’t have time to use it) and provides amazing views.
Ralf and his team were extremely helpful from the time of our initial enquiry until the time of departure. They provided a lot of useful information and assistance prior to arrival. They were waiting at the apartment for our arrival and provided a comprehensive briefing on the features of the apartment and how to use all items such as the motorized blinds, stove, air conditioning etc. They provided a beautiful bowl of fruit which we loved, along with some coffee for the filter coffee machine. The kitchen includes a reasonable range of kitchen tools, however we ate out each night.
A comprehensive local guide for shopping, dining etc. is provided which was very helpful. Also provided was a local public transport card (you have to load it with credit at the station) and a comprehensive explanation for loading credit and how to use the system which was easy. We made use of the card.
The bedding was comfortable and the shower hot. We slept well throughout as you cannot hear street noise. The apartment is non smoking and did not smell of cigarette smoke. There is a small balcony which has a chair, table and ashtray for those with that habit.
The only caveat is for those who might have trouble with stairs. The stairs to the bedroom/bathroom has a hand rail on one side only and it does not extend the full length of the stairs - the upper part of the stairs has no handrail, but you have a wall on both sides. We didn’t carry our suitcases upstairs for that reason.
The local area felt quite safe to move around and we walked to several restaurants and bars as well as using the local subway for transportation. We went to the restaurant Don Julie on the recommendation of Ralf and loved it.
We recommend using the subway for longer journeys (e.g. from apartment to Teatro Colon) as we found it far quicker than battling the local traffic. We used an Uber for a transfer to Teatro Colon and the traffic was abysmal - that’s Buenos Aires). Uber seemed fine to use and economical.
Communication was excellent throughout (emails and on site) with clear explanations. They arranged several transfers for us which was a great assistance. We flew to Iguassu for one day, with the transfer arranged for 4.00am. That transfer and two others were on time and drivers were fully briefed.
We wholeheartedly recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
