Fernando's place was exactly as advertised, in fact a little bit better and bigger and it had everything in the kitchen that anyone might need, including a corkscrew! I was very happy :)
The area was lovely, felt really local, off the beaten track, with great shops, cafes and restaurants nearby. Good transport links if you don't mind walking a few blocks. I came to Buenos Aires for tango and it was central and not too far from the main places, all in all I LOVED the apartment and its location. I would definitely come back.
Communicating with Fernando was easy and smooth once I was at the apartment, it was slightly slow making the arrival arrangements, but in the end I was extremely happy. Andres, who manages the property when Fernando isn't there was very helpful and pleasant and even though he didn't speak English, I was made to feel welcome. All in all, a great experience, would recommend!
