Very very good communication right from the start. They organised a pick up from the airport , though it is perfectly safe and easy to organise transport when you reach BuenosAires airport.
The apartment for a couple was spacious, the 2 bathrooms a bonus, a his and her , also one did not have to go up or down if there was just one bathroom
Comfortable beds. We went at the end on November/December so weather was cool in evenings. Got warmer before we left and I can imagine the balcony being really hot in summer , if u like sitting in the sun.
Having a lift( elevator) a big bonus
Quiet building though like any big city it has traffic noise but we got used to it.
Lovely bread shop home made daily sourdough and cake and bkfast/ lunch cafe too. The servers are mostly very unfriendly and unhelpful but bread and cookies divine so we took it back to our balcony
The traffic light just outside the entrance of building means that one can grab a cab very easily and cabs are dirt cheap.. we did not use the public transport as we got stuck in the week of G20 summit bit I assume they are easy to get and even cheaper. Spanish is spoken everywhere and we were bad at it so had a little bit of difficulty in shops etc but in general the people in BA are really nice and helpful.
The area near the apartment is very very safe, lots of mini supermarkets and wine shops . If you turn right out of the building and turn right on first block very good woman’s shop and if u carry on bars and restaurants galore . If you turn left at building and left at the first block , 2 blocks down Italian restaurant on right Mattone, and on right a freshly cooked food shop which gives dirt cheap takeaways
Sara and Lara are superhosts and will answer immediately any queries We felt very welcome and felt safe that they would be there if we needed them
We have requested them to have an
Ironing board but there’s an iron and a small hairdryer
The washing machine on - 1 floor was very handy and easy to use and saved us traipsing to the laundry which was about 7 mins to the right on Dorrego road
All in all a very good area , felt safe walking at night , and probably cheaper to eat and find things than in Ricoletta.
Take the free town tours , they are reasonable .We also did a good food tour . Best experience was the closed door dining experience in Antiques shop with Jazz Music
Also went to Iguazú Falls for 2 days which was spectacular, and local airport is in the area so easy taxi ride.
