Firstly, a massive thank you to Ricardo and his excellent organisational skills and for going above and beyond to meet me at the apartment very early in the morning after I flew in from London. Equally, when my flight back to the UK was delayed significantly he was super fast to help re-organise a taxi and let me stay longer in the apartment, which was very much appreciated.
The apartment is fab, it looks exactly like the pictures. The kitchen is great, with a fast electric hob (which isn't always the case in BsAs!), oven and all the utensils that you'd need. Big bonus is that there are things in the cupboards i.e. coffee, maté , spices etc which is such a benefit when you aren't eating out for every meal. And a packet of welcome galletitos!
Bathroom was super clean with a good shower (and again equipped with shampoo, shower gel, towels and hairdryer if you need it).
The apartment was also super quiet - if you've stayed in BsAs before, you'll know that sometimes you end up in apartments build round central stairwells where you can hear every single person that lives there entering/exiting all night - not the case in Ricardo and Andrea's apartment.
It's an easy walk into the main areas of Palermo / Recoleta and it's just a few mins walk to Scalabrini Ortiz for subte and larger supermarkets.
There are also loads of books, if you want to have a read whilst having coffee on the balcony. And wifi is fast if you need to work.
Muchas gracias Ricardo por todo tu ayuda! Feliz año!
