Ernesto was great, as was his place. It is close to the Obelisk, so I was able to both participate and get away from the World Cup festivities! Close to Subways and busses, Easy walk to Florida and Lavale streets (walking malls) pull out bed was remarkably comfortable, and I usually have back problems. not a place for cooking, but handy kitchenette for sandwiches or coffee. I like to eat local on vacation, so it was no problem. I always felt safe. I'd stay at Ernesto's again when I vacation there.
