On my arrival in Buenos Aires, I was received by Savas's assistant Luciana, who kindly showed me everything, gave me a few tips for my stay and introduced me to Fernando the porter/superintendant. The apartment was stylish, nicely furnished and spotlessly clean. The building was also modern, clean and secure, and contained a small gym and a swimming pool, both of which I used during my stay. It was in a very nice, safe location in Palermo, not in the middle of things, but within a very short walking distance of bars, restaurants and shops.

Unfortunately, my stay was very much marred by late night noise from other people in the building with two apartments causing particular disturbance. Although Savas and Luciana tried their best to help, the situation remained out of hand for the second half of my stay. However, I have been told that action is being taken against one particular offender and hopefully the rest will take note. Ask Savas for the latest update!

Despite these problems, I loved Buenos Aires. It's a fantastic city. I am already plotting my return.
