What can you say about Gustavo (Gus) except that he is simply the best host in the history of hosts. There really should be a class of host above “Superhost” for people like Gus.
I lived in one of Gus’s units in Palermo Soho for almost three months. Before I even arrived, Gus provided with me with so much quality information and made me feel right at home. Over the course of my stay, I think Gus probably did me more than 10 favours that go well outside what you would except of even an Air BnB Superhost to do. He such a sweet, kind and wonderful person. You would be crazy not to rent one of the places that he hosts on Air BnB.
The unit looks exactly like it does in the pictures. Blackout curtains are great if you want to sleep in. It’s a great size and gets tons of light in the day. I was working remotely while there and the glass dining table served as my office. The TV is a brand new LED smart TV with a built-in Chromecast. The stove top does not get particularly hot, but you probably aren’t visiting BA to practice your cooking skills. There is a lovely lady who comes and cleans up your apartment every week. She is very nice, polite and does a very good job in such a short amount of time. The couch is not comfy, but I am told that this is common in BA. Also, do you really want to spend that much time on the couch? Besides, the queen-sized bed is very comfortable and makes for an excellent sleep. Shower has great water pressure too.
When I go back to BA, I would not stay at any place unless Gus is the host. He is the best host I have ever had, and I very much doubt I will ever find another host like him.
Thanks again for everything, Gus. Especially helping me with the end of trip fiasco at the airport that I caused…and you helped fix 😊
