Flor and her husband were wonderful hosts. They were super friendly and made me feel instantly welcome. Any time I had a question during my stay they would almost immediately reply to my emails with detailed answers, and we're kind enough to provide me with a terrific list of local restaurants to try.

The map they provided was perfect to help me navigate the city on my own, and the apartment is in a great central location to make it easy to explore all the varying neighbourhoods by foot. Flor also provides a Metro card if you want to take the subway instead - you just have to top it up with money.

The apartment is just how it looks in the pictures and is clean and comfortable. There was water and juice in the fridge, which was terrific, and toiletries in the bathroom. Having access to Netflix through Apple TV is also a terrific bonus, as all the cable channels are dubbed into Spanish.

The only negative was that the apartment can be a little noisy on weekends or Thursday nights with people playing music or yelling in the early hours of the morning. But given the way the buildings are designed across Buenos Aires (all crammed next to each other), I'd imagine this would be a problem experienced everywhere. In fact, some neighbourhoods would probably be worse as, at least, the apartment is in a relatively quiet street.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, felt completely safe the entire time and would definitely recommend the apartment to others.
