La Casa De Syl was great! It's in the Abasto neighborhood and even though it's only a block back from Corrientes (which is also VERY handy!) it is set back in the building so it is quiet. It has a great patio to hang out on during siesta time and it's a small apartment building (only two storeys) so you don't feel like you're swaying in the sky. All the amenities worked fine and the bed is comfortable. It is near to the cool neighborhoods without having to deal with being in them. There are supermarkets nearby, a great cheese and meats store (Casa de Queso on Corrientes) and a great local bar (Sanata's). If you're a cyclist the ciclovia is only a few blocks away on Billinghurst and if you're using Xoom to get a good US-AR exchange rate- the office is just down the road on Boulogne (don't go the office on Corrientes).
