This apartment is as gorgeous as it looks in the pictures. Nicolas's sister Nina met us there and showed us around very efficiently. This was our first time in Buenos Aires, and staying in this historic apartment was a very memorable experience--original floors, big sun-filled living room, great view... Nicolas's art and decorations were also perfect, making for a very special time. The neighborhood, though, had pros and cons. Pros: close to historic destinations and most importantly, the awesome BA metro station is literally outside the front door, making the whole city accessible. Cons: not the most enjoyable neighborhood to hang out in. We moved to Palermo after staying here in Congreso and had a totally different impression of the city. I'm glad we had both perspectives, though, and staying in this apartment was an amazing experience, no matter what the neighborhood.
