I originally booked for 1 week at Agustin's house and I ended up staying for 3. You'll feel so welcome with Agustin and the Cavilliotti family that it will be just like home.

The house itself is almost a tourist attraction in its own right. An old and sprawling home, spread over 3 floors, is unlike anything I have seen before. On the top level is a beautiful terrace to relax with a beer on a warm night. As you'll see from the pictures, it has a lot of character. The house is also very convenient for public transport. The subway station is just around the corner.

The room is clean and has everything you need. Being on a floor entirely of it's own it is also very private. The private bathroom is immediately next door so you don't need to walk through the house to get between the bedroom and the bathroom.

If, like me, you're the kind of traveller who feels that the best way to experience a place is with local people, then this house is perfect. The Cavilliotti's have been in Buenos Aires a long time and will help you have an authentic experience of Buenos Aires.

Palermo is one of the nicer and more modern areas of Buenos Aires. Relatively safe to walk the streets at night, but with no shortage of shopping, restaurants and nightlife.

Highly recommended. Why stay in an apartment or a hotel or a hostel when you can have an authentic experience of Buenos Aires like this?
