We stayed a few nights in the mint room at the same property and loved it so much we extended our stay and moved to this room. The house (Palacio to be more exact) is an amazing and evocative place to stay and Alex and Lina are spectacular hosts, with great tips for the city and also South America as a whole as they’ve been on many adventures in other countries. The courtyard is a great spot to relax and you can walk to the heart of San Telmo in about 5-10mins or Centro in 20mins, or get the subway and it’s a couple of stops. There’s a few nice cafes in the surrounding streets and a shop and a good bakery about 100m away. We stayed in a design hostel in Palermo a couple of nights when we got to BA and staying here with Alex and Lina was a million times better！
