This sweet little studio is perfect for an individual or couple. There's a comfy bed with a TV, a kitchen with a 2-burner stove top, mini fridge and microwave. The bed being under the window in a first floor apartment means you can hear and see the main street but it's not loud and didn't affect my sleep or anything like that. The bathroom was clean and modern looking. It's close (walkable) to some cute parks, museums, and markets and a lot of tourist attractions are a short cab away. If you're someone who likes going out and bars, just know that this neighborhood is more fancy residential. The host was super commmunicative and accomodating. There are a couple small things (no toilet paper or soap on arrival, one side lamp not working, broken chair) that made me knock a star off but I wish we could give half stars because this is about a 4.5 for me.
A couple things to know about Buenos Aires in general that really helped me:
- Use Cabify if possible, Uber can be difficult as it's not totally legal (at least that's what I understand).
- There are two exchange rates. There's one if you're converting cash at a cueva or wiring money to yourself via Western Union. This is called the blue rate. It was about double the exchange rate for USD, so if possible do this. Withdrawing money from the ATM will not get you the blue rate in most cases.
