We never met our host, however the porter, Guillermo was very nice and very welcoming! The apartment was almost like we were expecting although the pictures on this profile do not do the apartment justice. The artwork was very eccentric and and eclectic and very much in your face, which wasn't to our personal taste. There are things that need to be updating, e.g. glassware and crockery! The neighbourhood is brilliant, the central location (Casa rosada 200m away) but we especially loved the Sunday market right outside the apartment.
