We loved the apartment and its location. The Palermo Soho neighborhood is charming and well located. The apartment fully met out needs: there was nice natural light, the apartment was quiet, the bed was comfortable (if short for a person over 6 feet, though), there was ample space for cooking, the bathroom was nice with a good shower, the gym was nicely appointed and we were very happy to have a laundry room. Be prepared with the necessary coins if you want to do any laundry, though. We went to several stores, banks and change places trying to get the 1 and 2 peso coins needed to operate the machines.

Savas was out of town, but his colleague Luciana was very responsive and very helpful. Although we didn’t meet in person, we spoke on the phone and she immediately answered the few e-mails we sent. She also arranged the taxi that arrived punctually at 6 AM to take us to the airport for our international flight.

The down sides were minor. The sliding glass door on the balcony didn’t lock and we were told that fixing it would require replacing the glass panels. With the aid of a screwdriver that we bought at the local hardware store, we adjusted a few screws on the strike plate and easily fixed the door. I would also have liked a couple more wine glasses and/or glass glasses. The apartment came with only one wineglass and one glass, in addition to coffee mugs and plastic glasses.

In sum, the apartment was great and we would heartily recommend it to anyone visiting Buenos Aires.
