I will start by saying that the location is amazing. It is basically 5 blocks from everything; stores (half a block from the best ice cream around), parks (Botanical garden and Eco Park), major roads to grab a taxi, the subway system. The apartment is also very spacious with the added loft space above the main floor.
The only issues, and there are several, were firstly that the bed in the main bedroom (a double, not Queen as stated) was not good. In fact it was terrible. This has actually been mentioned in others reviews too. The mattress is old and misshapen and its become so compacted where others have slept that its only about 3 inches thick in those spots. Our sleep was so terrible in that main bed (my wife woke up with serious neck pain every morning after we had slept there) that my wife and I actually slept on the 2 single childrens beds in the loft. Sleeping in separate single beds on your supposedly romantic vacation is beyond dissapointing, especially with how much we had paid for this Airbnb. Secondly, again as stated in other reviews, are the pigeons who start to coo early in the morning (roughly 6-7am) and can wake some light sleepers up. These same pigeons also make the courtyard basically unusable since they defecate all over the patio. Not just the floor either, the furniture, the walls, everywhere. Thridly, The heating and cooling unit in the main living space worked on and off. We had to continually reach over the loft bannister to acess the unit high up on the wall and unplug and plug it back in to get it working again. Fourth and finally, some guests may find the bathroom shower on the small side and it may not work for everyone. As we had a longer stay (around a month) at this airbnb, the fact that the shower was uncomfortable meant we basically used our family's shower's whenever we could. Agian, we spent a lot of money to be staying here and when you can't shower comfortably it feels like you're not getting your money's worth.
The only issue that is hard to address is the size or the shower. But again, if you are not staying too long here, that may be less of an issue for you. I truly hope the owner listens to this feedback, most of these issue have been mantioned before and yet it seems, as of our stay, nothing has been done to correct them. Considering the price that we and other guests have paid to stay here, I believe there should be some funds directed towards mantaining this Airbnb.
The last issue I'll state here as an honorable mention (mostly noticed by my wife) was the quality and condition of the furniture in the unit as well. All of this just speaks to the lack of care and respect that this unit seems to be receiving in general.
I would love to give this Airbnb a higher rating, but I believe most peops have given this place such a high review based mostly on the location and architecture/building layout, as I first mentioned. These features, however, are 2 of the only facets of this airbnb that are NOT within the control or care of the owner. The location is awesome, but I'm sure there are other places to stay in this area. And you will be impressed by architecture evereywhere you go in Buenos Aires. We are not going to give the owner a pass on the other issues that ARE within their control and should be taken care of.
