We had a great time on our vacation and the 6 of us are sure it was due to the great welcome we received from the host family. The apartment is basically what it looks like in the pictures, with a few changes in furniture that actually were improvements . The neighborhood is very safe and well located. There are some wonderful restaurants nearby and we were able to walk to Recoleta or Palermo Hollywood (and even Palermo viejo on one afternoon)! The family was very helpful and available, although we stayed for Christmas and New year's and the city is really quiet during the holidays; but Magdalena and her family gave us the tips we needed and everything went great. We recommend the apartment and are sure going to stay there again when we go to Buenos Aires one next time!
