We had a great 7 day stay at Laura's apartment. The location in Recoleta worked great for us. Yes it's on a high traffic street (nearly every street in Recoleta is), but we enjoyed watching the activity from the balcony and still slept soundly at night. Especially true as we were there for the World Cup semi and final victories by Argentina and were 1 block away from a major viewing site, so we got in on the pandemonium ourselves. Although Laura is a remote host, she was very responsive and helpful through our stay. In fact the entire neighborhood was friendly and helpful, for example a stranger on the street helping us communicate with a taxi driver or find the right bus stop. Highly recommended.
