I just came back to the USA after a lovely two-week stay in Buenos Aires. Romi & Jan's apartment was exactly as advertised. I found it perfect for the 3 of us (my brother and my nephew). The location couldn't be better. We walked a lot in a beautiful and safe area (Recoleta is just a couple blocks away!). We used public transportation to and from Av. Libertador and Av. Callao. There are lots of buses (colectivos, as they're locally known)! We also used radio taxis and other driver companies, which picked us up in no time at all. The apartment is right next to Patio Bullrich, which is one of the fanciest malls in the city. It's too expensive to buy anything there or even eat or drink coffee, but nice to have next-door, anyway. If you're sensitive to sound, you should know that there are times in which the apartment can be quite noisy from the neighbors using the elevator and chatting on the ground floor, where the apartment is located. However, it's totally quiet at night. I'm a light sleeper, and I found the main bedroom super quiet. We loved the Zen patio and the beautiful kumquat tree, and we had breakfast every morning on the roofed patio, which has a dining table and comfy chairs. Hugo, the building super, was extremely helpful and always greeted us with a smile on his face. Romi offered assistance with currency exchange and any other questions we had. If you enter Buenos Aires via Ezeiza, I recommend walking to the Taxi Ezeiza Oficial counter to get your ride to the city. I hadn't planned on it beforehand, but I will next time. Check in and check out was easy, and the hosts were flexible enough to cater to our needs regarding both. I recommend this apartment wholeheartedly. I can't wait to stay there soon again. Thank you, Romi & Jan!
