Having just spent 10 days in Buenos Aires in Martin's apartment, it is a perfect base for exploring Buenos Aires and felt like home, whilst its location isn't in the heart of the cool hip trendy cafe scene of Palermo its in the heart of the non tourist area which is quite good. A leisurely 30min walk through various parks and the streets of Palermo and you are at your favourite modern western influenced cafes.

The apartment is exactly as the images describe, the main area is quite large and provides quite a lot of light. The sleeping area upstairs is comfortable and certainly not pokey, my only criticism of the bed was the mattress, just a little to hard for me, but you cant appease everyone's tastes or comforts, it wasn't an issue sleeping that's for sure after spending all day out and about.

The kitchen is modest, had everything I needed, even though I didn't cook much, if you needed to its all there.

The bathroom is small and the way the door opens its a tight squeeze, but we don't live in the bathroom right? it was clean and the shower had great water pressure (a must).

Overall the apartment was spotless, clean sheets, no dust and modern, if I was Martin I might move the TV down from the bedroom, but that's it.

Martin also gave many recommendations for restaurants and things to do, there were two restaurants I walked to only to find they didn't exist now, so maybe just an update, but again not a big issue as there is so much in the area, he had so many recommendations to fill two weeks in BA.

There are two little supermarkets within 2min walk, I only went to one and they had fresh fruit and veg daily along with other essential daily items.

Martin himself was extremely helpful throughout my stay, even though we didn't meet his Girlfriend and brother showed me the apartment, this was my first Airbnb experience and it was great, Martin was available on email whenever I needed, gave me assistance with catching public transport to the airport and even has a driver available if you are traveling back to the main BA Airport.

I would recommend Martin and his apartment to anyone wanting to stay in BA, it may not be close to the cooler soho area of Palermo but that can also be a good thing as it forces you to see more of the city in between.
