Thanks Gonzalo!
If you are on the fence or a bit timid about where to stay in Buenos Aires, especially if you are in the beginning of your trip , do not hesitate to choose this stay.
This ended up being my favorite stay of my trip to Buenos Aires for too many reasons to count. The apartment is clean and comfortable, well designed with a modern feel, and perfect for a solo traveler even if you have work to do.
Gonzalo is the perfect host and now, friend. He was happy to help with any questions I had ( where to buy groceries, out to eat, anything I was looking for), gave me free reign of the kitchen and also gives you space if you want it. The apartment is located in Almagro which is just outside of the major tourist areas but comes with easy access to bus lines and subway so everything is just 15 minutes away. Nearby are local grocery stores, great coffee, shops, and restaurants with a much more local feel. As well as great park nearby (Park Centenario).
