It was my first visit to Buenos Aires. Recoleta neighborhood is really nice. You would be surrounded by real local people and places, not tourists. Lots of cafes, restaurants, supermarkets. I mostly walked around the city. The parks are amazing, The museum of fine arts is fantastic. The host was very accommodating to meet me out of the regular check in hours. The apartment is spotless. Everything worked, hot water comes on right away (it can be a problem sometimes), TV, internet, all kitchen appliances. I would recommend the host for your visits, and would stay with them again.
