The apartment is in a wonderful location. Close to the metro, shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants. People were always walking around at all hours of the night but it was never noisy in the apartment. The amenities of the building (pool, gym) were also great. The guards were friendly as well. There’s laundry in the basement for $200 ARS per wash and dry. It’s large and can easily fit a full week’s worth of clothes. The Wi-Fi is strong and I never had issues on virtual calls while working. Linens and towels were also provided. The bed was comfy (more firm than soft) and had both soft and firm pillows. The blackout curtains were helpful.
The apartment could have been cleaner, specifically the floors. I’m not sure if this listing allows pets but there was a significant amount of short, black hairs on the couch and floors. I didn’t raise the issue with the host, though. The cleaning fee is minimal so I attribute it to that. The rest of the apartment was clean. One odd thing is that the balcony sliding door was painfully difficult to close. I probably just didn’t know how to do it properly. If you do stay there ask the host if there’s a trick to it as it was open when I initially met the host.
The kitchen doesn’t have the best pots and pans so if you’re planning on staying a while and cooking, you’ll likely want to purchase or bring your own stuff. I bought a small pan to use and bought a new sponge as the existing one wasn’t clean. Also bring a wine and/or bottle opener if you plan on having beverages at home.
Overall it’s a decent place and great for the value, especially in the summer when you can enjoy the pool. I’d likely return. Note that the pictures do make the space look slightly larger than it actually is but otherwise everything else is accurate. Communication from the hosts was great as well before I arrived. Thanks!
