Ruy and his mother were gracious hosts. On arrival day there were baked treats. Ruy was attentive and quick to communicate. The apartment is centrally located for good access to a variety of sites and venues. It is super safe and super good value. If you want to party with the hip crowd, though, Palermo may be (for some) far and/or tiring to get to by subway or traffic jam. The apartment was clean and, thankfully, very quiet for being in the center of such a large city. We enjoyed the terrace at all times of the day and night, and under different weather conditions. Solitary doves come perch on the balcony and flocks of birds fly on the horizon. There are plants on the terrace for a sense of the seasons. There is a view of the famous Palacio Barolo from the apartment. Two nights per week, its dome is lit and its lighthouse operates. On those nights you can turn off all the lights in the apartment to observe the light show while sipping Mendoza wine. There is also a view of the Eva Peron mural. We happened to be at the apartment on the 60th anniversary of Eva's death and the mural was lit with gyrating lights in the color of the Argentinian flag. A supermarket is next door. The laundry lady and her husband are very kind. She loves contemporary art because her son is a painter who exhibits at some good galleries. San Telmo is a brisk 15 minute walk from the apartment. We walked there for breakfasts, lunches and clubs. There is a selection of restaurants on the street; one that serves grilled Patagonian lamb and also a Cuban dance club. Overall, 5 stars and I would stay here again.
