Edgardo's place is perfect for most solo travelers. There are a couple of things to consider, which I will list here, but I do assure you that this apartment is a great value and worth the money.
The hot water in the shower/bath does not last for longer than 6–7 minutes. For me, a person who likes to take baths, this was an inconvenience, although it was the only major one. If you can get over this, everything else quite minor and you should book immediately.
Edgardo was away so communication wasn't easy at all times, however he did his best and I really felt that. For example, the refrigerator wasn't working and we needed to coordinate to get a new one. Edgardo asked for me to check a few things and ultimately he opted to get a new one for the apartment. I am grateful that he cared enough to do that, although the first week was indeed inconvenient for the morning especially.
Speaking of mornings, the listing at the time of this review claims to have breakfast. It does not. The laundry area is downstairs, and you might have your clothes moved or encounter an issue with the washing machine on occasion because it gets overwhelmed at times, leaving your clothes wetter than you would like before you put them into the dryer. Also, remember to empty out the water repository before you start the dryer!
The air conditioner is strong and very well-suited to this studio apartment. The TV works fine, and the wireless internet connection was consistent throughout the day. The balcony is nice too, although be warned that closing the door behind you will lock you out of the apartment and you will be stuck in quite a predicament.
Lastly, the bed. It's comfortable, albeit a bit creaky if you move a ton. No issues here either!
I gave a long and detailed description, certainly, but the overall gist is that the stay was great. It's a bit tricky dropping off the key in the apartment at the end since the only way to leave apartments in Buenos Aires is by unlocking the main door on the ground floor. If you don't have a friend or partner to help, you might find yourself using a rock or other obstruction to the doorway to get the job done. Again, not that big of a deal for most, but certainly something to note.
Edgardo, feel free to copy and paste this or print it out for other guests!
Thanks for reading (and yes the price is right on this one!).
(p.s.: You must visit La Bici and Malvon nearby! Both of these places made this single American's life so convenient when I wasn't in the mood to make my own coffee or lunch/dinner, and the staff are cordial. One more thing for fans of Palermo: Take the 34 toward Nicaragua (tell the bus driver "hasta Nicaragua") and enjoy the best coffee in Palermo at Lattente. Have a crepe at Crêpas. Enjoy a future heart attack at Donut Therapy... yes I pigged out during my stay... don't judge me!)
