I had a really good time here! Magalenha was responsive to me but I feel like I had a hard time because I couldn’t understand everything, which has inspired me to sign up for Spanish lessons :) I spent my first few days in Buenos Aires here and am glad to have had the experience.
There is no AC in the room, only a fan that is plugged into the wall. If you sleep with the windows open at night to cool the room down there will be mosquitos. I can sleep when it’s that warm but just to inform if that matters to you. There is no door between the room and the kitchen so you can hear everything. I wouldn’t recommend if you are extremely private.
I loved staying there, hanging out on the balcony at nighttime, and doing my best to converse in Spanish. I’m also in love with her dog Sandro :) we drank some mate together and she helped me with recommendations for travel and with some Spanish. She also provided coffee and toast in the mornings! Close to Plaza Dorrego! Great stay!
