I spent two months at Fraga, while doing research in Buenos Aires. I’m *from* Buenos Aires, but have been living in the US for a while, so I knew that the location was great even before arriving. It’s very close to the subway (that takes you downtown in 20 minutes) and walking distance from Palermo, which is one of the hip neighborhoods in Buenos Aires. It’s also very central in the city, so you can go anywhere very easily. It’s also a pretty safe neighborhood (if you know the area), which is key in BA.
The apartment is great. It has a big living room and a big bedroom with a queen size bed (a very comfortable one!). The bathroom is also very spacious (though, being a relatively old building, the water pressure is not that great...; I guess that’s the price for big rooms!). There is also a small patio, which is very nice (I was there during the winter so I didn’t use it a lot, but it’s probably a great spot for breakfast or aperitivo in the summer).
Astrid was a great host (even if we didn’t get a chance to meet in person!). Lídia is the person who helps her with the apartment and comes and cleans once a fortnight. She is great and very trustworthy.
In sum, a great place (and great value!).
