I spent six days at Irina's B&B and had a fantastic experience. Almagro is the best kept secret in Buenos Aires! The house is recently renovated, nicely appointed and immaculate. Bright and airy. There were four other guests at the house, and they shared many tips and insights with me about the city, what to see, how to get around, where to buy a renewable subway pass (hint: not in the subway station). The house is the quietest place I have stayed in my three month travels in South America - but only steps from the subway, buses, fabulous restaurants and places to shop. I would definitely stay here again, and recommend Irina's house to anyone who wants a beautiful, safe, affordable place to stay in Buenos Aires!
