The apartment is clean and new, with a very good bathroom, guest toilet and kitchen. There is adequate wardrobe space in the bedroom and the bed is very comfortable. There is a safe in the wardrobe. We didn't really use the outdoor space on the roof terrace as it was unseasonably cold for most of the month that we were in Buenos Aires but the views are fantastic and the facilities good (though the pool isn't huge). There is very helpful security downstairs.

The apartment has a nice balcony, overlooking the main road. Thankfully the windows block out most of the street noise.

For Buenos Aires, the apartment had a strong and consistent internet connection. Not super fast but certainly good enough to be able to send emails, attachments and use social media without any major problem. At times it struggled with streaming AV content, and the connection would drop.

What disappointed us was the absence of a sofa in the living room, instead there is a second bed, but it really isn't comfortable to use on a daily basis and the only other place to sit was the table. For us, it was something of a problem as we spent a lot of time in the apartment, and the living room bed just wasn't somewhere you could sit for long. Useful as it could be, if you wanted to have four people in the apartment, we do think a proper sofa or sofa bed would make the apartment a LOT more comfortable.

What was beyond the owner's control but others should be aware of this is that the next door building seems to host regular very noisy and late (ending between 0400 and 0600) parties. It happened three times in the month that we were there - Friday or Saturday nights. The noise was so bad, the windows did little to keep it out and it was vibrating through the apartment and we, and most of the neighbours, could get no sleep. Also, though this we assume will finish soon, throughout the month that we were there work was being done on the shop two floors below. Every weekday morning from 0800, we heard drilling and hammering through until about 1300. All of this was beyond the owner's control, and he was very apologetic.

Otherwise the apartment is well located. It is about a 20 minute walk into the centre of Palermo Hollywood and there is a good bus service downtown. A taxi downtown will cost about AR$100. Be aware though that the apartment isn't central, it is in a residential neighbourhood of the city. There are good fishmongers (a rarity in Buenos Aires), bakers and greengrocers nearby. There's a small Carrefour downstairs and bigger supermarkets within 10 minutes walk. There are some good local restaurants, though the better places are perhaps towards Palermo Hollywood or Belgrano, so about 15-25 minutes walk away.
