We stayed in Rocio & Nicolas’ place in BA for eight nights. It was a great experience! Our flight arrived in BA very early in the morning, before the normal check-in time, but they were very accommodating and met us to stow our luggage and offer us maps so we could start exploring the city while the previous residents checked out and the flat was cleaned. Throughout our stay, Rocio & Nicolas were easily accessible by iMessage or e-mail and offered great advice on what to see and where to eat. The building porter/super, Fausto, lives in the building and is always around to help, like when we had difficulties operating the building washing machines.

The flat itself has everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay, including a full kitchen, with nice touches, like a Nespresso machine. We often made our own breakfast before heading out on the town and stocked up on Nespresso pods at the nearby Alto Palermo shopping center. Having a view of the park across the street is great, but it is across a very noisy street, which you’ll always hear in the living room / kitchen. But don’t worry about sleeping as the bedroom does not face the street side and its windows have shutters, so you can block out noise and light when you want to sleep in. The bathroom is small, but comparable to others we experienced in Argentina. The Bulnes subway stop is a 10-minute walk and there are many bus lines that stop on the street in front of the building. Taxis are also easy to catch, so the location has very good transportation options.

For the price, you’d be hard pressed to find a better flat in a better location in BA. We recommend it and would stay again. Thanks Nicolas and Rocio!
