We are a California couple, in our 50s, who love walking and seeing the areas we visit. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in BA! Staying here was treat. (We stayed here for a week). 1st- Andrea is such a responsive and informative host. She went out of her way to ensure our comfort.. from information about BA, a well stocked apartment, a SUBE card (for public transport), and some consumable goodies. Andrea's charming family were involved in welcoming us to the apartment and letting us know about things we wanted to do. (Bicycling to the port area on the bike paths..) Andrea arranged for a reliable, honest driver to pick us up and take us to the airport. What a comfort it was to see our name held by a driver when we arrived! 2nd- The VIEW and patio! The apartment is on the 14th floor, has floor to ceiling windows, and a large patio with table. We ate meals and had our own wine tastings on the patio. The only downside to the view...you hate to leave it to go eat anywhere else! 3rd- Security. The apartment has 24/7 security personnel who buzz you in and out....very secure and comforting. 4th-We don't like taking taxis...the apartment is convenient to the subway and buses for public transportation. But... since the apartment is on a well known Palermo Hollywood street...lots of taxis are available. 5th- The area. The apartment is on Fitz Roy street in Palermo Hollywood. There are so many good and popular restaurants around the area. Palermo Soho (lots of restaurants/cafes too) is also a very close walk. For U.S. visitors- dinner does not really begin until after 8:30! There are alot of "media dia" lunch deals. We took advantage of these (usually until about 4 pm) for early and very reasonable dinners. Then we enjoyed wine, bread and cheese on the balcony...(did I mention the amazing VIEW!). Little grocery stores are located close to the apartment. At first...the differences between U.S. grocery availability and these little stores is an eye opener. Then one comes to realize they have everything you need...including fresh baked bread and inexpensive (but great) Mendoza wines. 6th- The apartment itself is furnished with everything you need. There are air conditioners for both bottom and top floor. The bottom floor has a well furnished kitchen with a tall refrigerator, automated coffee maker, and electric water pot. There is a couch, flat screen TV (hardly used by us....the view!), and lots of helpful information from Andrea and previous guests. The second floor (up a spiral staircase) has a king sized bed, bathroom (with a bathtub!), place for clothes, clock, and a view! Lastly..We felt like we walked all over BA- San Telmo, La Boca, downtown, Recoleta, Palermo, Palermo Soho and Palermo Hollywood. We did not see anywhere else we would rather have stayed and cannot recommend Andrea enough! Inactive people might have difficulty with the sidewalks..but for people who like to walk-it is perfect! Thanks...
