Marisu and Lucas were tremendous hosts....Lucas was who handled majority of the communication which worked our perfectly! His English in on par so we were able to communicate via email and Whatsapp seamlessly.
Lucas was able to accommodate an early arrival for an additional fee which worked out perfectly! The apartment is on a residential side street in the Recoleta area. It is walking distance to many places....nothing like roaming a city in a new country to explore all.
The apartment was quaint and exactly as pictured....an old world charm building with an elevator which is neat. The place was a perfect stay for my significant other and I - there is 2 bedrooms (very comfortable), a kitchen with most essentials you need (especially, if you want to cook meals) which was very helpful, there is a washer machine with a drying rack, bathroom was clean, with a shower and tub - bath towels readily available and the living room, dining area were as comfy as if you were in your own home.
There is wifi in the apartment which Lucas was so clever to put up on a chalkboard painted door in the kitchen - it was ingenious!
The area is quiet at night and lively in the morning due to some construction being done in the area but overall, peaceful and a comfortable stay.
Within the area, there is the Recoleta Mall which has a currency exchange which was helpful (right by the famous Recoleta cemetery) with restaurants in the area to eat, drink and be merry.
Buenos Aires is a walking city but if you wanted to get around, the yellow/black Radio Taxi are easily hail-able just like NYC yellow taxi's. The cab ride from the EZE airport was approx. 35min or so - we just booked when we arrived through Tienda Leon (cost around 65 USD).
Overall, the apartment is picture perfect for a wonderful and extremely comfortable stay.
