The apartment was lovely in a fabulous location.We enjoyed being able to self cater,good small shops in neighbourhood and eating and drinking on the balcony. The air con was a welcome relief from the hot sweltering heat outside.We didn't arrive until after 11pm but this was no problem, we were welcomed by a smily Jose.We did not meet Maria but she telephoned a couple of times to check on our needs,her English was excellent and she was very friendly. If you can a Sunday stay is a must because of the local markets, it is like being at a carnival. Also check out Biking Buenos Airies on the corner of Peru and Carlos.We really enjoyed our stay at Maria's apartment,forgot to mention how peaceful it was.
