Marcelo is a friendly and attentive host. He took the time to give a tour of the neighborhood and its eateries, and he even facilitated the exchange of dollars into pesos, and important step for someone just arriving in country.
The apartment is in a luxury building in a quite neighborhood of Palermo with multiple restaurants and grocery stores nearby. There is a nice fitness center and both an indoor and outdoor pool for guests to enjoy. There is also 24 hour security guard service and a laundry room in the building.
The room itself is small but adequate. You are paying mostly for the nice neighborhood and the building's amenities of a luxury building.
Since the room is one floor above the ground floor and there is a shady area under the window where various people love to hang out, it can get somewhat noisy at times. There was also strange knocking periodically in the bedroom at night. Whether it was an unruly neighbor or a poltergeist is unknown to me, but it was there.
