The apartment was exactly as described. We had a magical Sunday evening on the balcony sipping wine and watching the tango dancers on the plaza below. We were traveling with our kindergarten age child, and we found the apartment (& the city) to be family friendly. The apartment was well appointed, and very clean. We were thankful to have bread, milk and bottled water in the fridge when we arrived, but also enjoyed shopping at the local market just a block away. Excellent pain chocolat and one of the city's top coffee shops are both in the Mercado San Telmo and we visited daily. The neighborhood has wonderful atmosphere and the nearby Zanjon de Granados museum was fascinating. For those visiting in summer remember to bring insect repellent, we weren't prepared (though it was easy enough to stock up at the nearby pharmacy).
