Staying with Maria was wonderful!! My flight was late and I arrived very late at night, but Maria was waiting for me even though I arrived close to midnight. She gave excellent directions on how to get from the airport to her home, which were very easy to follow. The room was super comfortable, plenty of space to store my belongings and a private bathroom right next to it. Maria is a wonderful host with plenty of experience hosting international visitors even if they don't speak Spanish, which was my case. She was always ready with very helpful tips and recommendations for places to see and eat and how to get there. I was visiting to dance tango and couldn't have picked a better location, lots of great milongas nearby! I was worried that getting home late at night would disturb Maria, but because of the room location it was not a problem. The neighborhood is very charming, with two wonderful cafes right across the street and many more close by. It is also within a walking distance to a subway, so getting around was very easy. There are several grocery stands and two supermarkets nearby and Maria provides a shelf in the fridge, which is very handy if you want to store your groceries there. There is also an electric kettle in your room, which was super handy for making tea or instant coffee. The only regret I have is that I was there only for one week!! I would definitely stay there again and will recommend Maria's place to my friends. Couple of tips on getting around, I wish I had learned about earlier, there is a very handy travel directions app Comollego, which also works in the browser, type in your location and destination and it will give you directions using public transportation, walking, biking, or driving. Also, Whatsapp was super handy for texting.
