I am sorry to have to say that we were disappointed by the accommodation. The photographs and description give the sense of a luxury, spacious and airy modern flat which it is not. The decor is tired and stained. The bathrooms to the double rooms are cramped, dated and have minimal ventilation. The beds creak if you move. There is a smell of damp (and damp damage to the paintwork) and the odour of the plastic roller blinds heated by the sun. The cleaning was fine where superficial cleaning sufficed but even then enormous cobwebs full of flies hung in the corner of the sitting room and also around the table. The cups and plates in the kitchen cupboard were dirty. The air con in my bedroom was too noisy to sleep and the busy road meant that one kept the window closed and was stifled in an airless room. It was considerably cooler in BsAs than on our previous visits, and I cannot imagine how hot the apartment can become, especially as the air con must not be left one when one is out. It was our 9th visit to Buenos Aires and we had hoped this would be a place to enjoy and relax but instead we wished to spend the minimum time there.
Marcella was efficient, greeting us on arrival and informing us of the house rules - no leaving air con on when out or setting it to cool below 23 degrees, no using own hairdryer, no using all four hobs simultaneously (cooking facilities limited), no using a transformer and to take great care in trying to open and close the roller blind (as they are not properly fixed). She followed up to ask us if we needed anything but the problems were beyond her powers. Maybe the apartment is fair enough for the price, I have no comparison. However, had it been accurately portrayed, we would not have booked it and been willing to pay more for the higher standard implied by the listing. The past reviews seem inexplicably positive, although, on closer analysis, many concentrate on the proximity of local eateries and other peripheral matters.
