Valeria's apartment is located on a quiet street near the border of Palermo and Colegiales. It's the perfect location for people who want to be close to bars/restaurants, but not in the middle of all the action. Some people may not feel comfortable walking in this area at night, but I never felt unsafe or had an issue. The apartment has a lot of character and i liked that the "underground" bedroom stayed relatively cool during the hot summer months. I also liked that the apartment has a garden area and a private entrance to the street.
During my two month stay, I encountered a few issues. On one occasion I didn't have electricity for a day and a half, another time around 10 hours, and another around 3. This was not Valeria's fault, but still important to note. Also, the hot water stopped working several times and it usually took 1-2 days to fix.
Upon arriving to the apartment, the cable TV did not work and was never fixed.
Overall the apartment is nice, but needs a few general updates.
