I stayed with Magda for one week while taking Spanish classes at a nearby language school (El Pasaje, a 20 min walk from the apt). Magda was a wonderful host as were her three pets - Lola the dog, Poncho the cat, and Carolita the friendly turtle. Magda's apartment is spacious, eclectic and homey. I enjoyed the fresh baked bread, morning coffee, and conversations with Magda who was extremely tolerant of my limited Spanish. A great choice for someone (especially a woman traveling solo) looking for a safe and comfortable home base in Buenos Aires.
