The apartment was fairly much as presented however but was not up to the level of expectations that we have in regard to a self hosted apartment. The main problem was the lack of air conditioning. The hot weather that was present, and continued for the time we were in Buenos Aires led us to have to vacate the apartment after one night. We were able to find a very nice hotel with a kitchenette, air conditioning, 4 star rating and a much better location for about the same price that we paid for the apartment. The apartment has no air conditioning and in addition has no screening of the windows so you had to choose between oppressive heat or being eaten up by the mosquitoes. We actually were unable to escape either. I would certainly not advise anyone to rent this apartment in the summer months and to also be aware that you have to provide everything even to the basics of salt and pepper. In addition the level of cleanliness was rather poor. Mr Blanco was a helpful host but, of course, was unwilling to alter our agreement and return any of our payment. I understand his position but I can only say "buyer beware." The neighborhood is not the best and the closest recommended restaurant was rather poor. It does have access to a market right next door. Look closely between the lines when renting through this company.
