We were so glad that we found Nora’s apartment, situated in the historic Barrio Yungay in a new apartment block with 24 hour concierge. Nora had given us extensive information beforehand so we knew what to expect and what to do locally. Supplied with all the basics for a comfortable stay, the apartment was in a family area with pleasant sounds of friends talking, children playing and dogs barking. There were no food supplies, but the local supermarket is only one block away at the local Plaza. A good place to go on the weekend and see local entertainment. The Metro was close by and easy to use. I was extremely grateful that Nora spoke English. My suitcase never arrived so she helped me with where to go to replace some of my clothes and supplies. I can recommend Nora’s apartment especially if you are interested in the historical centre and we are glad to have started our South American holiday at this location.
