The apartment was a pleasant surprise. It's a relatively new building. Stores, supermercado around the corner. It's in front of a beautiful park. A bit far from the metro station, but buses are close by if you can figure out how to use them. Besides taxis are inexpensive, compared to the US.
The location is perfect with at least 4-5 supermarkets within 5 minute walk. The closest Metro station is also around 5-7 minute walk away. The room is spacious and clean with big balcony. Front desk reception is only open from 9am to 5pm! The only drawback is there are many mosquitoes in the hotel even during daytime so we cannot use the balcony or open the door frequently for fresh air...being afraid more mosquitoes will get inside the room! Mosquitoes seem to be a problem everywhere we go in Buenos Aires...in restaurants or bars during daytime even!
I was worried after reading about other's reviews about lacking staff support. And I asked the booking agency to contact them about our late checkin (around 7pm is actually not too late) and to make sure someone will be there when we arrive. And also asked about leaving out bags there until 4pm after we check out in the morning. So there is someone there when we arrived at 7pm. But the next morning, there was no one there for checking out around 9am. We need to go to a bike tour so we had to leave by 9am. Since no one was there, we had to just leave the key at the front desk. And carried all our bags with us. Fortunately the tour agent agreed to store our bags in their office for the entire day even after the tour. We wanted to use the washing machine, but there is no way to get coins to use it. No shops around can give changes in coins.
