Dave and his extended family are great to communicate with. They're generous with information and respond to all questions promptly, whether via email or on the phone. Dave´s mother-in-law was a gold mine of information about Buenos Aires' architecture and history. His brother-in-law was kind enough to arrange a remise (cab) to the airport, and because of his Porteño accent I think I was able to save some money on the fare! I received the refund of my deposit promptly.
The photos accurately show how attractive, clean and well-equipped this apartment is. The shower has great water pressure, the bed is the second-most (apart from mine!) comfortable one I've ever slept in, the kitchen has everything you need. The apartment is very well situated, near very good restaurants (Sudestada and Osaka are across the street, El Trapiche is two blocks away, Olsen a few streets away) and a ten-minute walk from the shops in both Palermo Soho and Viejo. The Palermo Subte (subway) stop is a few minutes away. Although, it's about 3.5 km away, I enjoyed my walk to Recoleta cemetery, stopping en route at the Eva Peron museum. If you have a chance, spend a day in the country in one of the ranches which offer an Argentinian barbecue.
I cannot recommend this apartment highly enough. A very worthwhile experience which I hope to repeat in the not-too-distant future!
