We stayed in this apartment for six nights in March. We love the San Telmo neighborhood and have stayed in the area once before. The owner, Ricardo, is quite nice and speaks fluent English. The apartment is fairly large and has beautifully polished floors.

However, it is situated on Peru Street which is extremely noisy at all times of the day and night. We like to keep windows open. If you don't mind closing the windows and balcony door, it won't be a problem. The balcony is quite long and has a table with several chairs.

The linens were quite dingy and grey with use--there was some confusion with the cleaning staff who put old sheets on the bed that were extremely thin and had lost their elasticity to hold on to the mattress. The owner finally did supply new sheets for the master bedroom. The bed itself is quite squishy and my husband prefers a firm mattress, so he slept in the second bedroom. This room has two single beds. We informed the owner that they needed mattress pads.

Be aware that the shower in the second bathroom is merely a shower head coming out of the wall of the tiny bathroom itself. It would be extremely difficult to use.

The kitchen needs a good scubbing, particularly the insides of the cabinets as well as all the glass objects and other decor.

It was difficult to see in the pictures the exact furniture in the apartment. We could not find anywhere to sit in the living area. There is a single mattress covered in faux leather, a strange orange bucket chair, and a kind of reclining deck chair. The dining table, however, is large enought to seat six people.

The apartment is near Plaza Dorrego and other tourist sites in the San Telmo neighborhood.
