Loved Palace San Martin!

We stayed in this stunning historical apartment for a few nights prior to our cruise. It was perfect for two couples, with the two master suites, lots of room for the four of us. Our hosts were amazing, responding almost immediately

A nice stay in Buenos Aires

We had a group ranging from two to five people (depending on the day). The apartment was very comfortable and is located in a nice neighborhood. The building and apartment has an interesting old-world feel. The supermarket is conveniently located a few doors down.

Wonderful apartment!

The apartment was as described - very comfortable, with two bedrooms and two full baths. Nicely decorated. Very clean and welcoming. Plenty of space for suitcases/storage, etc. It was fun to "live like an Argentinian" while exploring Buenos Aires. Grocery store and great restaurants are within walking distance, as is a park facing the San Martin Palace. The owners suggested using Jorge as a taxi driver while in town (number provided in welcome packet) and he proved to be personable, reliable, and willing to help us in any way. I highly recommend using Jorge during your visit.The owners were very responsive to all of our questions, and accommodated our request for an early check-in. Cecilia (who met us at the apartment) was lovely and very helpful as well.Great place to stay!

Stately apartment in great location

The apartment is just as it appears in the photos. The beds are comfortable, and the living areas are nice to spend time in with the floor to ceiling windows that let in lots of light. The location is wonderful as it is in a beautiful neighborhood, and it is a 15-20 minute walk to many of the city highlights.

GREAT FIND IN BSAS

Property was clean, spacious, and a great location. The owner communication was excellent, and Alberto, who takes care of the property, was very helpful and reliable. It’s a very secure place and easy walking to any of the many important sites of the city and shopping. Thank You Jennifer, next time I come to BsAs, I’ll let you know.

Great location, wonderful hosts!

We loved our time at Jennifer and Colin's place in Buenos Aires! The beds are very comfortable which is key for a happy travel experience! The location is great! There are little shops all around, including a little bakery across the street. Buenos Aires is a large place so expect to take taxis as you tour the city. Jennifer and Cecelia were very accommodating with an early check-in and a late check-out which was so helpful. We enjoyed our time there and would recommend their place!

Six nights in Buenos Aires

This apartment has so much character! From the ride up in the historic “lift” to the creaky hardwood floors, it’s a delight. We found the location perfect for walking and exploring, inexpensive Uber rides to places further away. We were greeted at the apartment by Laura, who showed us the ropes, then helped us during the week with requests. Our hosts were very gracious and helpful from first booking through final checkout. A few things need to be refreshed, which we reported, and received thanks from the owners for letting them know, It really is beautiful! I hope to stay again in the future.,

Convenient

House was clean, very well arranged, would come back. What i didn’t like is the coffee pot had no water tank, so i wasn’t please that i couldn’t have coffee every morning , that is a big deal to me. Also the slicer to cut onions had the knob missing so it didn’t work, and one of the candles was broke in half that was on table. Great house but need more attention to detail. I would come back if coffe pot was fixed.

Expansive apartment in the ideal location

Recoleta: central to all you want to do in beautiful Buenos Aires. With two full bedrooms and two full bathrooms, a huge dining room, equally spacious living room, this apartment has to be among the best for a stay in BA. We did not eat in but the kitchen seemed up to the task. Wooden floors and doors as well as the carefully chosen antique furniture transport you to old BA. While it is not a modern apartment with central air the living space remained cool (except for the two power outages endemic in BA). The A/C in the hall connecting the two bedrooms labored. Jennifer provided a manual for the apartment plus restaurant recommendations and her own list of Things to Do. She was easy to deal with. Her rep on site, Cecelia was welcoming (a hug) despite our very late 0100 arrival. The apartment sits on Piso Cinco. If the power goes out, it’s over a hundred steps to climb. I counted: three times. We loved our 6 day stay and would highly recommend.

Nos hospedamos 6 personas, incluyendo 2 menores de edad. Desde el inicio de la reserva la comunicación fue excelente. Al llegar al departamento, nos recibió cálidamente Cecilia, quien nos mostró las instalaciones y funcionamiento. El departamento es más grande de lo que se ve en las fotos. Equipado. Y es para destacar su limpieza. Teniendo en cuanta la cantidad de personas que nos hospedamos, el lugar fue muy acogedor. Agradecemos a Cecilia y Laura por su atención. Volveremos sin dudas.

Awesome location. Hosts were fun and attentive to our every need. It was a flawless 8 day stay in an incredible old mansion. You get the entire 5th floor in a classy part of town.

Experiência magnífica

O Imóvel é muito bem localizado, em Terminales com fácil acesso a Recoleta e ao Microcentro, tem estação do metro na mesma quadra assim como vários onibus que passam perto e atendem a quase toda a cidade, além da estação de trem de terminales que facilita o acesso as áreas da região norte da cidade. As comodidades do local tem padaria e mercado na quadra além de bons restaurante e da sorveteria Rapanui na mesma praça. O prédio é antigo e bem conservado com o elevador de época funcionando. O apartamento é amplo com peças grandes e bem decorado com o estilo portenho, possuí vários eletrodomésticos. A limpeza é boa e não tem odores de mofo, cigarro ou poeira, algo que nos preocupava. A Laura foi uma ótima anfitriã e nos ajudou quando precisamos, antes, durante e depois da estadia. Recomendo o apartamento e pretendo voltar novamente.

Great for families!

Wonderful property with lots of natural light and high ceilings! We stayed here with our 8- and 9-year-old children. Close to grocery stores, restaurants, panaderias, parks, and public transit. A small issue with the hot water heater came up and the host, the local property manager, and the building’s doorman were all very fast to respond and helpful in getting a plumber in right away to fix the problem. We really enjoyed our stay here and would choose it again if (hopefully when!) we return to Buenos Aires!
