Date: Fri, 31 Dec 1999 12:33:59 -0500 From: Daniel Stabe <dms9 @PO.CWRU.EDU> Subject: SA: Buenos Aires Lodging I am posting this for Cleveland tanguero, Ricardo Ramos, who just returned from Argentina: "Having just returned from Buenos Aires, I had the opportunity to secure economical alojamiento (lodging) at La Pension de Don Ramon, which has four bedrooms and one shared bath. This pension is newly remodelled and refurnished. The kitchen has all new cabinets and appliances. It is rocated on Peron near Pueyrredon in the center of Buenos Aires. It is within a few blocks of the A and B subway lines. Buses are readiy available. A supermarket is four blocks away. A housekeeper cleans the apartment twice a week. I found everything to be neat, clean and tidy. This pension will be an excellent spot to stay while pursuing the tango. I have no financial interest in La Pension de Don Ramon, but only want to recommend an alternative to expensive hotel rooms to fellow tangueros and tangueras. You may contact Don Ramon Felipe Caceres at his email address: Pensiondonramon @hotmail.com. Room prices are very reasonable by day, week or month. Don Ramon speaks English, Spanish and some French. A web site is in the works." Ricardo Ramos Cleveland, Ohio, USA 440-884-8430
