A friend has completely redecorated and furnished a small apartment she owns
in a great location close to several milongas and in the neighborhood San
Cristobal where
I live. It is walking distance to Celia Blanco's studio/milonga, Nino
Bien, Salon Moreno and close
to bus stops that will take you to many other milongas. There
are several grocery stores close by as well as banks with ATM machines
(Banelco), laundromat, and Locutorios where you can make long distance phone
calls,
mail letters to friends, or check email on your Internet account.
The apartment has one bedroom (approx. 9' x 9') with double bed, large
window (southern exposure) with Levolar blinds and curtains. It has a large
closet with drawers and compartments to hang clothes. There are two
nightstands with lamps. The room is freshly painted and bright. Bed
linens are provided.
The bathroom (approx. 4' x 5') has a medicine cabinet with mirror and shower
stall. Towels are provided.
The living/dining room (approx. 14' x 10') has a sofa/bed (twin), television
with cable stations, large dining table with four chairs, and telephone for
local calls. The living room has a beautifully varnished wood floor.
The kitchen (5' x 6') has a large refrigerator/freezer and cabinets that are
stocked with everything you will need for cooking and some supplies.
There is a portable electric fan to use in the bedroom or living room, but
no air conditioning.
The apartment is on the first floor (above street level) in the rear of a
very quiet building on Estados Unidos near Entre Rios. You have to walk
down the hallway to the rear and walk up a flight of stairs to the
apartment.
The apartment will accommodate one or two people comfortably. The owner
lives across the street. She will arrange for a Remise to meet you at the
airport and bring you to the apartment.
Rental for one week is $250; two weeks $400; three weeks $550; a month $700
plus $20 for cleaning after your stay. A deposit is required to confirm
your reservation. Nonsmokers only.
This apartment has been rented constantly since January and is now available
for Spring and Summer rental. Contact me soon if you are interested.
Please pass this information on to any
friends who are planning a visit to Buenos Aires.
