Perfect BsAs Apartment!

As a couple travelling with our five month old son we wanted to avoid staying at a hotel, especially given the fact we had a twelve night stay in Buenos Aires. This aparmtent met our needs perfectly, it is in the perfect location, Las Canitas is a very desirable area, and this apartment is located on the main eating strip, Baez. You literally step out of the door and have a dozen restaurant, bar and cafe options in a beautiful leafy, paved neighbourhood. Seriously, for an extended stay in Buenos Aires, you can't under estimate the value of a relaxed neighbourhood, with everything you need in strolling distance.
Within 100 metres you can get your laundry done, have breakfast at an atmospheric cafe, great steak for lunch, pick up some fresh baked goodies at the bakery, maybe an empanada for a snack, fresh fruit from the local fruiter, boutique wines and chocolates, cheeses and small goods plus all your grocery needs from the local corner store and then be 20 steps from really great bars late in the evening!
The apartment is very comfortable, nice shower with plenty of hot water, lots of natural light and a great balcony to sit out on with a bottle of wine. Even though the apartment is locted right near the restaurants and bars, it is positioned on the back of the block so noise isn't an issue. The apartment is a good size for a studio, and we felt comfortable cooking the odd meal and eating in, with a well stocked kitchen and designated dining area. The bedding is comfortable, and the blinds darken the room making sleeping in easy. Being five levels up (there is a lift) you get a great sense of light and space, with the apartment looking back over the polo grounds/race track and beyond the suburbs.
The apartment has a doorman who collects rubbish from outside your door and ensures security within the building (although, the complex and suburb of Las Canitas as a whole, felt very safe.
For sightseeing, Las Canitas is within walking distance of Palermo and the furtherest point of La Boca was a 25 Peso cab ride, with cab prices so cheap, you literally step out of your door, hale a cab and travel to your destination for sightseeing each day, couldn't be easier. And as our Spanish is atrocious, it was handy that every cabbie knew Baez, Las Canitas even through my poor pronunciation!
This aparmtent and location really gave us the sense of living and soaking up BsAS, we started to feel like a local after the 12 days, highly recommended!
