| You will absolutely love this apartment. We stayed two weeks beginning in late October and our stay was absolutely perfect. Upon arrival we were met by the local manager Guillermina, who is an absolute gem. She provided recommendations and a full orientation to the apartment, and the city. The location is simply the best in BA and the quarters are beautiful. We used the balcony for afternoon drinks and truly enjoyed all of the beauty. Jeff, the owner was excellent to work with, answering many questions etc. I highly recommend this apartment (and this neighborhood) if you are considering a visit to BA. Thanks Jeff and Guille! |

| My 2 friends and I had a fantastic time in Buenos Aires! The apt was absolutely adorable, and in the best location in BA! We all wished we had this apt in SF and in NY, NY! The apt manager was readily available, and very helpful with local information. I would highly recommend this place to anyone going to BA, it was overall PERFECT! |

We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. It is
the perfect location in Palermo ... close to
restaurants and shops and easy access to cabs.
There is a laundry nearby which has great service
and a grocery store. We stayed 10 nights and it
was a nice little home away from home, with WiFi,
friendly maid service, and fantastic concierge
service and advice from the property coordinator.
It would be nice if there was an ATM closer than 8
blocks, but other than that, we don't any
complaints, only positives.
I recommend a taxi from the airport rather than
one of the services -- its cheaper and all the
drivers know how to find the area.
We would happily stay here next time we come to
BA. |

| This place is awesome. Great location, beautiful accommodations and great price. The apartment manager Guille is wonderful and very helpful and they even helped out with a great driver from the airport. Way better deal than the expensive tiny boutique hotels we stayed in nearby. |

This apartment is ideal in the fact that it is located in a great area. There are at least ten superb restarants withing walking distance that are all different and very affordable. One of the best steak parrillas is within blocks of the apartment. The laundry mat, grocery store and a great book store are all very close by and a walk out the front door and you can hail a cab. You know what they say...Location, Location, Location! The apartment has a workable kitchen, a comfortable bed and a housekeeper once a week.

I really was pleased with our week long stay at 1832 Thames. It was a wonderful price for a great location. The apartment had plenty of closet space and I really appreciated the WIFI.
The area in Palermo could not have been better. Restaurants, bars and shopping, right outside the door, and within walking distance to the D line subte. Jeffrey, the owner and Giullermina, the local contact were very pleasant and helpful and it was very good to have an arranged car service, provided at an additional charge, waiting for us on arrival at the airport.
Just remember to bring your own toiletries (shampoo and soap) as this is an apartment, not a hotel. A washing machine and dryer are free and right on the premesis. (maybe bring a small box of detergent with you too).
Overall, a great experience and I would not hesitate to stay there again. |

Everything was great. Location was very convenient
and apartment was extremely comfortable. We
especially appreciated the Internet access. Building
was clean and quiet. We also appreciated the use of a
telephone. We felt right at home. |

Great Place, Great Location!!
The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay in Buenos Aires!! The kitchen had all the necessities to make a gourmet meal and the living area offered all the modern electronic conveniences of CD and DVD players, cable, telephone and Internet. The only minor problem during our stay was being able to connect our own personal laptops to the apartment’s wireless router. However, the apartment still offered the convenience of the Apple Mini Mac, if you chose to use the existing computer for Internet connectivity. Nevertheless, the apartment did have wifi available – just at a slower Internet connection for personal laptop use.
A noteworthy mention was that management was always available – very helpful and responsive. Management even offered suggestions for some of the local attractions. Overall, the apartment was quiet at night, but if you want to enjoy some of the locals’ favorite night time spots and restaurants, you only have to walk a few blocks. As for transportation, the bus line runs in front of the apartment (Number 55). Also, the apartment is about 7 blocks from the subway on Santa Fe (Plaza Italia), which was more convenient for getting around the city (only 90 centavos for a one way pass).
Our stay was relatively short but I would recommend the place for long-term stay as well. Thanks Jeffrey and Guillermina for a wonderful Buenos Aires experience!

our problem free stay at 1832 Thames has convinced
us to always choose a vacation rental over a traditional
hotel and we cannot wait to plan our next trip!This
place and area is truly amazing! |
