About this property

Borges Place - Beautiful loft in Plaza San Martin

Summary:
Enjoy this 490 sqft/ 45 sqf loft located in the Downtown area of Buenos Aires! Located a few steps away from Florida Street, Galerias Pacifico Shopping Center, and Puerto Madero, this amazing studio has everything you need for a long and mid stay in the heart of Buenos Aires, where you can combine the vibrant city with a relaxed place. This building became famous because it was once home to Jorge Luis Borges, a famous literature writer.

The Space:
If you are looking for a very cool apartment to enjoy your stay in Buenos Aires, the décor of Borges’ Place will not disappoint you. Upon entering this trendy loft, it is clear that this industrial designed space provides the perfect balance between comfort and style. With its open/loft concept you will never feel cluttered. Bathed with natural light and with unobstructed views of Plaza San Martin, the gorgeous former Palace Paz building (now the Argentine Military Circle and Museum of Arms, c.1914), and Palace Haedo, (now used as the National Parks headquarters c.1871), you will feel as if you never left Europe.

Enjoy the large and very private terrace for sunbathing and romantic dinners. The king size bed, surrounded by luxurious velvet and silk drapery, is ideal for relaxing on a night in whilst enjoying the flat screen TV. A full modern bathroom with a fantastic shower as well as a half bathroom is available.
There is a fully equipped kitchen for those who love to cook at home.

The home is strategically located a few steps away from Calle (street) Florida, Galerias Pacifico Shopping Center and Puerto Madero. You will be able to visit the famous monument el Puente de la Mujer (the Woman's Bridge), the naval museums, and Recoleta, where you can enjoy the afternoon in the beautiful Plaza Francia (Francia Square), letting yourself be captivated by the portside culture. Also, you will have a great number of high-end restaurants, bars, clubs and hotels.

The Neighborhood:
This is a very special area of the city. It’s in between bustle Downtown and posh Recoleta. The Plaza San Martín (San Martín Square), where the monument to General Jose de San Martin is located, works as a nexus and a space integrator.
The zone is very close to La Torre del Reloj (The Clock Tower), Puerto Madero, and Recoleta.
The perfect neighborhood to stroll and enjoy the French architecture with almost instant access to downtown and you will also have a great number of high-end restaurants, bars, clubs and hotels.

Getting Around:
Two blocks away from Av. 9 de Julio (nearby Metro Station C, San Martin), Good public transport access.

Borges Place: Top Buenos Aires Location? Yes, But...
PROS.1.Borges Place is situated in a prime, tranquil location 3.Design: single-space studio. Stylish, minimalist aesthetics. 4.Work/office space: tiny; you may use the kitchen table 5.Internet connection: strong. CONS 1.Communication: it took time until Oasis responded to my first inquiries. Then texting was via Whatsapp, too impersonal and inefficient. All issues required “proof” (photos taken/uploaded on WhatsApp and subject to “I will show it to my local team and let you know” basis) 2.Air-conditioning: the apartment has NO central heating (an issue during winter.The air-conditioner, old, NOISY, and ill-maintained was serviced when I complained I couldn't sleep.Technicians came, cleaned it for the 1st time(?) evidence-photos were sent (I supervised), concluded the aircon needed replacement. Still pending 3. Maintenance:The price did NOT include acleaning fee. Oasis asked 20 US$ extra and I paraphrase Vrbo on this “grey” area: "no clearcut policy; speak w/ Oasis, we wash our hands off this deal.” 4. Insulation: street noise levels are OK but in-building noises are a nuisance. One locked door separates your bed from the elevator shaft and corridor. Insulation is a BIG must. 5. Accountability: The mini-fridge of the apartment had from day-one shelf missing,freezer door broken and shelf cracked and glued. Just after checkout an email from Oasis demanded I pay for damages incurred.I sent several messages/emails defending my innocence. Now is this a vacation or a court hearing?
