Rental Apartments vs Hotels

[Dickhead]

I voted from the perspective of my prior status as a visitor. I do think it depends on the length of the stay. The longer the stay, the more the scales tilt towards the apartment. A week might be a rough break-even point. Also the better the Spanish skills, the more the scales tilt towards the apartment. Finally, the greater your desire to cook or get some one else to cook in your home, the more the scales tilt towards the apartment.

The scales could be tilted back to the hotel, if.

1) you are the type of person who uses a hell of a lot of towels and could need more at a moment's notice (the noted former monger Mickey Mouse comes to mind here),

2) you would use concierge-type services such as obtaining theater tickets (of course the Argentina Private Mansion provides concierge services, as do some apartment purveyors to varying degrees)

3) you would get frequent flyer or frequent guest-type points.

Those are just some random thoughts I had. I think the Mansion is a bit of a hybrid with aspects of a hotel and aspects of an apartment.

Greetings everyone,

As the operator of a rental apartment myself, and as a friend of several forum members with rental apartments, including Capt Dave's Mansion, I am curious to know how many guys prefer rental apartments vs hotels for their visits to BA.

Thanks,

Jackson
