relaxing 5 days spent in sleepy little town, swimming in the dammed river watching the world flow by, perfectly hot for days in the shade of tree-lined riverbanks, and nights drinking wine and eating tastily
cool hostel owners Lucas y Carolina made us very welcome, bought Juliet a birthday lip gloss and treated us to our first asado, only …
San Antonio de Areco- Home of the Cowboys
A 20 hour bus journey later (this bus company was more punctual than the other) we arrived in BA, and jumped on another 2 hour bus to San Antonio de Areco.

Reviewed Apr 7, 2011

Kitchen was OK, breakfast was standard Argentine (basic and counted), also could't leave our bags the next day as she wasn't going to be there (I feel for anyone trying to check in then).
