There is an apartment rental company owned by gay people and marketed as such. I believe it is called "Friendly Apartments." I don't know anything about the quality of the apartments or their prices.
I always arrange for my apartment through a friend of mine there who is a travel agent. She regularly arranges apartment rentals. If you'd like her information, feel free to PM me.

Gay Apartment Recommendation for Buenos Aires
Ok guys and gals, i think i have asked this question before so here goes.
I finally bought a ticket to South America for this coming April. Will be flying from Miami in to Rio, staying 4 nights in Rio then continueing on to Buenos Aires and staying in BA for 8 nights.
I was wondering if anyone can recommend or have stayed in one of the apartments from FriendlyApartments.com that is advertised. The price are so cheap for a week stay that my partner and i have decided to stay there instead of a hotel. There are soooo many apartments to choose from and they are all in the Recoleta(gay area) district of Buenos Aires.
We have not clue as to which one is the nicer one to book. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I would still like to get more specific--what you get for different prices, locations, amenities--first hand info on apartments, too. Same for Bayres B&B. I'll be there in May. There are some good pictures on the "Friendly" site and also on Bayres'. Unfortunately, I've learned the hard way that photos can be misleading.

That is what i am afraid of. Photos can be VERY misleading. Booked a hotel in NYC 2 years ago and the hotel website had some really nice shots of rooms. The place was a dump!!!

I was there last September, I used www.friendlyapartments.com they were pretty good and the apartment was exactly the same as they describe I paid $50 dlls per night and rented for 2 weeks in the Las Heras building it was safe and close to everything, I also saw the concord callao building which is pretty close but prefer the Las Heras its quieter unless you prefer a larger complex, more activity and noise because the building also houses businesses
