Definitely would like to visit BA again and hangout with my new friend I made. Maybe I'll try a condo in Palermo next time

On your next trip try to book a room or condo without prepaying it. You will save substantially by paying in pesos. For example the rate at the Etoile is about $119 with a 24 hr cancellation policy. Changing your dollars in the blue market and paying in pesos it would end up costing about $85/night.
