I likely won't make it to Argentina any time soon as flight prices are crazy and I have other places on my wish list at a higher priority (more Europe, Taiwan, India, Mainland China, Indonesia). However, I have always thought the Park Tower looked interesting.
I will say that I feel the location “problem” might be slightly overblown - the nearby area feels very quiet (perhaps, that’s the problem). While I was advised by hotel staff to not spend time in the areas around Retiro Station to the northwest, I walked around 11 KM around Puerto Madero from and back to the hotel and didn’t notice anything unsavory. Will see other parts of the city today.
