Sooooo I will try to answer this from possibly their perspective and then my own. Argentina was obviously closed down to non nationals for like 14 months or more. It seems like basically anything that was tourist based, like sports bars for american football are gone. The peso to dollar is the lowest for them it has ever been. The black market gets you 200:1 peso to USD. A bottle of wine and a steak with salad and papas fritas cost me $8 last night. There are very few tourists here it seems. The economy here is terrible and many people dont have jobs. Protests everyday.
That being said, I love exactly what Argentina has to offer. I don't like hanging out in Recoleta or puerto madero and maybe thats why I haven't seen many tourists. San Telmo is my favorite neighborhood and I guess its slightly touristy, its not the ghetto or anything. I love being the only tourist around, not speaking english, getting looks because I am out of place and everything is so ridiculously cheap. I love it down here and compared to Bolivia/Colombia/etc I feel really safe in Buenos Aires. I am 33 and single and have been on the road for about 5 years now so this is my vibe here. My travel style is not for most people though so it just really depends on what youre looking for.
