PROS: Very good remodeling job (unlike some other hotels in B.A.) Very good breakfast Reliable Wi-Fi in lobby/dining area (USD * per day to have Internet in your room) Courteous and helpful staff Quiet (there is construction across the street from the lobby but our room in the back was very quiet) CONS: Rooms are really small. No dresser. The only place to put clothing was in some very limited space on a quasi entertainment center/desk/closet. Sketchy picture quality on TV (the coaxial cable most likely needs to be replaced due to salt air intrusion and decay). Highly variable water temperature in shower, which indicates they are using a "calefon" for a hot water heater and have multiple rooms connected to it, or else have serious problems with water pressure. Either way, a hotel of this size should be using a boiler for their hot water and not a "calefon". Not sure if this hotel has central air conditioning or not. Our room was pretty warm in the late afternoon, so we opened the window to generate a breeze. If you are planning to stay during the summer months, make sure the A/C is working because Buenos Aires is pretty hot and muggy Dec. thru March and you'll die of heat prostration without it.

If you want large, comfortable rooms, don't stay here. Small rooms, small shower. Good breakfast. Hallway noises also travelled easliy through the paper thin walls. Due to cooking smells and loud outside noise we closed our window, one evening it got a little warm. We asked the hotel to please turn on the air. There is one controller per floor handled by the front desk. The air came on for about 10 minutes then was turned off and never came on again. We were not happy.

Clean. Good breakfasts, that were included. Free wifi in the lobby, though is very slow and pages need to be reloaded constantly. The desk help spoke both Spanish and English and had some helpful tourist suggestions. The location was excellent - in close proximity to a lot. The downside was that our room was very small, the toilets didn;t flush well, the tv was old and had poor reception. The hotel had obviously put more effort into it;s lobby than individual rooms. Overall a good experience but don't expect luxury.

This is an excellent value for the money... the rooms were small but clean, nicely decorated, and bright; there is a lovely European-style breakfast every morning; and the staff is extremely helpful and poilite. Although there is a street noise problem for some of the rooms, the hotel staff tried diligently (and successfully!) to find me a perfect replacement. This is a small building in a very central location-- a superb location-- so sounds of the city are unavoidable, and for people who need absolute silence, this may not be the best choice. But for urbanites, it's fine. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fue muy agradable mi estadía en este hotel, realmente es muy económico y el servicio y confort de las habitaciones es excelente. Solicité en recepción que me extendieran mi horario de salida que era a las 10.00 am y sin porblema alguno me pude quedar hasta las 13.00 hs sin abonar ninguna diferencia. Las habitaciones son chicas pero sumamente confortables , con muy buen diseño.
