The hotel is well located downtown close to important shopping áreas. The staff is friendly and prepared to help with advice on tourism. However the hotel needs a lot of up dating. Rooms, lobby and corridors all need renovation. However the price is reasonable and the hotel seems to have good security.

This hotel is very old and in urgent need of renovation. I was staying in a room that does not really match with those photos demonstrated (professional or travellers' photos). There was enough dust mainly behind the television, smell of mold, obsolete bathroom. Staff willing to assist but with their elementary english, communication gets unconfortable. However, the hotel is near... More

The hotel is located in the downtown area of Buenos Aires, near shops (including the famous Calle Florida) and restaurants. The furniture seems pretty old but was functional nonetheless, we were there during the winter and the heated room was a nice thing to come back to after walking in the cold windy streets. Shower was nice, with good pressure,... More

We stayed here for 5 nights and were placed on a smoking floor despite having non smoking on our reservation. We asked to be moved but they had no other rooms available. The rooms we had were quite old and in need of renovation. The staff were friendly and really quite helpful.

The hotel was less than I expected, but still provided all basic features - plus free Internet! Rooms situated above the street are somewhat noisy and other have window overlooking the inner yard. Some rooms have issues with air conditioning or bathroom facilities. There is a WiFi access point on each floor. Beds are comfortable and the breakfast is tasty.... More

A nice hotel, with facilities like free internet and good buffet breakfast. The staff was friendly and spoke fairly good English, which was a big relief for us Asians in a Latin American country. In all a comfortable stay.

Thought it was a great place. Central, good "American" breakfast, unlimited really. Rooms fine, very adequate, excellently cleaned. Some staff speak English, and the English speakers at the front desk could not have been more helpful or friendly. Close to Florida, subte, and shops. Even non-English speakers did their best (I speak no Spanish). No chance of being ripped off,... More
