In our instance we didn't pay much (only $30 for the night as we wanted a quick one night stopover) but to be honest I wouldn't have stayed there for nothing, in fact we ended up changing our plans and taking an overnight bus to Mendoza instead! The whole place was shabby, poorly decorated and not properly cleaned, which is... More

Simple hotel, very basic. You get what you pay for. We shared a twin single room, the room was clean, the beds seemed clean. (Never sure, so we just chucked a sheet on them anyway). The majority of the staff were very helpful and friendly, there was only one older gent who wasn't very interested. Fantastic location, just 3 mins... More

Only a 10 minute walk into the city centre and safe neightbourhood. The bathrooms are nice and spacious. Drawbacks - they offer no facilities, no kitchen, internet or TV common room. The rooms are VERY basic and need some work done.

Upon arriving, I read the previous review on bed bugs so I inspected the bedding and mattress. After sleeping the first night I hadn't noticed any bites, bugs or poop spots so I think I might be in the clear. The first room I stayed in had no heating since it's meant to summer guests. The second night I checked... More

we booked a reservation after friends recommended. Seemed like good value, great location.. but then...our bed was a bed bug Pearl Harbor. After 2 hours, we started scratching a lot... turned on the light and we found 15-20 bugs in our bed. I went downstairs to tell the guy at the front desk.... first, he called them mosquitos (that's the... More

The hotel is in San Telmo near Bocco and therefore is not central: however taxi rides are inexpensive and the subway is within a half hour walk. The units are each unique and all surround courtyards. The units are not quiet...the hotel owners rented the roof deck for a party (above us) and the party continued until very late and... More

We stayed here on two occasions as it was the cheapest place I could find on the internet in Buenos Aires. The place is very run down with paint peeling off the walls and broken windows, except the ground floor which has been done up recently. It still manages to keep it's charm though, the building was very grand at... More
