My husband and I decided to go to Argentina for the Holidays. We wanted to be in the "center" of Buenos Aires in a small hotel, where we would be treated by our 'given name' and not be just a 'number'. We found this and so much more in this hotel! The owner is always there and you can talk... More

You are paying here for a hotel in a great location. The rooms are morelike private hostel rooms, but the beds are comforatable and there are safes in each room. My room also had air con. The price is great value for BA. It is an hotel, but has the feel of a hostel - with the exception of the... More

We stayed here one night as a cheap centrally located option. and it was just that. Great location to walk wherever you wanted in Recoleta- and great to be amongst the apartment style living of the people in Recoleta. There is some nice cafes close by for breakfast and like I said, walking distance to the cemetary, santa fe shopping... More

We stayed at this hotel on two separate nights in March. The first night we had a large room with A/C for 290AR and the other night we had a basic room for 220AR. The larger room had a queen bed and a twin bed. We really enjoyed the location of this hotel. Just a few blocks away from the... More

One of the best experiences through the world. Location is the heart of Recoleta, one of the quietest areas in BsAs. Major attractions are within walking distance. Hotel itself is small mansion in Art Deco style (mixed with Neoclassic and Art Noveau features), very convenient, clean, and comfortable to stay in. For people, who likes sunbathing, there is the terrace... More

I stayed here twice in November 2010 with a friend. The first visit we had room #121. It had 2 twin beds and a queen bed. The bathroom had a toilet where you had to pull the cord to flush the toilet. On the second visit we had room #119. This room was noisier than the first room. It's on... More

If you are on a budget, but want a safe area - this one is for you. Shabby, but clean. Quiet. Use the web site discount and get a day free for each 4 days you buy. The 220 peso room w/bath is quite small. We wanted the large 250 peso one, but none were available. I was able to... More

The hotel is in a convenient location in Recoleta. This was our second visit to Buenos Aires. We first stayed at the Intercontinental but like the Recoleta area much better even though the IC itself was very nice. Although breakfast is not served, there was an excellent bakery around the corner. We mainly used this place to sleep, shower and... More

This was a find that we would recommend to anyone. The hotel is in the safest part of Buenos Aires, La Recoleta, with fabulous restaurants and patisseries nearby (we liked Louis XV patisserie). It is next to BA’s stunning cemetery. The rooms are huge and comfortable – parquet floors, high ceilings, old European feel. TV has English channels. Bathroom is... More

Overall, the hotel is clean and the location is really what you would pay for. The safe recoleta neighborhood is probably the sole reason you should choose this hotel. Given the more economical price of the hotel in this expensive neighborhood, it's a reasonable deal. The owner and the managers are decent people. They're not overly welcoming and at times... More
