This hotel is totally overpriced, overheated, grungy and staffed by arrogant people who treat you like dirt. The elevators have lound beepers which sound everytime they passa floor and there is a loud announcement saying what floor the elevator is at and to close the doors all of which is clearly audible in the rooms. The central heating is central and even with the window open on a cold night the heat was unbearable, repeated requests to turn it off were ignored. The noise form the busy street is constant, 24/7 as many bus routes pass the hotel and there's the Argentine propensity to use their car horns which exacerbates the cacophony. The internet signal is very weak and many pages can't load. The breakfast food is mediocre and stale (they apparently keep putting it out until it gets eaten even if it's a week which is not good gor things like cheese and ham etc) and the coffee vile. The rack-rate of USD110 is a joke, many other 3 star hotels in Buenos Aires offer far better service and amentities for USD80 and I for one recommend you do not consider this hotel for a minute. It is appalling.
