Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very nice, but the bathroom was quite poor and the furnishings were basic. The service, however, was top-notch with extremely pleasant and helpful staff. The location was great, just a short walk to lots of good bars and restaurants in Palermo. The dining options were a bit overpriced and poor. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The rooms, with private bathrooms, were very nice and comfortable, although some were subpar and not well maintained. The service was excellent, with a very friendly and helpful staff. The location was great if you want to explore Palermo, close to restaurants and bars, but not ideal for visiting other parts of Buenos Aires. The dining options, although included, could be more diverse. As for the facilities, they were decent but could use some improvements.
Although the room was noisy and somewhat unappealing in decor, it was spacious enough for two guests. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly helpful and friendly. The location was convenient and surrounded by great dining options in a nice neighborhood. The dining experience was basic and overpriced. Overall, the hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives.
