    The room was spartan; the shower drain was combined with the toilet space, so the water co-mingled between the toilet area and the shower area. The place has a big inner courtyard so the hallway is outside. On a Saturday evening there was an event at a nearby park that raged until 2am, and the noise level in the room was high.

    Staff were great, place was clean. Location was great to walk to a number of shops, restaurants, and tourist sites.

    We booked the most basic room, so it was a little bit old, but we have no complaints!

    We arrived very late at night and the staff greeted us at the door. They said we could check out a little late and use teh common areas as well, since we weren't there for long. The location was great and quiet. The free breakfast of bread, fruit, and coffee was much appreciated.

    Room was quite small but guess that can be expected in a city centre hotel, disappointing breakfast, also some dye from a mosquito band left marks on the bathroom towel and I was charged for the towel even though we had only been out the room half an hour so no attempt could have been made to see if the towel would have come clean!

    Loved the roof terrace, bed was very comfortable, excellent air conditioning which was a godsend during the time we were there, staff were friendly and helpful. Nice area of Buenos Aires with lots of restaurants and bars a short walk away.

    All was good

    Unique hotel in a nice location. Lots of restaurants nearby and neighborhood felt safe. Rooms were clean. We had to leave before breakfast so I can’t comment on that. We also had some slightly complicated transportation needs and the person checking us in taook care of all of it for us and everything was flawless.

    The main building is historic and handsome, though the new buildings where many rooms are located are all concrete with windows facing uglish inner spaces, it's a minor disappointment vs the outer decor and the lobby. Rooms are comfortable but on a smaller size. My room had no desk to work but the common areas are beautiful and provide space and desks for that. The upper terrace is nice. Staff is welcoming and helpful.

    Breakfast was minimal (toast). No hair dryer or water glasses (we borrowed a couple from downstairs).

    Cute hotel in a very pleasant, though touristy, neighborhood. Fun public areas, and our room was particularly charming with a thatched roof -- very enjoyable during a thunderstorm! Staff all friendly and helpful. Good value, would stay again.

    Shower flows into toilet area and does not drain. You must wait for it to air dry. Maybe include a squeegee to push water towards drain. Also, no charging outlets in the room unless you drag the beds away from the wall and unplug the lamps.

    Beautiful hotel with a great wine selection. Loved the athestic of the building and the simple touches of elegance throughout. Breakfast was tasty too.

    Rooms and breakfast were a little basic but perfectly serviceable. Guests check in late at night and this can be disruptive at times.

    The staff (especially Marie-Anna) went above and beyond to help us. The hotel is in a very cool part of town although located in a quieter street. The building has been creatively converted and has interesting architectural features and surprises around every corner.
