My family and I stayed there for our first visit to Buenos Aires. We were able to get in the room early upon arrival and they were helpful in selecting the correct rooms for our famiy ( allowed us to look at them before giving us our room assignment). Some of the staff was helpful but some were uncoooperative and had a chip on their shoulder. I heard them speak english and spanish.
The room was a nice size with a queen bed or two full size bed and a futon that a kid can sleep on if you want , to small for an adult and hard ( I know this because I had to sleep on it for one night). The bathroom was ok (old and no fan) , seemed like we never had enough towels. The elevator was small and as said prior could barely hold 3 people. The stairs were always full of things so it made it difficult to go up and down them ( roomservice trays, linens, etc.) When we were checking out they were getting ready for a busy weekend and were sold out on the day we left so they had no late checkout but would hold your luggage for you until you were done with your sightseeing. The same day the whole staff look hurried and wanted the people that were checking out , out of the hotel. We began hearing the cleaning of the rooms at 800am after we had stayed out until 100 am for a tango show, so you really couldn't get good rest. To clean the rooms they were using a shop vac vacuum that sounded like a jet engine and made it very noisy. Location was not bad in Ricolletta within 6 to 12 blocks of Florida Street and the Cemetary ( easy to grab a cab: 15 -20 pesos aregentinos to most place (5-10 american dollars) ). The breakfast was nothing special they had some runny eggs,bread , and sour fruit and juices. The breakfast was until 1030 am and they would take everything away( drinks and food) at that time even if there were people sitting there eating. I would not stay there again unless I was in desperate need of a place to stay.
