Nice overall choice for anyone planning to take the ferry to Uruguay for the day and for easy access to downtown, Galerias Pacifico and Florida Street. Spacious rooms built much like HI Express rooms everywhere. Recently refurbished with newer bedding and carpet. Attractive lobby...decent breakfast bar wiith local pasteries, cereal, yogurt, juice, and fruit. Computer center with five stations and free use of printer. Local calls are free. Early checkin based on availability (I checked in at 10AM, no problem). Phone the hotel directly for best rates...or play with different options on the HI website. I paid US100 per night for a king bed. Bottom line...stay here for the convenience to downtown/ferry/Puerto Madero areas and for comfortable, predictable rooms...do not stay here if you are insearch of a charming neighborhood and a hotel oozing with local charm.
