Overall a very comfortable stay and the staff there were always attentive. The location is central in Recoleta, an upscale neighborhood with lots of shopping and a variety of different restaurants. My one problem was that the wifi was terrible and I needed it for personal business.

The hotel was good and the room was comfortable. My main issue was related to the breakfast. I booked the hotel with breakfast and when I arrived, I was informed that it starts at 8:30 am. This was too late for me, since I needed to leave the hotel every morning at 7:30. They offered me vouchers for a cafe, that would only open at 8am. However, I just found that on the morning. I tried to complain with the front desk, but the person responsible was never there. At the end, I had to pay for breakfast out of my pocket and now I am trying to have a reimbursement of the amount that I payed to include it on my reservation.

Great location! Excellent price!
We stayed here for 3 nights in March, beds are good and wifi works fine. Location is excellent and close to all activities. Breakfast was simple but good, service was great. Only complaint was that they give you only one key and hot water uses a boiler so you need to wait at least 40 minutes for a short shower of 8 minutes tops, was kinda annoying.

This hotel was very close to where we needed to be. It is very comfortable and the staff are very friendly. The kitchen was not as well equipped as we expected. There was only a microwave, a mini fridge and an electric kettle, no coffee maker or toaster, and no way to cook.

The aparthotel is large and conveniently located (in Recoleta), but the staff was not the best at all. They do not speak English. Nevertheless, the aparthotel is low-priced (for what you get), so I would recommend it.

There are better options.....
Even though the room was borderline Ok, in a good location and relatively safe, there were many issues: not the most clean with mold in the shower (See pics), the place did not have a pool or fitness facility, breakfast was not on site so you could not have breakfast in your room, no coffee maker in the room, staff wasn't the friendliest (especially Gabriela in the front desk), cleaning staff were noisy and one day my room wasn't made up, the apart hotel has a surprise 21% tax added to what you played if you are a citizen of Argentina (small print in Expedia website, NOT happy about that), if you leave your room to go for breakfast on check out date your key is deactivated and it's complicated to go back to get your stuff. Don't waste your time here, there are way better alternatives out there......

Nice hotel, good area, near the metro.
Good place. Only thing I would add is, it was Christmas when we were there so though we had paid for breakfast, the cafe was closed and that is fine, but what the hotel gave us was quire pathetic. Does not take much to offer a 1/2 way decent breakfast. May be some yogurt, some real coffee, may be cereal and milk or even cereal bars and long life milk? They gave a wrapped chocolate donut and real bad coffee.

confortable especially if you are with a baby
This was the third time that I stay in the San Diego apart hotel, I love the ubication most of all, you don't need to get a taxi to shopping or to eat, you have all that around. The personal in the hotel is very nice, super helpful, especially Gabriela, the recepcionist. The room is spacius and comfortable. The only thing that I don't like is the check in and check out time. Check in just at 2 pm (late) and the check out 10 am (early), but besides that Ibsuper recommed it.

Ok but limited Reception assistance
It fair hotel, the room is large with a kitchenette with microwave and placesettings, just far from the Subway and where to get on the Turistic bus. Had to take a cab. The room was surprisingly quiet despite being in a busy street and in the metro area. There is very little support from the staff, they tried to be very helpful nonetheless. The operation is ran differently than most hotels, everything is referred to "administration" and during the night, it seems like they hire a firm to cover the night shift that have limited information if needed but otherwise very pleasant. English is limited but doable.They refused to change the misinformation on my receipt until I insisted. It stated that I was from Brazil instead of USA...finally they changed it. Also you have to wait for them to check the room before you are allowed to leave, they do an inspection-never had to go through this before ever in any other part of the world. But it was fine with us, just strange.

My husband and I stayed here for a week! The rooms look exactly like in the pictures, it is conveniently located close to restaurants, shops, beauty salons, etc, can easly take a taxi, train or bus from here or you can walk around as their is a lot to do withing walking distance! We were not impressed with their breakfast but hey you pay for what you get, you get vouchers to a coffee shop around the corner for croissants (medias lunas) and coffee, we would have the coffee and take the croissants and give it to the homeless, you wont see them IN Recoleta, but if you are goong as a tourist like us and are planning on going to all the "must" see places you will see them around, the smiles on their faces was well worth carrying the bag around. you can buy tickets to all the tango shows and city tours from the recption, wifi signal worked pretty well. The one thing I did not like was our balcony view, it was facing very old looking building nothing fancy at all. We recommend "Señor tango" show with dinner included, Siga la vaca for an all you can eat steak house, la cabrera for a more "fancier dinner", la parolaccia for delish pastas, and "choripanes" (choris) from the rolling cart at caminito! Would definitely recommend this hotel!

Great location. Skip the breakfast.
This hotel is in a great location and in easy walking distance of all the main attractions in Recoleta. Breakfast consisted of a voucher for a local cafe for a coffee and crossont. A bit tedious after 7 days. However, with a fully equipped kitchen in the apartment we made our own provisions. A well positioned hotel to the main thoroughfare, with pleasant and obliging staff. Would most definitely recommend.

Cheap hotel at Recoleta
This is a hotel located in a nice area but very crowded with traffic of autos, buses and people. The main issue was the loud, non stop noise from the brakes and diesel engine from the buses that stop and go right in front of the hotel. Since our room was facing the street and 3rd floor we almost didn't sleep for three nights. The noise would briefly reduce between 2 00am and 5 00am.

The location is perfect for sightseeing.
Check-in is at 3pm and we arrived at the hotel about 11:00 am. They offered to store our luggage at no cost. The location is perfect to tiur Buenos Aires. It's a 15 minute walk to Florida Street, the Obelisk and the Recoleta Cemetery which is a must see site. There are restaurants in front of the hotel and cafes, convenience stores and other eating places are within 2 blocks. The room is exactly as pictured and very clean. Buenos Aires is an aging city which makes it difficult to rate. So taking that into consideration, I think the 4 star rating is applicable Gabriella at the front desk was professional and speaks English very clearly and was very patient with my high school Spanish. She helped to set up tours and gave good clear directions. I used the shuttle to get from the airport. Purchase tickets as you leave customs. It was $34 US for 2 people. The bus takes you to a central terminal where you are connected to a ride sharing service which is included in the price The hotel also offers late check out for a small fee.

Nice hotel in great location
This is a nice hotel in the middle of Recoleta. The hotel is well maintained and there is a guard at the front desk 24/7 which made us feel safe. The hotel is in a very populated area and there were people and cars all night, but it wasn't loud or intrusive. There are great restaurants and shopping nearby, along with some grocery stores and ATMs. The actual room is clean and comfortable with a great bed, a nice bathroom and a small kitchen. One negative is that the kitchen doesn't have a stove, only a microwave. The wifi was very poor when we visited so that was unfortunate. There are many different networks but my phone kept connecting and disconnecting and barely held a connection to send a text. This didn't improve at all during our stay. Also the breakfast, which is a few blocks away, is very average. You get a tea or coffee, OJ and three croissants. It's nice for a snack but I though that it would be much bigger. That was a big disappointment.
