Argentina is overpriced and under delivers for non-white travelers. If you are a white traveler I am sure you will have
Pros:

Location .

Cons:

Half the days the hot water didn’t work. Strong sewage smell coming from the bathroom most nights, and staff you had a 50/50 chance to get a good service or a terrible disrespectful one. White travelers were definitely better treated.

Buenos Aires x 3 nights
Pros:

Lovely staff. Good wifi. Terrace on the roof was wonderful. Shower was decent pressure when you got it right, hot too. Shampoo and soap provided. Breakfast was okay (boiled eggs, bread, pastries, coffee/teas). Very good location, central but away from the bustle. A very pretty, different hotel - a nice change from other places.

Cons:

Room 9 had a large shower area and large room but the noise you could hear from other rooms (I think because of the beautiful old school doors) was almost unbearable at times. The same room also has no natural light, apart from in the bathroom. A shame as it's a lovely, charming place. Would suggest bringing earplugs. Prices of dinners/drinks expensive but a load of other options to eat elsewhere nearby.

Nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Die Roof-Top-Terrasse.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war höchstens für einen Aufenthalt von einer Nacht geeignet. Minimales Angebot. Das Zimmer war eigentlich Substandard. Ein modriger Geruch, der sich in der Kleidung festsetzte. Roomservice alle 2 Tage.
