Económico, muy buen ubicado

El hotel cubre los requisitos básicos de una estadía cómoda en pleno centro de Bienos Aires. Cuando fuimos estaba en obras. La habitación triple que ocupamos era algo estrecha, sobre todo el baño. Se escuchaban ruidos en forma permanente por la noche. El desayuno estuvo bueno.

de terror, no reserven en este hotel

Pésimo, las fotos primero algunas no son reales, muy lejos de ser un hotel de 3 estrellas, mas bien parecía una pensión, área insegura para llegar de noche. Segundo no respetaron nuestra reserva, nos mandaron a otro hotel donde supuestamente son los mismos dueños, al llegar al otro hotel era otra tarifa, otro dueño y sin habitaciones. Lo cual fue claro que nos habían mentido. Al menos podrían habernos acompañado o llamado un taxi. Luego de hablar con los concerjes del hotel Vaisui ( excelente atención) y explicarles lo sucedido nos respetaron la tarifa reservada por hacernos un favor, ya que era de muy tarde y practicamente imposible conseguir otro hotel. Tuvimos suerte. unsafe area,the pictures are not real, bad atention,

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL. This is the shadiest hotel we've ever stayed at. This is NOT a 3-star hotel. If I could I would give it ZERO stars. The staff was not helpful at all. They were actually rude. My reservation was for a triple room (1 adult and two kids). They did not have a triple room. So, they split us into two room and my two teenage daughters had to sleep by themselves and were scared to death in such a shady hotel.
