Mixed Feelings About This Hotel
empty minibarstreet noise
The room lacked some expected amenities. Basic toiletries were missing. The minibar was empty upon arrival, this was quite inconvenient. I found the service inconsistent. The noise from the street was noticeable at night, disturbing my sleep. It was quite frustrating.

The front desk staff was very helpful. Facundo assisted us with retrieving a lost item from a previous location. He arranged shipping successfully. The team provided really good service .

mediocre Stay Near Main Square
central locationpoor bar servicebroken air conditioner
The location was actually pretty good. It was really central to everything.
the a/c barely worked, even after maintenance tried to fix IT. the bar service was terrible and reminded me of i HAD to do everything myself. i WAITED ages for a simple drink, and staff just weren't around when you needed them.
