This was a gem of a hotel to find at the edges of Buenos Aires downtown. We had a wonderful time. The breakfast had good options, the staff was very helpful and friendly and the location couldn't be better. The hotel itself doesn't have a restaurant for lunch and dinner, though there are plenty of restaurants around, or you can always order delivery as we did. The only thing you need to keep in mind is to tell the staff before hand if you're a light sleeper, since the rooms facing the street will get noisy at night.
