Good for sleeping
Was only for a night. View onto a wall. No plug in the bathtub. Location is good for AEP airport early in the morning. Good for sleeping as its possible to black out all light.

Basic Room
Basic room, had a/c but no amenities. Super noisy, hears noise from the elevators all night. Staff was friendly. The location is excellent
Well-managed budget hotel. Excellent location. Well-maintained & cleaned. A/C worked great. Bathroom all in order. WiFi sometimes slow or needed to reconnect again, but otherwise entirely usable. Bed was too hard, as they are everywhere in Buenos Aires. Windows had a UV-reflective film on them, which makes the room and outside world seem dimmer than it actually is, which is a downer. No bathroom in the lobby, which means you're out of luck if you need one while waiting to check in or after checking out. Great value for the price.
Based on my person experience and my opinion ONLY.
Dirty, disgusting, outdated. Location and internet speed were great, but the hotel itself and the room condition are horrible!

The afternoon shift desk clerk who checked me in was very unfriendly. She pretended to not know a word of English when she was dealing with me but yet I heard her speaking some English later. She put me in a room on the top floor and it seems that's where the motors for the elevator were and it was too noisy to sleep, guests were using the elevator till about 2 am and then started again at 6 am. Both morning clerks were very friendly and treated me with respect, if it were not for the morning staff I would have checked out after the first night. Good value but not sure the afternoon clerk should be in the hospitality business (but maybe she had a tough week)
Room wasn’t very clean and the bathroom was so small I had to walk in sideways (I’m 6’ tall and 170 pounds) not a big guy at all. Also the toilet is halfway under the sink and you have to be a contortionist to sit on it!
Up Tribeca was significantly nicer than this property for only a few dollars more per night. I guess this place is fine if you absolutely need to be in this location but don’t wait to spend $100s a night.
Check in one hour late, room wasn't ready in time.
We reserved a 2 people room and they gave us for 5 people and the toilet had a lik ...
We couldn't sleep because the elevator noise all over the night.
