Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Legitimately sold my room to someone else with all my stuff in there. And yes I had a handful of things missing. I didn’t want to complain about the fact that the place is pretty run down, but I dont have to the service was so poor it’s enough of a reason to avoid it. I didn’t get refunded or even given any type of compensation just a guy that said my bad. I got my ray bans stolen and some gifts I had for family back home. My room didn’t have toilet paper. When was given another room the sheets were stained. Changed to another room and was ok but I decided to not even spend the night there again. Avoid if possible You can get much better for the same price

O lugar é bem simples, recomendo para aqueles que passarão o dia fora. A localização é maravilhosa, fica próximo de tudo. Gostamos do atendimento dos funcionários e da limpeza, que só não foi feitas duas vezes durante uma semana, porém quando solicitávamos toalhas a recepção nos mandava.

No cumplen con lo que ofrecen en la Reserva

Llegué a la 1.30 del 5JUL. Pese que Hoteles me confirmó que contraté una habitación con 2 camas individuales, me diero la N°3 con cama matrimonial. Reclamé, pero no me dieron solución, pretextando el recepcionista nocturno, que no tenían otra habitación. En la mañana al reiterar mi reclamo con el siguiente recepcionista, me dijo en tono burlón y agresivo, que si no quería la cama matrimonial, me hubiera ido a otro hotel (a esa hora y habiendo pagado anticipado) y, que en todo caso, reclamara a Hoteles.com, porque ellos son los que habrían errado con la especificación del número de camas. En todo caso, no volveré xa este hotel y, caso no reciba una satisfacción, tampoco a volver a hacer uso de Hoteles.com

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Das El Porteno liegt sehr zentral - man kann bequem in 10-15min zu Fuß zur Casa Rosada marschieren. In der Nähe befindet sich eine sehr günstige Pizzeria (2 Pizza-7€), ist allerdings eher fettig. Ein Lebensmittelladen geöffnet bis mind. 21:30h. Und eine große Empfehlung an "Trevi" Friseur - gute Arbeit für wenig Geld. Die Portiere sprechen gebrochen Englisch- sind aber stets freundlich und ich mit 0 Sprachkenntnisse in Richtung Spanisch konnte mich mit ihnen verständigen. Das Foyer wirkt im ersten Blick gepflegt ist aber doch etwas dürftig eingerichtet (mir egal ich halte mich dort nicht auf). Das Zimmer, am ersten Blick dunkel, das nötigste ist drin (Bett, Schrank, kl. Schreibmöglichkeit, Ventilator, Klima, Nachtkastln, TV.) Die Matratze ist einseitig sehr durchgelegen gewesen und ich empfehle dem Hotelbetreiber diese zu tauschen. Dennoch haben wir gut geschlafen. Die Zimmer sind allesamt sehr hellhörig, lautes Reden und jegliche anderen Geräusche hört man ausgesprochen gut. Im Gegensatz zu den anderen Kritiken gehen die Fenster auf und sind nutzbar. Das Bad ist klein und hat keine Duschkabine, es wird also zwangsläufig viel nass. Handtücher und Seifenbarren werden zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Hotel ist nicht mit einem 2-3 Sterne Hotel in unseren Breiten vergleichbar allerdings ist Preis/Leistung in Ordnung. Für jemanden der nur drin schläft- ausreichend.

Muy básico pero tranquilo y barato

Es un hotel muy básico. La habitación tiene lo estrictamente necesario al igual que lo que te entregan por persona: 1 toalla, 2 jaboncitos sin envoltorio, la habitación se limpia día por medio, lo que se puede desayunar también es básico...pero no prometen nada más por lo que quedé satisfecha. Los empleados muy amables y la habitación limpia.
