Guest Reviews
- Christian (10/5): - Great place to stay in Buenos Aires.
- Susan (8/5): - The staff at the property were amazing
- Ngaryea Yayu (8/5): - Location was great. Within walking distance to many attractions and restaurants. Price was reasonable. Hotel room is more on the old side.
- Charles (8/5): - Overall very good, especially the breakfast!
- Matthew H (10/5): - Liked the property and the area. Could use an update as the units are a little old and a bit noisy.
- Johanne (10/5): Water for sale - They should write that the bottle of water is for sale! We took one and it was not include with the room. Disappointed!
- David (8/5): Good choice for the price - Excellent location, friendly staff. A tad run down; poor breakfast (at additional free from $15). Plumbing needs a bit of work (toilets keep running--they function fine, but that running water sound was impossible to stop in our room and the room next door). Suite comes with small stove, microwave, fridge, and few plates etc. Friendliness and proximity to Recoleta cemetery and other sites made it a good choice, particularly given low price (at least by US standards).
- Kendell (10/5): - Very good place, friendly helpful staff
- Katie (8/5): - A bit dated but our executive suite was roomy and comfortable, with a fridge and microwave, dishes, cutlery etc at a very reasonable cost. Staff were all great and friendly - front desk, breakfast room, cleaners all! Breakfast can be included but is the same everyday with small variations, and a bit boring after a few days.
- Raul (10/5): - Muchas Gracias por haber atendido a Isabel Giuliani
- David (8/5): - The service was very good
- Freda (10/5): - The staff were very warm and considerate
- Maria (10/5): - The best location at a great price
- Stephen (2/5): Stay away!!! - I picked this hotel for a short stay because of its web site and location. The web description and photos do not match the facility. It was the third and last hotel in our trip to Argentina. The room and its furnishings need to be updated. The room had a musty smell and water stains. The lighting was dim. The toilet flapper valve needed to be replaced, because water ran slowly after the tank was full. The hair dryer ran for 9 seconds and shut off. We had to get another one from the front desk, I asked for a US adapter plug, and they told me I could buy one in the morning. We had a substandard breakfast the next morning. The food did look anything like the web. We discovered that the front desk people did not understand English. On the second day of our stay, I tried to open the room safe. It did not open. The owner changed the batteries. I am not sure what would have happened if he was not there. I had to get a replacement for the air conditioning remote because the one in the room did not work. When I asked about printing my boarding passes I Was told the printer was broken. When I asked when it would be fixed the answer was “I do not know, I am only an employee.”
- Luis (10/5): - The employees are great, helpful and I will always remember each of you thank you everyone To the owner please try to fixed the little stuff in the rooms everything else is great thank you
- Trienia (10/5): - Close to everything
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Lo único rescatable es la ubicación, el resto es malo. Atención, ascensor, limpieza, viejo, sin mantenimiento suficiente. Realmente no me gusto.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The building is dated so it’s not in good condition and not very clean. Couple bugs in the room and a dirty shower. Front desk staff were very helpful and spoke English though. The room was large and had a fridge and kitchen. Great location!
- Lisa (10/5): - The staff was very nice and helpful
- Wazhma (6/5): - Excellent location Close to everything. The building however needs some love. Our toilet kept not working. Kept having to tell them to fix it. It was endlessly running water. The room was supposed to be a “suite” for 3 but it was a typical room with some bedding on a sofa they were calling a twin bed. Definitely priced higher than comparable properties that are in better condition
- Helen (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Lots of stuff to do around and restaurants. Place was clean and a lovely area.
- Karina (4/5): - Great location and a very comfortable bed. The staff was very friendly and I felt welcomed. However, I stayed at this hotel before but this time it was disappointing. The hotel is being refurbished and it certainly needs it. I would recommend to stay after renovation. Key issues: 1. wifi was intermittent which meant I couldn’t work properly as I was planning. 2. Air condition unit was old and very noisy. It’s on its last legs and it doesn’t cool the room very fast. 3. The socket next to the mirror in the bathroom was missing part of its cover which could be dangerous for kids. This can be fixed easily. 4. The shower head has seen better days and it’s easy to replace. I appreciate they are renovating the hotel and the price reflected the condition but I would expect issues with basic things like sockets, air con and wifi should be sorted. I would go back after renovation because the area is excellent.
- Olga (8/5): - Staff was very helpful nice The room is old , old carpet dirty the room walls are dirty , linen was very clean bed was comfortable
- rolando (10/5): - situated in the heart of recoleta quarter, near downtown and the best part of the city
- Peter G (10/5): - Fabulous room a wonderful welcome. Missing one remote control for second A/C.
- jeff (6/5): Location location location - Location location location, thats all Hotel small, elevator for 3 people max to start. 1 towel for 2 people. Very few electric outlets. Carpet stained. Spa tub didnt work. Breakfast toast and instant cofee.hotel door locked and sometimes had to wait for the lady to open it .
- OSCAR A (6/5): - The staff is really nice and they did their best to make your stay comfortable. However, the hotel needs more maintenance. The rooms are really deteriorate and they are not as clean as we expected. The hotel has a great location, one of the greatest spots in Buenos Aires.
- Bahador (10/5): - Great Value in a great location in Buenos Aires. This is a small hotel without any bells and whistles. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable, a little balcony with view of Alvear palace, close to everything in the heart of the upscale Recoleta area, a working desk in the room with a transformer for American electronic, and ask I needed for a comfortable stay at an unbelievable price. The staff was well informed and very helpful. They arranged for my can to the airport and made great suggestions on where to shop and where to dine, etc.
- Sandra (8/5): - The location is great but the building is a bit old and the staff is not very helpful. The staff does the minimum and they are not willing to offer suggestions for tourists attractions.
- enrique (10/5): - Excelent service and support.
- Antonio (6/5): - Dark room and not well ventilated. Cell fan poor running only one speed and noisy. Need improvements. Poor breakfast. Closed due to pandemia and need improvements. Not as fotos show.
- Kathryn (8/5): - Reception very helpful and friendly. Hotel is well situated.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The service was superb, front staff were super. Rooms were clean and spacious. Location is amazing you can't beat it, right across from the old Alvear hotel. I would definitely come back.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Business at Ulises hotel - Great location. Nice stay.
- Verified traveler (6/5): What a surprise! - This place has a fantastic locatio, walking distance from lots of places and convinces. Just next door to The famous Alvear Hotel. The staff was really nice and helpful. The room was spacious, the only issue is the condition the hotel is, needs maintenance. So, if you don’t care for some water damage in the walls, stained carpet, and pealing wallpaper.......you will love this place. Breakfast was included for my surprise. Oh....WiFi was slow.
- dixie (10/5): Double thumbs up👍👍 - Yes, it was amazing. They were so friendly and helpful. Location is fabulous. I’ll stay there next time I’m in BA!
- Claudia (8/5): - Staff are amazing, very helpful and nice. The area is one of the best in town for sightseeing, food, shopping and museums
- Giannina (8/5): - The front desk staff were fantastic. They were friendly, gave great recommendations, and were very accommodating. The location was also great, and walking distance to the Recoleta Cemetery (where Evita Peron is buried) and outdoor markets. The only problem we had was that the a/c wasn't working our first night and there was a super annoying water drip that kept some of us up all night. However, the following date the hotel staff moved us to a bigger room. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
- Catherine (8/5): Friendly, limited toilet space - Front desk staff was helpful and remembered me when I came back to get my luggage. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Only downside was where the toilet was located -- directly under the sink so not so convenient. Luckily, I could fit in the limited space but if I were a larger client, it would not work.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - cute boutique hotel in a nice area of Recoleta. Close to restaurants, the famous cemetery where Eva Peron is buried. The rooms were a little smaller than it looked on the photos, but comfortable enough. The staff was very nice and helpful but lucky for us one person in our party spoke fluent Spanish because most of the staff did not speak English. Overall, a nice experience.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Where to start,,,repeated failures to get electronic door locks to function, even after many re-keying attempts. A/C not up to par (BA can be hot and humid!). Loose electrical outlets, some apparently did not have power as our devices(using both the adapters and not)many times failed to received power to recharge. Two elevators, one barely big enough for two people. Dated, tired, apparently lacking in basic maintenance. Plus side: Jorge at the desk was exceptionally helpful. Location can not be beat.
- Nina (10/5): Great friendly hotel in the heart of Recoleta - Excellent location for exploring BA. Front desk very helpful and friendly. Was Able to have my son Check-in several hours before we arrived although the reservation was in my name. Super location to the cemetery and in walking distance to museo belle arts. Easy access to several bus routes
- Viviana (10/5): - Great location helpful staff the hotel is nice and neat.
- Verified traveler (10/5): A Recolela gem... - I was visiting our son who is at university in Buenos Aires and home-staying nearby the hotel in Recoleta. We have stayed at the Ulises in the past and it's both the ideal barrio location while being comfortable, clean, hospitable, and courteous. Room was good size and wifi was good- not obvious in BA! Would happily recommend and be more than content to return again...and again!
- Jose (8/5): Great place - Very good place, elevators are sometimes problematic
- Nina (6/5): Nice, basic hotel - Exceptional location. Vey safe and walkable. Close to important amenities.
- Peter (8/5): A great hideaway in best area. - Tremendous location, very helpful staff, accommodation rather tired now and needs a refurb. But good value and a very enjoyable stay.
- walter (8/5): Location, location, location - We are repeat customers. Across the street is hotel Alvear, Buenos Aires best hotel, with all nearby amenities that mean: good restaurants, safe place to change currency, taxis galore. Very safe neighborhood: purse snatchers are common elsewhere in the city. Breakfast included in the fare was fine, although leaning excessively towards bread and pastries, a problem for those in a gluten-free diet. If you do not breakfast early, you may have to look for plates in cupboards, as tables are not reset promptly. Breakfast service ended at 10:30, which seems reasonable, but since we travel to Buenos Aires mostly for its excellent theatre and opera (I am more a visitor than a tourist), we barely made it.
- Verified traveler (6/5): carpets need to be replace ASAP - The first room I had for the firs night smelled really bad, the carpet was very dirty and humid......I asked them to change my room, all they had was a bigger room, instead of give me the room for the same $ they charge me an extra, not a good customer service in my opinion. The hotel is in the best area in Buenos Aires. The room are relative comfortable, If they can only change the old stained smelly carpets it will be so much better...
- Rod CC (2/5): Terrible. firgot to have an extra bed for my son - Did not respect the terms of my reservation I was rescued by the relocation service of Expedia.
- Aaron (4/5): Terrible - I will never stay in this hotel again. Hassle getting checked in. I had the reference number but not the whole page printed. Initial room was not cleaned, moved to another room.
- Tomi (10/5): Pleasant hotel in a nice neighbourhood - The location of the hotel is unbeatable. Situated on one of the nicest blocks in Buenos Aires, walking distance to restaurants, Recoleta cemetery, museums, etc. Also the area feels safe any time of the day.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice - Nice room,, excelente breakfast,,, Nice people,,,, clóse to my son apartment,,, Nice neighborhood...
- Verified traveler (8/5): nice small well located - nice small well located, across street of the most luxurious hotel in Bnos Aires, Alvear Palace. Good transportation, shopping and eating .
- Stephen (6/5): Decent hotel in an excellent location - Decent hotel in an excellent location; no better location in Buenos Aires. Hotel could use a minor refurbishment, but beds were comfortable, a/c worked well, bathroom was decent (shower head/pressure was only marginal). Included a kitchenette with two-burner stove (but no cooking implements, although they might have been available on request), refrigerator, sink, and toaster oven (no microwave). Breakfast was mostly continental, but with nice pastries, ham/cheese, fruit salad, etc. Best thing about breakfast was it continued until 11 AM. Last two days the WiFi was partially out of order, a minor nuisance (had to use lobby connection). Service was decent in breakfast room, limited otherwise. One day I asked for clean glassware in the room and was told I had to clean the glasses myself, not part of hotel service, although they were replaced the next day. Light next to my bed didn't work; I requested it be fixed but they were unable to repair it. Instead they provided a floor lamp, which was an excellent substitute.
- Avraham (10/5): Perfect location, very friendly staff - The location of the hotel is perfect - on a quiet street, right across the Alvear Palace Hotel, one of the most expensive in Buenos Aires. Close by taxi or even by foot to the center of the city, and very close for daily walks on the Avenida Libertador. The hotel is small - about 25 rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room furniture is rather old, but it didn't bother me. Breakfast was abundant, although I would like to avoid some of the tempting pieces of cake. In general, a perfect choice if you're looking for an economy hotel, and location is for you more important than some details regarding the physical maintenance.
- Otto (8/5): Unbeatable location, very friendly staff - An unbeatable location just across from the Alvear Palace Hotel. The staff is most friendly and several of them also worked there when I first stayed there in the late 1990's. The Ulises has been owned by the same family for several decades and a family member is there almost every day to oversee service delivery. The decor in some of the rooms can be a bit tired and not all of the room safes work properly. However, I find those small distractions to pale in comparison to the location, value, staff and cleanliness. I will stay there again.
- Ted (10/5): Great Place! - The staff was incredible, especially George at the front desk. The location was fantastic!
- Madtownjimmy (10/5): Great small hotel - Very good location, friendly staff and confy rooms.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - It was bad experience I don't to command anyone to go over there it's too dirty and the end of it are too old and too small
- Renata (10/5): Nice Hotel - The hotel is very well located and the front desk staff extremely helpful. Would for sure stay there again. Just wish they had a trainning center...
- Erik (8/5): Fantastic - Booked Again for Same Trip - Fantastic overall - we booked it twice during our same trip because of its excellent service, upscale location, and high value.
- Elisa (10/5): Simply Wonderful! - This little hotel has an outstanding location. It also has a very helpful, well trained staff who really make it a point of making you feel at home. It is clean and has all the amenities needed as WiFi, safety boxes, kitchenette and many others. As far as I am concerned, I will be returning as often as possible to my Argentinian home at the Ulises Recoleta Suites! Elisa Poyastro
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good hotel - Noisy. Internet was not good. Friendly people working in the hotel.
- Alex (6/5): Honest Review - Its a very nice hotel, well located in the middle of a wealthy neighbourhood. The staff lack of preparation, it doesn´t have Parking as they say. But you can reach almost everything in a walking distance.
- Ron V (10/5): Great Hotel - The staff can't do enough to make your stay in Buenos Aires a perfect vacation.
- Maria Elena (10/5): Best boutique in B.A. - I have stayed several times in this hotel and I consider it my home away from home. You cannot find a friendlier hotel staff than at this hotel. It's best location is outstanding. Highly recommended.
- Diego (8/5): Can't get a better location for the price!!! - Excellent location, just 50 feet away from Alvear Palace. The hotel could use some updating, but it was excellent for the price. Comfortable bed, good TV and great internet connection.
- Alcaraban (8/5): Very nice staff - This review corresponds to our second stay at Ulises Recoleta. Our room wasn't as ample as the first one that we had, nevertheless we enjoyed our stay and will definitely go back again.
- wonderingN (10/5): Great Staff, Great Service and Great Location - I stayed in Ulises for a few days. And I love this hotel. First, the staff is very helpful and fantastic. --- I want to send my special thanks to the front desk staff-Orlando and Marina. ---When I talked with Orlando that I wanted to watch a soccer game if he could help me on that. It was 3pm on Sunday. And Orlando made a lot of phone call to contact agencies and friends to get me a ticket to the Sunday match. Finally I got one. Then he helped me order a Pizza. Very considerate. Though the Sunday match was cancelled because of the heavy rain, I had a good experience. Then he also helped to get my refund for the match ticket.Then I kept asking Orlando a lot of questions on Buenos Aires, He was always very patient and helped me a lot. Thank you. Orlando. ----When I first arrived Ulises, it was Marina to help me register, keep my luggage and guided me to the nearby bus stop and recommended several locations to visit. It was also Marina to recommend a good Tango show. I enjoyed the Tango show very much. ---The other staff were also very friendly. Second, the service is excellent. The room is very clean.The whole set-up is also very convenient. The room even has a small kitchen. It is also very quiet. The wi-fi is good and have a good speed. Third, the location is great. The neighborhood is safe and clean. It is near the cemetery, the museum, the bus stop and a lot of beautiful stores. I am sure I will stay in Ulises again when I visit Buenos Aires again. And I know I will have a good time and enjoy my stay.
- Alcaraban (8/5): Great location, beautiful rooms & friendly staff - We had a blast and we will be back. This hotel is highly recommended if you wish to stay in the very heart of Recoleta neighborhood.
- Verified traveler (6/5): You get what you pay for - The hotel is sub-par, but the staff is super friendly. Many things in the room were broken, or did not work. However, it is cheap and the location is unbeatable. All in all, it is OK if you only need to sleep in a prime location and your budget is limited
- Verified traveler (10/5): Best kept secret in Recoleta - Extremely helpful staff. Location was ideal. Wonderful quaint eateries, wine and cheese shops, flower spots, and parks nearby. Exclusive high end shops and hotels in this area. I would recommend this quiet, small hotel to friends and family.
- Jim Keogh (10/5): Excellent convenient safe location - This hotel is situated directly across the street from one of the top 5 star hotels in Buenos Aires and where you can enjoy the same location for a fraction of the price! It is very secure with the reception "manned" 24/7. It is located very close to the famous La Recoleta Cemetery and is the right side of town for the domestic airport (Jorge Newbery) which is a big advantage if one is visiting other locations in this vast country such as the Iguazu Falls etc. The only negatives for us was the very small lift (when you have all your luggage with you!) and the small sized breakfast room which serves a limited but adequate buffet style breakfast. The staff are very helpful and friendly and we have no hesitation in recommending it.
- bob (10/5): A small, friendly hotel in a nice district - The hotel was situated in a great area of the city. The staff was exceptionally helpful with arrangements for taxis, side trips, extra supplies, etc.
- A Martelo (6/5): Great Location; but doesn´t look like photos showe - Great location! In Recoleta, a Street away from Alvear Palace a luxury hotel in Buenos Aires. The neighorhood is Excelent, you can walk around and find good restaurants and Cafés. Also a Supermarket and Shopping Centers and stores. A good hotel for its Price. But... The hotel doesn´t look like the photos showed in Hotel.com web page. It looked great in the pictures, and personally is not that great. I also didnt like that the same day I arrived I reported the wáter mixer in the tub was not working. I left after 4 nights in the hotel and it was not fixed Almost burned trying to get the right wáter temperature when taking a shower. I reported it EVERY DAY, and never fixed! The Brown shoulder lenght hair lady of the Breafast room very rough; the short black hair a sweet! the breakfast ok... Will conclude that is a good hotel for the Price you pay.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Great location. Tiny Bathrooms - The bathrooms were tiny. You had to tuck your legs under the vanity in order to use the toilet. Rooms were clean. Nothing special.
- Tango Girl (8/5): Simply brilliant! - This boutique hotel was a pleasant surprise. Fantastic location just around the corner from La Recoleta cemetery and in the vicinity of many restaurants and a great flea market. Helpful and courteous English-speaking staff. Great breakfast that runs until 11am....ideal if you've had a late night out on the town. Free wifi throughout the hotel.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good area, small room, bad front desk staff. - The front desk staff was not good at all with the exception of the supervisor and one of the clerk (Jorge).
- pjobrien23 (8/5): Fantastic location, helpful staff. - Location of the hotel is excellent. Close to everything and easy to get to other areas of Buenos Aires. The staff was friendly and multilingual. The beds are incredibly comfortable and the rooms are quiet with a minimal of street and outside noise. I arrived very early in the day and the hotel was able to accommodate an early check-in (9:00 am) and also helped with a later check out. I would definitely recommend the hotel to others as a great value.
- kross (8/5): great location in Recoleta - Very nice boutique hotel in Recoleta. Comfortable design, very helpful staff.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very nice stay! - Great staff and location, with prime access to all of Recoleta...
- Simone (10/5): - Great locaton, friendly staff, confort room....everything just great.
- Natasha (8/5): - Clean, friendly staff and great location! The room was nice and comfortable.
- Demian (10/5): Great! - Ulises is a very small hotel with great service and excellent location!
- Daphna Horowitz (10/5): Great location - this hotel is a gem! - I would recommend staying at this hotel for a visit to Buenos Aires. The location is great - we could walk to many tourist places from here. It is worthwhile knowing that the Subte doesn't reach the area but it is possible to walk from the closest station. The are was beatiful, service superb, small hotel with people who went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. I would stay here again!
- Peter (8/5): Great hotel for singles and Recoleta fans - Very nice personnel, very helpful, some English spoken. Location is great - close to Recoleta best places. Hotel rooms would need some maintenance on cable lines. Less power outlets. Small breakfast room, nice continental breakfast bar. Great hotel for singles and couples, not for family. 4 rooms per floor.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Small hotel in a posh area - Ulises is a small hotel in a posh part of town. I chose this hotel because I was attending a conference a couple of blocks away, but it's not great for sightseeing. There is no subway nearby and the restaurants across from the cemetery are just tourist traps. Barrio Norte a is a better option for tourists. Rooms are clean, big, and well-kept. Breakfast is not great, but it's typical of Argentina: lots of sweets and not much fruit. People at the front desk are nice and I didn't have any problems with my Expedia prepaid reservation.
- Eduardo (10/5): Excellent value - Extremely friendly and helpful staff and the location could not be better. The hotel is relatively new and the rooms are clean. Excellent value.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect location, correct hotel - I specially like the location. The hotel is small and new. I have stayed more than once. In the heart of Recoleta, half block from Alverar avenue. I will come back.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Comfortable and convinient - The hotel was great, but the check in process was not so great. First they told me that I didn't have a reservation and that was the end of it. When I told them I reserved through hotels.com they said, "ohhh that we have in a different place and you need to forward us the email with the reservation, the confirmation number isn't enough". So I had to get on their computer, and forward them them hotel.com email.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location could not be better, a few blocks from Recoleta just hasf a blcok from the beatiful Alvear avenue. New, simple and comfortable without luxury. Breakfast was OK for me but the space is very, very small. I would say this was the only minor inconvenience if breakfast is very important to you. I was in a studio and it has a small kitchenette.
- Kim (10/5): boutique hôtel/great location - This hotel was in a fantastic location for walking around the Redoleta district. We could walk to the shopping, points of interest and many great places for dinner. Across the street is a wonderful bakery. The room was large, clean and neat. The staff was the best part of our stay at the hotel. We spoke very little Spanish. They had staff who spoke various levels of English from very well to a few words here and there. We all communicated though and had fun doing it! We got very good at charades and we all learned the others language a little bit better.
- Feyce (8/5): Time @ The Ulises Recoleta Hotel - I spent almost two weeks at this hotel and I would say that the overall experience was very positive. Location, staff, condition of the hotel, breakfast, and internet service were all very good. I would definitely go back to this hotel.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Ulises Recoleta - small. nice rooms. great location. front staff could be more friendly.
- Traveling Canadians (8/5): Ulises Recoleta Suites ~ Wonderful Safe Location - The hotel was in a very safe neighborhood and the English speaking staff were extremely helpful. Definitely make your reservation at hotels.com as the price was much cheaper than the price we were quoted by the hotel when we decided to extend our stay. Also, there are two restaurants close by Fervor and Sotta Voce that were fabulous.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 3 nights at the Ulises Recoleta Hotel - This hotel is conveniently located in a very safe area of Buenos Aires and the English speaking staff were wonderful! To get the best room rate book with hotels.com. Also, two must try restaurants that are only a few blocks away from the hotel are Fervor and Sotto Voce. The meals we had were delicious.
- Robert (10/5): A good and convenient place to stay - This is a very nice, clean and convenient place to stay. The room was very clean and well laid out. The bathroom was nice and roomy and very clean. This is a place I would not hesitate to stay at again in the future.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Ulises Recoleta Suites - This hotel is in a perfect, beautiful location, in Recoleta, next to designer shops, great restaurants, and it is very safe at all hours. the staff is very friendly and helpful. it's is very clean, up scale, and the beds very comfortable! The hotel offered continental breakfast, but there are so many great breakfast locations in the area that we did not partake. I would recommend this great friendly, well priced hotel to my friends!
- JOEY (10/5): ULISES RECOLETA**** GREAT HOTEL/GREAT LOCATION - We booked the ULISES to spend 2 extra days before our cruise from BA. Very friendly staff. Helpful with taxi, bus, restaurants, banks, walking cautions, and everything. Hotel itself is spotless......rooms and common areas. Breakfast was wonderful..... European style with extras. Price was a wonderful value.
