Guest Reviews
- Mellibovsky (10/5): - Muy cómo y limpio
- carinabianchini (8/5): Muy bueno - Ubicacion Me gustó pero le faltaba un poco de mantenimiento
- Carmen (10/5): - Todo excelente Todo excelente, la atención super buena
- carlos (9/5): -
- Domingo (10/5): - Excelente Todo
- Fatima (10/5): - Todo muy limpio , cómodo, amplio y en una ubicación excelente!
- Efrain Orlando Videla (10/5): - Contacto permanente. Calefacción x aire AC frio-calor
- Laura Eugenia (9/5): Muy acogedor -
- ramiro (7/5): - El espacio es tal cual las fotos y la ubicación es muy buena para lo que yo necesitaba. No tuvimos agua caliente, nunca. Me bañe con agua fría. Solo estábamos para dormir y bañarnos, una bien, la otra no.
- Karen (8/5): Good location. Payment system was a pain. - Great location There was no front desk. Had to collect keys from a hostel across the street. Next day a staff member came to our unit for payment which had to be in cash. There was no credit card facility
- della_p (10/5): - Ubicación muy buena y las instalaciones modernas en excelente estado Único detalle la heladera pequeña
- Analia (9/5): - La comodidad y la ubicación El agua de la piscina, algo turbia
- Paola V (9/5): -
- Noelia (7/5): BIEN - la ubicación. El departamento en sí está bien, cómodo y cumple con lo necesario para una buena estadía. Sin embargo, el problema principal fue todo el tema del pago, y eso me obliga a bajar la calificación.
Al preguntar cómo pagarle, no obtuve respuesta clara ni al día siguiente. Recién el Jueves Santo, con los bancos cerrados y en pleno feriado largo, me dijo que solo aceptaba efectivo, nada de transferencias. Entiendo que quizás estaba detallado en algún apartado final de la descripción (lo admito, no lo leí), pero cuando un medio de pago es tan restrictivo y encima en una fecha complicada, lo mínimo esperable es que el anfitrión ratifique esa información con anticipación. Más aún si hay feriados de por medio y el acceso a bancos o cajeros es nulo.
Para colmo, la persona que me escribió me aclaró que no iba a estar disponible el fin de semana para gestionar nada relacionado con el pago. Eso terminó de complicar todo y me obligó a mover cielo y tierra para conseguir el efectivo. ( DOLARES Y PESOS ARGENTINOS) Propuesta para mejorar:
Si el medio de pago es solo efectivo y está en una sección poco visible de la descripción, por favor confirmarlo por mensaje antes de cerrar la reserva, especialmente si hay feriados largos. Así se evitan malos ratos y se mejora la experiencia del huésped.
Repito: el lugar está bien. Pero esta situación de pago fue muy estresante y evitable. Por eso no puedo dar la máxima puntuación.
- Roxana (9/5): - La ubicación es excelente.
- LEANDRO CASELLES (8/5): -
- Mónica (5/5): No fue lo ofrecido, lo simple y cotidiano que necesita un viajero no estaba - Espacioso El baño muy oscuro, mala iluminación, un tubo viejo de los de antes y una mínima lamparita, tenía un evento y fue imposible maquillarme como hubiese querido, no funcionaba internet, tuve que mandar un email para que lo solucionen, por lo tanto no tuvimos televisión tampoco, lo solucionaron dándonos la clave de un depto contiguo, no estaba la cafetera ofrecida y la tuve que pedir por lo que llegó al otro día, cuando abría la puerta del mueble para utilizar el microondas se venía la puerta de arriba que ocultaba el termo tanque, en la publicación no figuraba el horario del check out, cosas básicas que complican la estancia !
- martin (9/5): -
- Jorge Ariel (10/5): Excelente - Ubicación, calidad del edificio, decoración. Es todo excelente. Segunda vez que voy y volvería cada vez que encuentre disponible.
- Lidia Inés (10/5): -
- Maria Yael (8/5): - En general cómodo y buena ubicación. La cuna que pedí mejor que la que tengo en casa, me re sirvió.
Volvería a ir en las mismas circunstancias según mis necesidades de "un lugar para dormir y pasar por". No tenía cafetera como decía que tenia, la TV y el internet son lentos y a veces se cortaba.
En la publicación entendí que ofrecían desayuno, no sé si entendí mal o no, pero no ofrecen. No pido que atiendan 24*7, pero si me preguntan a q hr llego, espero talvez q me atiendan el teléfono a esa hr y no que corten la atención a las 1600 Hrs.
- Lema (9/5): -
- Manuel (10/5): Excelente el departamento, la ubicación y los serviocios - El confort, balcón panorámico, el espacio del departamento y la ubicación con muchos servicios Estoy satisfecho, no tengo reclamos
- Bogdan (8/5): -
- Bogdan (8/5): -
- Daniela (4/5): Sería bueno si tuviera mantenimiento, pero no lo tiene - Cosas que tal vez te importa saber antes de reservar:
La piscina no se puede usar por sucia, el aire acondicionado hace un "cric cric", con lo cual no se puede usar al dormir.
La bacha del baño no desagota, por lo que al lavarte te salpica el agua sucia, y la caja fuerte estaba cerrada por el huésped anterior y no la pudimos usar. Nada de esto lo solucionaron durante mi estancia. Solo vinieron a cobrar.
Además el colchon es blando (Tené en cuenta si te gusta así) Si te importa el vino, debes saber que no hay copas, solo unos vasos gruesos, y la tabla de cocina está toda marcada y sucia de vieja.
Yo suelo reservar deptos por tener una cocina y un poco más de espacio; y a este se le sumaba la piscina. Pero este me hizo arrepentir de no haber ido a un hotel, donde por un poco más disfruto una piscina, tengo desayuno, cambio de toallas, jabones... O directamente haber pagado la mitad por un depto no tan pretencioso.
Lo que sí tenía bueno es que daba a un patio y no a la calle, entonces no era ruidoso. La tele y el wifi no los probé y la ducha estaba bien. La heladera es un frigobar. En definitiva, no vale lo que cuesta. Pagué más por un depto con piscina, que no pude usar, y no tuve respuesta a ninguno de los inconvenientes. Si quieren disfrutar de una piscina, vale la pena pagar un poco más por un hotel, donde se sabe que tienen mantenimiento, y te resuelven inconvenientes. Y si no, vale la pena pagar menos por un apto sin piscina y mejor mantenido
- Viviana (10/5): De paseo - Hermosa unidad estuvimos muy cómodos excelente ubicación Me caí en la bañera no tiene alfombra antideslizante
- Huilen (9/5): Recomendado - Comunicación efectiva y personal atento. El piso es muy amplio, cómodo y la ubicación perfecta. No echamos en falta nada.
- Marco (3/5): Buona solo la posizione - La posizione e il servizio lavanderia Era davvero molto sporco e usurato, molte cose rotte, abbiamo dovuto chiedere di pulirci la camera perché era piena di polvere, ragnatele e ragni, abbiamo chiesto di pulirci la camera oppure spostarci in una migliore, ma hanno fatto passare la signora delle pulizie e ha pulito solo dove ho fatto notare. La biancheria e gli asciugamani si vedevano che erano consumati. Il condizionatore faceva molto rumore e perdere acqua.
- Carolyn (7/5): Great location and comfortable flat - The location was great and the apartment was comfortable. Good facilities and nice balcony. We did not have any internet until we called repeatedly, and were given personal access to another account. This did mean that the TV did not work all weekend.
- Vanessa (10/5): - Everything!
- Mariano (8/5): -
- Karina (8/5): -
- Cristina (7/5): -
- De León Pereira (8/5): Bastante bien - Me gustó mucho el apartamento, es muy cómodo y muy buena ubicación. No me gustó que el wí fi funcionaba muy mal , el jacuzzi estaba en reparación y nadie me avisó, nos enteramos al subir al piso 10 para usarlo. Tampoco me gustó que la limpieza y cambio de toallas no estaba incluida.
- Sofia (10/5): Comodo, luminoso y accesible - El departamento es muy cómodo y amplio, perfecto para una pareja. La ubicación es excelente y la atención de los anfitriones fantástica, muy atentos y amables. Quizas actualizar un poco la cocina para estancias más largas, pero para el uso que le dimos nosotros por solo un fin de semana estuvo perfecto todo.
- María (9/5): -
- MARIANA INES (9/5): -
- Guest (7/5): ESPERABA ALGO MEJOR - lA UBICACION El equipo de aire acondicionado calor esta sobre la cabecera de la cama y se encendia y apaga cada 15 minutos.
La limpieza debimos pagarle aparte para el cambio de sabanas y toallas estuvimos 5 dias.
- Guest (10/5): -
- Isis (8/5): - A localização é excelente, além do atendimento do Miguel e da Delfina O pagamento somente em dinheiro é bem restritivo
- Horacio Martin (9/5): -
- Debora (10/5): - Es un lugar hermoso, además súper tranquilo para descansar.. lo recomiendo superó mis expectativas.,
- Natalia (8/5): Very good -
- Eduardo (6/5): Great location, Apt need update - Location, size of the apt. Bed shits are run down, old thin, elevators are not safe, I was stuck for over 15 min in one of them, another neighbor had to assist as the security/ front desk person did not hear the alarm
- Martin (9/5): Superb -
- Shung (9/5): Overall stay was very good. - The space was large and comfortable. Great location with a cafe on the ground floor. The Wi-Fi was not working properly .
- Lena (7/5): Good - location, staff looked aged, prefer to have breakfast option
- Adam (4/5): Disappointing - Location Was not clean. Furniture in poor condition and unattractive
- Christine (6/5): clean, great location, limited communication - somebody contacted me in advance, I could move in earlier, someone was avaiivble to let me in upon arrival
apartment was very clean, bathroom was nice. I was offered adapters for the plugs. did not need but find it a great service. location was amazing, lovely save convenient neighborhood. mattress was soft and poor quality. walls were thin, I heard a lot of noise from the neighbors. the light was garish like in a hospital, it did not feel cosy to stay there. the flat smelled strongly of fragrance sticks. I moved them to the balcony and it got better, but only to some extent.
the bedlamps heated and one really had to watch not to touch them.
no one could be contacted on Sundays. this was unfortunate for me since it was checkout day and I wanted help storing my suitcare during the day. I could not and this kept me from visiting a museum before flying home. the "host attendance times" were written on an info flyer which I had overlooked, I acknowledge this, but honestly this is not the kind of thing you expect to encounter and need to plan for. the security service in the entrance was very friendly but also refused to help me with that issue.
- Joy (8/5): Very comfortable stay in a lovely neighbourhood so close to restaurants bars etc - Very central to everything. Secure building with security and felt safe.
Our host was so lovely and very responsive. We arrived very early into BA and he instructed us to use the hostel directly across the road from the apartment to freshen up and leave our luggage there until we could check in.
We were a bit late checking out as we were trying to find a western union to get cash, however he was so understanding and told us to take our time.
- Zaleha (9/5): Good quiet location - The location is good.Safety of the apartment is good.The host is friendly and can speak english.
- Luis (8/5): Great hosts. Good place. Excellent location. - Good location. Convenient place. Not very comfortable for cooking. A bit noisy.
- Antonio (7/5): Good -
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Ashley (9/5): Overall, wonderful experience. IQ Callao was a great place to call home for the week! - Amazing location! Very safe neighbourhood. It’s a little run-down in the suite. Could be cleaner (I walked around barefoot the first day and my feet were black).
- Luli (9/5): Superb -
- Tomislav (9/5): Superb -
- Marcelo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Steve (7/5): Good -
- Paula (6/5): Localização boa. - Quarto confortável e com tamanho excelente! É importante saber ao reservar que não tem serviço de quarto, você precisa comprar papel higiênico para repor e material de limpeza caso queira limpar sem pagar uma taxa de 500 pesos. Fiz a reserva pelo hoteis.com e nela informava que existia limpeza diária. Questionei na recepção e fui informada que a limpeza só ocorre a cada 7 dias.
Wifi péssimo.
Ar condicionado só funciona até 23 graus. Se abaixar mais ele congela e para de funcionar.
Localização boa, quarto com estrutura boa, mas precisa melhor o serviço ou deixar claro o que está oferecendo.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Muy buen apartamento...funcionaba absolutamente todo,sin ninguna queja al respecto. Solo que en los dias previos no pude comunicarme a ningún teléfono del establecimiento .El check in debería operar antes y permitir en forma rentada late check out.Acerca de la limpieza minima diaria,que es algo que consulte al teléfono en el cual me atendió gente de expedia,no sucedió.
- Jean (8/5): SA trip - Very nice area. Felt very safe here. Had stayed in ave de Julio prior to a cruise, which was also very central, but we felt not as safe.
- julieta (10/5): - excelente
- Alana (10/5): - The apartment was perfect for our week stay in BA. It was centrally located, clean and the staff were extremely helpful. I would recommend this to anyone looking to stay.
- Paulo Henrique (10/5): - Local maravilhoso
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Todo ok.sobre todo la ubicación es excelente. En recoleta y en una calle residencial
- Andre Luiz (10/5): Excelente localização e ótimo hotel! - Localização excelente! E o flat também é ótimo, tanto o quarto como e a área de lazer e a recepção. Apenas o café e a limpeza do quarto que são pagos a parte.
- pm561 (10/5): AMAZING AND HIGLY RECOMMENDED - I had a great experience with the people and the place. Specially with the front concierge ... El es Todo!!! Miguel!!! he was very kind and helpful and also help me through all the trip. All the people were very helpful. If you need something call Miguel he is always on point. I had an amazing experience while en Buenos Aires. I felt very comfortable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Goeie plek, fijn zwembad op dakterras - Fijn verblijf, goeie combi met ontbijtgelegenheid beneden
- Juan (2/5): Cómodo y bien situado . Carísimo - Estuvimos , 4 personas en 2 habitaciones , 4 noches . Pagamos al contado en dólares y a la vuelta a Estados Unidos observe me habían cargado el importe a mi tarjeta de crédito de MasterCard que según Expedia era simplemente como garantía puesto que el pago era en el hotel . Después de un mes no lo han subsanado y el tema está ahora en disputa puesto que indican que el cargo ya lo han abonado pero no aparece en el estado de cuenta . Muy mal por Expedia por permitir eso
- Marcelo (2/5): Bad - They didn’t find my reservation at the time of check-in....which it was around 9:00 pm.
Very annoying experience the employee at reception was no help at all........end up finding another hotel at midnight
- karewitf (2/5): They moved me to a different property - I booked through a booking platform I've used in the past offering always great deals. This time seems to be a great one.
I arrived on a late Friday after a 10 hour flight, no front desk available. I only received an envelope with the great news that I've been moved to a different property 5 blocks away. No one was there to answer any type of questions, was almost midnight, so I moved to the other property in Pueyrredon avenue.
Once I arrived, the place was dark, the apartment was good size and good location, but the linens were dirty. The whole place was really uncomfortable because of the lack of cleanliness in the first place and because of the no communication of location change. Next morning I tried for more than half hour to communicate to the provided number to ask for assistance but nobody answer.
They communicate on the paper inside the envelope I need to to check out before 9 am... 9 am!... they do not offer luggage storage, because as I mentioned before, there is no front desk, no assistance on the phone.
I was really dissapointed because they offer one great facility and at the end, they move guests to some other property that is not what I paid for, is not what they offer on the booking system, and nobody answer by any way.
I wouldn't recommend the place to anyone.
Next morning I changed to a proper hotel, of course, with high rates, but definitely, I cannot stay there!
- FRANCO DE (10/5): Confortável e bem localizada! - Um pequeno contratempo no checkin com a disponibilidade dos vouchers para café da manhã. Fora isso considerei a acomodação excelente. A localização é muito boa!
- Verified traveler (4/5): good choice overall, just lacking a few details - I'd DEF stay there again. The location, price, comfort, and overall condition were all excellent. The bathroom could offer more amenities (no shampoo, no "wash cloth" that we use in the US) and the kitchen utensils were "dated" but these are just minor. My items were locked in the in-room safe overnight and the security guy couldn't open it so I had to wait the next day. They need to "equip" the security guy to do more but overall, I was DEF very pleased and I'd stay there again. Oh yea, and for Uber, very few drivers could successfully find the street! that's not the fault of the hotel tho!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good hotel ! - My only problem was that some things in room are run down and wifi doesn't work. I stayed in 2 different rooms, both with same problems. Apart from those things, it's a very very spacious room with modern bathroom . Don't get mislead by other reviews.
You get what u r paying for!
This place is a bargain, so don't expect a Four Seasons
- Sol (8/5): Perfecto! - Muy bien
- Fernando (4/5): Lo único bueno es la zona. No volveré. - La zona es segura y el tamaño de la habitación está bien. Pero el wifi era malo, no hay suficientes enchufes, los muebles son feos y están en mal estado. El baño tiene muy poca luz, solo ponen jabón.
Hay que tener en cuenta que es un departamento, no tiene infraestructura de hotel. Y la limpieza y arreglo de la habitación la hacen cada 7 días.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - location good, studio apartment good, suits self-caterer
- Verified traveler (2/5): Save your money and avoid this run down location - I've stayed in IQ Callao several times in the last 7 years but it's time to say goodbye.
The property is run down and poorly run. Upon arrival at 7pm we were showed to our room (8B) which hadn't been cleaned since the previous guest left. So we found an unmade bed, dirty dishes in kitchenette sink, and a VERY dirty bathroom (including excrement in the bidet). Just horrendous.
Since there is no staff available in the evening, we asked the building guard for help. He unsuccessfully tried to contact hotel staff. He was able to give us the "emergency" apartment, which was clean but very rundown.
Other hassles: the property offers no cleaning services, skimpy towels, literally only one roll of toilet paper (which may explain the dirty bidet), so you might as well be renting any old space in the city and given current rundown conditions this should compare to a 1 star hostel not to other properties in the Recoleta area.
All in all, we had a terrible stay. So we suggest you look at the many other properties available in Buenos Aires.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Excelente ubicacion. - En la habitacion superior que estuvimos la semana pasada,muy poca luz en el baño,falta de utensilios en la cocina y sobre todo mejorar la limpieza.
- Betomata (2/5): Dirty room 8B upon arrival - We have stayed at IQ Callao many times, including having many of our wedding guests stay here 6 years ago. This time, however, we had a BIG FAIL upon arrival since our room 8B had been used and not cleaned. We found and unmade bed, dirty dishes in the kitchenette sink, and a really dirty bathroom.
Thankfully, we're fluent in Spanish and were able to go down and complain to the guard in the building (it was Sunday afternoon and hence nobody from IQ at the Lobby) and he called somebody and they switched us to another room.
Still, with so many options in Buenos Aires, this was a big downer and we may look elsewhere next time.
- CARLOS (6/5): HI THE COFFE SHOP DOWN STERS WOS VERRY GOOD - I ASK FOR EXTRA TOWERS AND THEY REFUCE TO GIVE THEM TO ME I STAY THERE FOR 28 DAYS AND MAY GAIL FRIEND STAY AND EXTRA 3 DAYS AND IS NOT CHIPE OLSOW I ASKE FOR THE ROOM TO BE CLEND MORRE OFENT THAY SAID NO 1 A WEERK
- JohanL83 (6/5): Decent quality - Stayed here for a few days while visiting BA. Apartments have a nice design and enough space to stay 2 people for some time. Location was good for us as it offered a central location in between areas we wanted to visit.
Standard is ok but in need of some maintenance, it seems like quick fixes are being used when repairing. We had some problems that we pointed out and were told the handyman would come next week, little use when we were leaving same Friday.
Water pressure in the shower is bad but this might be a BA thing. The breakfast is offered at a near by cafe and is limited to medialunas and a hot drink. You are better of eating breakfast elsewhere.
- adolfl paz (6/5): Okey but not perfect - The rooms where spacius, but i was given one with some fixing of humidity.
The bed was okey but they could invest in new or better matresses.
Tv too smal
- Isabel (4/5): Bem localizado - Roupas de cama um pouco sujas e com cheiro ruim
Ar condicionado muito barulhento
Limpeza a desejar
Todavia é bem localizado, apenas
- jose (8/5): IQ good for the price - Very good location you have to thinks this is not an hotel , front desk open 8 to 4 rooms are cleaned every seven days but overall for the price is not a bad choice
- dsostari (4/5): WiFi Internet interference and low speed - They have at least 3 routers per flor. Before 2 weeks they are improve speed based on the main gateway but infrastructure of routers with shared network surveillance cameras on the same subnet is disaster. They don't have wall plug for internet in apt. Master router on the PB is down every 2 days and only this one is with full throughput like PB hot spot. Channel redistribution is not created and people all the time complaining. I was here before 1y and they have still the same problem. Use PLC or implement QoS in each router. Crome cast and Apple TV is imposible to use.
- Kevin (8/5): Great apartments but bad check-in/out - The late check in at 3 p.m and early 10 a.m aren't very adapted for travellers from Europe. The receptionist is only there a few hours during the day so you better not get problems after 4 p.m if you need help. A part of that the building is very nice. The room was very spacious with all comfort and the wifi worked very well! The pool has a fantastic view and not over crowded. Could be cleaner though. The location is ideal, Recoleta is a living and safe area during day and night.
- kk617 (8/5): Nice Studio apartment in Recoleta - When I go to Buenos Aires, I like to stay in apartments instead of hotels. For 2 to 4 weeks, it is much more comfortable, and usually a lot less expensive.
I had a unit on the 9th floor, and its layout and storage was great. All the rooms have a balcony. I like the back of the building for less street noise.
The front dest service was excellent. (Note: even though this is listed as a hotel, the front desk is only staffed 8-5, Mon to Sat.)
Basically each apartment is independently owned. Some owners own several. A few people live there year round, but basically most are then put into the rental pool. Having said that, some units may not be furnished well, or kept in good repair. My unit was right below the pool, and it was obvious the pool is leaking. Also a bit noisy during the pool hours (9-22 hrs) as most of the roof deck noises come through.
Also to note, and this is known up front, the cleaning is done weekly, as is standard on apartment rentals, but not for hotels. This for me is fine. You can also get towels refreshed for a fee (something not available on most apartment rentals)
Having a pool and deck was great for afternoon relaxation and sun. THe gym is not great, and some of the equipment was in disrepair ( elipticals).
The only very negative thing was the WIFI is VERY slow, and sometimes just won't connect. The only place it seems strong is in the lobby, and at night you will see several people on their laptops sitting there. The routers were reset several times but the problem persisted.
Overall it is a nice size apartment for 1, or 2, people., in a great location. Service was great, and I would defintely go back again. It also was a lot less expensive than renting private apartments through a rental service.
- claudio (10/5): App.limpio.comodo. - Les mande un meil.excelente todo
- Claudio (4/5): Check-in time on hotel's website is incorrect - We booked this property because of their early check-in advertising, which says is 9am. Flying in from Atlanta our flight landed early in the A.M, so this place seemed like a great choice. Well, as soon as we got there, the front desk employee told us that the check-in starts at 1pm and said that he had no idea why the website was stating something different. Then, he said that none of the rooms would be ready due to maintenance and that we would have to go to a different property about a mile away. Although he allowed us to use the spa to take a shower and change clothes, we were really disappointed with the service failure, lack of communication and false advertisement.
- CrisTrips (6/5): Good Stay - Only problem is with the cleaning of the apartment, it doesnt get cleaned very often and the towel of the bath keeps wet all days. Bed clothe keeps unchanged while apartment space is good enough. TV is poor on channels, while location is excelent. Breakfast is poor but you may not pay for it in advance.
- Sean (10/5): luxury apt/hotel - I spent 30 days iin Buenos Aires and this place was the nicest place of all for a reasonable price. Beautifully decorated and beautiful swimming pool and Jacuzzi on the spectactular rooftop. Prime location and modern. Very nice.
- CONRADO (8/5): interesante - Cuartos amplios y cómodos. Tranquilo y con pileta y solárium.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Mudaram meu hotel no dia do Check in - Fiquei insatisfeito com a alteração de hotel efetuada no dia de check in. Me alteraram do IQ Callao para o Concord Callao, o qual possuía diária com valor inferior e era localizado em uma área com trânsito intenso e muito barulho.
- Ricardo Antonio (10/5): Great value, stylish place in Recoleta. - Great location, value, style. I´m an hard user coming back for the last 5 years. It´s not an hotel, is a residential with a large room and the best neighborhood, plenty of transportation and easy access to most business/touristic areas in Bs.As.
- liliana nivea (6/5): Muy costoso para los servicios que brindan. - Es la tercera vez de hospedarme en este apart y noto que no se hacen mejorías algunas, al contrario sacan beneficios que se tenían.
Muy pocas tohallas y viejas, lo mismo que las sábanas y mantas.
Deben dejar en heladera algo (agua míneral como mínimo), algún saquito de té..... etc, lo elemental para salir de un apuro (llegue 11 de la noche, todo cerrado....).
Champú, enjuague...
En cuanto a la atención, quiero que quede en claro, que el encargado es EXTRAORDINARIO, la mejor calificación se merece. Me dió mucha pena tener que comunicarle las falencias porque se preocupa mucho, pero a nosotros nos salió muy caro el alojamiento y MUY POCO ME BRINDÓ.
- Fernando (8/5): New building in great location - I have stayed twice already in this apart hotel. The location is great, very near Santa Fe y Callao ( prominent cross road in BA) and walking distance from Recoleta , Plaza Francia, the Recoleta Cultural Center, Museo de Bellas Artes, etc.
This is a condominium where a company is renting and managing some of the units, which may be a bit odd. Nevertheless, they hace a front desk open at business hours (Sunday is closed).
I had a couple of things that were out of order in the suite and ask them to get them repaired and they did pretty fast.
Wi-Fi is mediocre, but this is a problem in the whole city: some times you have good signal and some time it disappears.
Downstairs there is an excellent coffee and cake shop called Nucha, where you can enjoy the delicious local pastry, and at the corner Volta, which is a famous Italian gelato chain. Do not leave without tasting it!
You have on the same street a restaurant called Melo which has amazing food too.
The unit is well equipped and if you need something they can find it for you.
The only really bad amenity is the gym: it has a couple of old bikes and treadmills that barely work.
They called a car to drop me off at the airport which was much better than a taxi at the same price. (Try not to get taxis on the street, always get them by phone, because they may scam you, specially if you do not speak Spanish)
- Pablo Javier (8/5): excelente ubicación y lujosa estadía - Viajé con mi novia 4 noches y nuestro objetivo era salir y visitar la ciudad durante el día y descansar por la tarde/noche. Tuvimos una excelente experiencia allí, el hotel es muy refinado, con detalles modernos de lujo y muy buen gusto estético pensado sin dudas desde el comienzo. La atención de los conserjes y el personal es cordial y solucionan inconvenientes enseguida. Tienen personal de seguridad con guardia 24 hs. Nos dio tranquilidad tener siempre con nosotros la llave electrónica del depto aunque salgamos. La limpieza de lugares comunes es excelente, pero la habitación sólo tiene limpieza una vez por semana (la recibimos muy pulcra). Fuimos a la habitación tipo "estudio" y disfrutamos de un amplio depto luminoso con sofá, TV 32´ con panel corredizo a lo largo para verla desde la mesa o desde la cama King size 2x2 metros, aire acondicionado, ventanal corredizo que daba a un balcón propio con mesa y sillas exteriores y con vista al hermoso jardín del hotel. El baño no escapa al lujo general: es grande y moderno. Tiene anafe eléctrico, heladera y microondas para llevar comida de afuera o cocinar allí. Lo malo: sólo había una olla y un hervidor sin manija para ello. Hay muchas cajoneras distribuidas y el placard pasillo es enorme y corredizo. Cochera interna opcional, sino externa las 24 hs a 200 metros. Las fotos no son engañosas! Recomendamos el lugar y volveremos sin duda porque estamos satisfechos por el lugar, atención y la relación precio-calidad.
