Apartur Buenos Aires

It is quite simple but it is a safe place to stay for few days. The staff is very friendly and gentle. They gave all the support that we´ve requested. It has a fair price and we payed exactly what has been defined by the time we booked the room in this hotel. There is a place that you can put all your luggage that no one has access in exception of the hotel staff, after check-out. We had no problems at all. Besides, it is well located, since it is close to the main streets and, even if the hotel´s street is not very good to walk during the nigh (Saturday, for instance) due to it is a commercial area, it is very close to the main avenue (9 de Julio) that it is okay for walking with no problem. I would recommend it to my friends.

The best part about this hotel is location, just minutes the Subte, 5 minutes from Avenida Florida with its shops and 10-15 minutes from Puerto Madero and the restaurants. The street itself does not look nice, but we didn't feel unsafe even after dark. If you want a nicer environment, just don't stay in the Microcentro - choose areas like Palermo instead. But there you will be less well connected. The apartment where we stayed was not terribly new but clean and comfortable, with a sitting room and a kitchen with a fridge, a sink and a gas oven. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with everything from breakfast (brought to the room) to tips about the city. It was cold but we were provided with an electric radiator which was enough.

Do not expect fancy design and new furniture. Everything in the hotel is a bit run down, but clean and well maintained. The biggest trouble was hot water running out on a weekday morning, but we were lucky to have taken shower before that, and when we came back after a few hours, everything was in order again. It was our first time in Argentina, so breakfast was a disappointment at first (medialunas, dolche de leche etc.). But we later understood that this is what the locals normally eat, so if you want something like English breakfast or cereals and fruits etc., you will need to put some effort in finding a place that serves such things.

Staff were very accomdating and willing to please, spoke English and very helpful. Cleaning staff were very efficient, apartment was cleaned daily. Spacious apartment in the city bedroom, kitchen, plus additional room with work station/dining area and couch/bed.

Wifi was very unreliable.
