Buenos Aires hotellit Almagro

Plussat: It was quiet and for the price I can’t expect more.

Miinukset: The men at the reception some time just ignored you.

Plussat: It had aircond and breakfast was ok

Miinukset: It was the basic of the basic, but the value for money was ok, wifi was not so good, you need to actually get downstairs to have some.

Plussat: The medialunas (Argentine-style croissants) were good, it’s near subway line A.

Miinukset: Where to start... The people at the reception are always too busy with their cellphones to even notice you, only the lady that checked us in made some small talk while we waited for our room to be ready. The room is small and the bathroom is tiny. There’s a shower with absolutely no room to move, so don’t expect to be cleaning your feet unless you’re really flexible. The bathroom floor will end up wet after each shower as there’s nowhere to hold the soap or shampoo so you need to keep opening the curtain to reach for those on the sink top. The toilet has a seat made of the cheapest soft plastic you can imagine, not comfortable at all to sit on. We had two single beds and they were small, hard (not in a good way, even though I prefer hard mattresses), and the pillow so flat that it made no difference. The room looked clean, but it smelled like mold. The shower head looked like it needed a good scrub too. Breakfast is included, but it’s very limited. Coffee, tea, milk, orange juice (tasted like watered down Tang), and you can have either medialunas or (store-bought) toast with butter and jam. This may have been totally unfounded, but we didn’t feel safe leaving anything valuable in the room, so we put our electronics and anything else we couldn’t afford to lose in a backpack and took it with us. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Plussat: Nothing, rude people at the desk and felt very dirty.

Miinukset: I found the place to be very dirty
