fantastic hotel experience!

clean roommodern designfriendly staffmissing amenity

My room was very nice and neat. the interior design felt modern and cozy. i especially liked the rooftop. It had a relaxing atmosphere with great views. the staff was friendly, and check-in was smooth.

i found that extra amenities, like a hairdryer, required a request. these are usually included in most hotels. also, there was no fridge in the room, even though there was dedicated space for one.

Facilities

9/10

the hotel provided valet parking, ensuring secure and convenient vehicle storage . solar panels were visibly installed on the roof, demonstrating an eco-conscious approach to energy usage. a rooftop terrace offered panoramic views.

Dining

8/10

a complimentary breakfast was served daily on the rooftop. it included a semiclosed bar that had specialized whiskey drinks. the menu offered affordable argentinian and traditional american foods, all of great quality.

Rooms

9/10

my room had a sofa and table set, providing additional space for my belongings. the bathroom included lovely products and a great shower. there was a nice size balcony with chairs, but a table would have been beneficial.

Service

10/10

housekeeping services were provided daily. the staff was always polite and accommodating. the hotel greeted me with a welcome glass of whiskey upon arrival, which i thought was a lovely gesture.
