The man who runs the place is unpleasant. The place is old and has a smell of an old unventillated house. The furnitures are old and unmaintained, the sliding doors of the closet need to be moved with force, the safe box has no key, the is no one to help with the suitcase ( there is no elevator) , the is no hot water in the bathroom sink, the is no glass to use while washing teeth, only small jars. since the is no mini fridge in the room I asked the owner to put my sandwich in his refrigerator - he did so under protest. He was angry with me for not buying their overpriced lunch box. I would stay awY from this place.

First day when we checked in, the front desk lady asked us to fill a special form with occupations, we asked why? She said we must do without any explanation. She also put one piece of paper told us if against hotel policy such as smoking in the room…, will have amount fine etc. she told us if need water , go downstairs dinner place, paying. We had very uncomfortable feelings, wrote to hotel.com. Next morning while we were waiting for tour pickup, the owner came , she said that is law to ask each person’s occupation. We asked why not any other holes do have such policy, she said this is Argentina law. Then she said if you are not happy, you can move out tonight. We didn’t have time to do so. Room was very cold, when temperatures at 8C at night, no heating. Since she already asked us if we were not happy to move out, we did not want to bother them any more. We had used all our winter coats over the thin comforter and wearing sweaters in bed.The shower water was so cold, after running over 10 min, finally had some hot water. Next morning before we left, we told front desk the room temperature, she said we should come to ask more blanket. We told her there was no heating in this room, finally they turned on the heating system for this room before we checked out in one hour. We both cough cold during . We have been traveling over 30 countries and stayed 5 hotels in Argentina within a year this time we had a unique experience, never to forget.Hope hotel.com can do something.

Fair for the price and lovely views

Good value, warm and comfortable bed. Easy walking distance of restaurants in the town via a steep hill. Views were also lovely of the lake. Breakfast could be improved with a couple of things - maybe an alternative to very sweet sugared cereal and some nice jams / marmalades would be good. Maybe cheese/ham for those who don’t eat eggs?

Nice place, very friendly staff, trying to help. The location is not far from the center but there is a steep road. It is good to lose calories after the excellent restaurants. The heating issue needs to be improved.

Great views nothing more

Perched on a hill with its rooms facing the lake, views are great. However, noise travel upslope and there are an awful lot of dogs around barking (more than normal in our 2 months of travel). Also very windy and difficult to have the window open. Our room on the 3rd floor was overlooking straight above the reception area, which added a level of noise. At check-in we mentioned our concerns and she assured us it would be quiet. She was plain lying. Very noisy, you can follow all conversations. Breakfast was good with fresly made eggs on demand with a basket of freshly baked small muffins and a variety of croissant and bread. Fresh fruit available too. The one downside is that both my husband and I caught an i testinal bug and we think it had to be from the ice cubes in the morning juice.
