Top Buenos Aires Hotel Reviews

Tango de Mayo Hotel

Tango de Mayo Hotel

8/10 Good
"La ubicación es excelente. El desayuno es aceptable, sin embargo, podría tener una mejor variedad en general por ejemplo de frutas. Con respecto al personal de recepción, algunos tienen un excelente servicio al cliente; y otros más bien parece como si le estuvieran haciendo un favor al huésped en lugar de atenderlo y brindarle servicio. Las habitaciones reciben bastante ruido de la calle."
