“This place hits a sweet spot: it's close to the action near Parque Centenario and the Malecon, and the staff seems genuinely keen to help, even if your Spanish is rusty. I noted it's an older building, so expect some quirks like stairs and potential noise, but the rooms are spacious and clean. If you're traveling with a pet, that's a definite plus, as few other city center options welcome them.”
