Fraude
En la app hice un pago y de inmediato me contactó un tal Fabian en privado para ofrecerme por 7 dólares un incremento de habitación, me mandaron fotos de las que me ofrecían; le dije que cuando llegues me mostrara la que pagué y la que me estaba ofreciendo. Cuando llegué, otro dependiente del hotel me dio que pasara a la habitación (dándome sin cargo aquella de las fotos que me mandaron). Es el caso que estando frente a mi, por teléfono una voz de mujer le dijo que me cobrara los dólares. Notoriamente me di cuenta que era una tranza (lo peor es que el propio empleado -muy amable por cierto- también se dio cuenta de ello y no tuvo más que aguantar la pena que le dio conmigo. MORALEJA.- si contratan con ese hotel, RECHACEN CUALQUIER OFERTA DE INCREMENTO DE “CATEGORÍA” Para que no haya dudas al respecto. Desde luego NO VUELVO A ESE LUGAR
Our stay at Apassionata was amazing. Fabian is incredibly attentive and kind and made us feel very welcome. He was always unavailable for questions and concerns and was quick to resolve any problems. Initially we had some issues with the heating in our room and when it couldn't be fixed, we were quickly moved to a much better room. The small size of the hotel allowed so that we got to know the other guests that were staying there. Overall our stay at Apassionata was fabulous.
Fui con mi familia, pero imposible hospedarse ahí.
Las habitación y limpieza no son como se muestran en las fotos, parece como si fuesen hace 10 años.
Mi cama repleta de hormigas y jamás la limpiaron.
Solicite el reembolso y hasta la fecha. Trato de comunicarme con Hoteles.com y no tengo respuesta
Más que un hotel es una pensión, pero sin servicios. Se maneja en modo automático, no hay nunca nadie, frio, mala iluminación. Tal vez en verano sea mejor, pero en invierno en ningún caso.

They never opened the door for check-in.
It looked like a house, not a hotel.
We knocked and knocked. Somebody spoke from the inside, we told them we had a reservation, but the guy ignored us and never opened the door.
We came to check in at midnight.
Großes Lob! Wunderschönes Hotel mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, sprach mehrere Sprachen und kannte alle Gäste beim Namen. Vielen Dank, gerne wieder!
Absolutely amazing place to stay! Such a lovely hotel and lovely staff. Ideal location close to all the main attractions and streets without being in a noisy area. Every room is different and decorated to perfection.
We had 3 days in Buenos Aires and Fabian made it so much easier for us to get around! Had great suggestions on where to eat and what to see.
Thanks so much

Bonne adresse mais pas exceptionnelle
Accueil parfait du proprietaire qui est fort sympathique et prof de tango. Il y a une vraie ambiance tango car il y a une salle de cours de tango dans le BB
Les chambres sont plutot petites et tres sombres. C'est correctement placé a quelques minutes du metro.
Lieu atypique, sympathique et très tranquille. Accueil chaleureux

Excelente potencial
El servicio y la atención fue excelente, el hotel es bello y muy bien decorado. Es desagüe de nuestra ducha estaba tapado, solo hay un jabón para ducha y manos y no había bidet.
Quarto com baratas;
Banheiro com mofo no chão;
Durante a noite se houve muito barulho, principalmente aos fins de semana;
Edredom extra mofado;
Quarto de tamanho bom para casal;
Itens de cozinhas razoáveis;
Limpeza diária ok.
A localização é muito Boa, perto da Augustinas, Ahumada, Estado, 5 min do Palácio La Moneda, 8min da Plaza de Armas, 20min de metro até Costanera Center, é possível ir andando ao Cerro Santa Lúcia e Cerro San Cristóbal.
It is a homey place to stay. The proprietors go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable and your needs are met. The accommodation was not luxurious by any means, but it was clean, in a safe area, and had a friendly, caring atmosphere. I disliked my first room, because it was at the top of the building, and I found the upper metal staircase to be scary - there's no elevator. I expressed my concern soon after checking in, and my room was switched to a lower floor immediately. The room wasn't spacious, but it was enough room for me. Sizes of rooms vary, so make sure to ask questions and choose carefully when booking here. Beware that the beds are located in lofts in the marble staircase floors. Breakfast was good, and included a nice variety of choices. The location is convenient and safe. There are numerous restaurants, shops and grocery stores, plus subway access nearby. I'd stay here again. The owner was out of town, but if you're looking for tango lessons, this hotel has a beautiful ballroom where you can have lessons from the owner, or possibly someone else, right on the premises.
This is a Tango hotel, so expect dancing and dance classes to be taking place. Sebastian is a superb host. The place is more akin to a home than a hotel. It has an excellent atmosphere. You're left alone if you wish to be but help is always on hand if you want it. There's road noise from early in the morning if you at the front of the hotel as it's sited next to a busy intersection. There's also a lot of stairs to climb inside of the building, which may not suit some but it was fine for me. It's quirky but nice and very welcoming. It's an old style house in a very good area and close to plenty of good bars and restaurants. The Wi-Fi is fine. Nothing was too much trouble for Sebastian and the staff. He speaks fluent English, Spanish and German
This is a small boutique style hotel. Fabian is a very good host. He also instructs tango dancing in the ground floor studio. The rooms that I saw appear to setup for couples, and the open air lower courtyard is a fantastic feature for breakfast and meeting other guests. The hotel only has steps. Location is excellent. Like all streets in cities is busy during working hours, but quite from late to early morning. If street noise is a problem for you, than request a back room. Fabian will also organise tango dancing events and drivers to take you to the airport if you ask him. I would stay here again when next in town. Has good Wifi. No TV, but you don't need one when staying in this type of hotel. If you want to watch soccer the café on the corner near the hotel has Foxtel. Order a beer and watch the soccer and engage in the local community around you.
Couldn’t recommend Apassionata more. Fabian an Tristan were so lovely and made me feel right at home from when I first came in. Clue’s in the name :) With a small hotel like this, Fabian creates a family feel for everyone and also the guests immediately connect. Never been to Buenos Aires before, but can honestly say I did not feel like an outsider for one minute. Thanks so much to everyone at Apassionata. I had a blast.
