Very bad cleaning. Very dirty floor, lots of dust on the surface. Balcony was incredibly dirty. Excellent wardrobe in the dressing room, luxurious mattress on the bed and pillows, slept like a baby. 100% audibility.

There is nobody around after 5pm to help you. Everything has to be done by text. They have a strange tv system that kept logging you off and not working. They would send text messages with instructions that did not work. I was tired after a long flight and very annoying to be having to be texting and waiting for a response rather than sending someone to fix it. I was given a room with no light so was moved to another room after complaining which was dirty. No toilet paper and I had to wait until the next day to get some as nobody was around to help.

Nicolás the property manager was extremely helpful and nice. The apartment was spotless and clean. Really beautiful minimal space. Incredible balcony with amazing view. Neighborhood is amazing with the best bakery for coffee and medialubyin the morning. The area is one of the best. The only small problem is that Expedia does unit give you the correct whattsapp number to communicate with the manager. Easily solved by googling the info for the other babel hotel in BA. Don’t think twice about booking this apartment.

Everything was great. Things to improve: provide paper towels for guests. Also there was a bad ant problem in the kitchen. Finally the balcony is very dangerous. There is a big hole at the top where someone can fall 8 floors. Or the neighbor can walk over to your balcony. Design flaw in the building.

Hotel Babel Botanico is in a safe and quiet part of Buenos Aires about 30 minutes by car to La Recoleta. The rooms are modern, clean, with great hot water. As a person in his mid 70's, my only complaint is that communication is all digital. There is a phone number you can call unfortunately the three times I called no one answered. I had better luck texting using what'sapp. Once you are inside the hotel you can go to room 1 A and speak directly to Edgar who is very welcoming and helpful.
