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.

Comfortable and Quiet

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.
