The staff were wonderful, very helpful front desk attendants that were able to get us day of reservations at the places we wanted. The room was more plain/simple than the photos on Expedia of what I thought we were getting, but it was clean and immaculate every time we came back. The maids do a great job of servicing your room. We ate at the restaurant once and we had a lovely server and enjoyed the food! Overall, I’d definitely stay again for the price point in Recoleta, but might request a certain room. Great location and very safe. We really enjoyed it!
