A decent place for a couple nights
A perfectly nice place to stay; but nothing special. The place seemed weirdly empty which felt strange. But the room was as shown though a bit less spacious and the staff were kind.

Good start for BA
Geeat stay in Palermo. The staff were friendly and the rooms were tidy.
The hotel is quite and designed well. The breakfast is not rich but OK, there is a cool close rooftop to chill at, and they are nearby the center area of Palermo.

A little calm oasis in the middle of the city
The hotel was very nice, excellent service in a very well remodeled beginning of the XX century house.

Beautiful property in an older building, and they have done an excellent job making this feel like a unique, artistic hotel. Bed was also comfortable, bathroom was clean, and staff were always present and friendly. Great upstairs terrrace and lots of areas to sit, work or just chill out. Very walkable area right out the door with good restaurants just a few blocks away.

The hotel has lots of character being a renovated antique home with very pleasant decor and rooftop sitting area. The staff super nice and friendly. The rooms very comfortable and an excellent safe neighborhood, walking distance to many dining and drinking options. The price was super good for what you get! I would stay there again. Loved the place all and all

We often stay in Palermo when we are in Buenos Aires and this is the first time we have stayed at hotel Costa Rica. It was just lovely. The design was amazing and the hotel has a great vibe with a lovely rooftop terrace. Owner was super friendly

Good hotel, simple setting but with charm
The key question whether you like this hotel or not is whether you see the glass as half full or halv empty. It is a simple hotel, rooms are even more simpler, but everything was functioning well in the room and it was clean, but with ample “patina”. Breakfast is quite light. Regarding noise it is full transparency to the corridor so bring earplugs. Location is good and the staff is very friendly. Given the price I paid I was overall satisfied.

We liked it a lot!
Very bohemian spot. Great access to restaurants and markets. Best part of stay was going to local grocery and picking up beer and wine and going to roof top terrace where we socialized with other guests. Staff wonderful and set us up for a very early airport trip.

Enjoyed the area and the staff was helpful. Able to walk to many restaurants and had a good communal area. The room was not very large and the bathrooms are separate from your room which is a bit odd…but overall great for the price and worth the stay

It was a last minute booking after a flight was cancelled but the room has the shower openly a part of the bedroom, the toilet was in a cupboard under the staircase, it was dark, window to hallway and overall very tight. It was fine for one night only.
