The hotel is in San Telmo, one of the oldest area of the city and not at all affluent. The area has character, within walking distance of some the major attractions and is very lively. Getting around is easy. That said, the area is somewhat shady and looks uncomfortable if by oneself at night.
The hotel itself has its merits. It has a nice lobby, a courtyard and looks cool and tastefully furnished. Staff is helpful, breakfast is acceptable and security is good for guests.
The room is spacious but the bathroom is very tiny and definitely needs work, especially the tiles, the caulking, the faucets, the doors.
