The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel is located in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of boutique shops and restaurants. The hotel had lots of open spaces to work, enjoy a glass of wine or lay in the sun.

Amazing boutique-like hotel in perfect spot close to all of Palermo’s cafes, restaurant and shopping - but still a bit away in a quiet area. Lovely staff, cute rooms and great simple breakfast will everything needed.
Staff was kind, loved my room, and location was perfect. The owner is also someone who seems to know how to make things right if something is wrong, which is a lost value these days, so appreciate his help.
Staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was fine, especially for the price. The shower worked great, but slightly flooded the floor and the hot water knob was not attached. Not a big deal. The room was also kind of noisy due to it's location at the bottom of the stairs. Breakfast was good.
What a lovely stay we had at Hotel Costa Rica! The room was comfortable, and the common areas were cute and inviting. All the staff we interacted with were kind and helpful. Highly recommend this wonderful hotel.
The staff were very friendly, available, and helpful. Everything was clean and as a very old property, it has a lot of character. We have never stayed anywhere like it and would definitely go back.
Staffs are helpful and informative. Kindly suggested me the good rate Cambio nearby. The elevator was cool but needs maintenance (didn’t open the door and I was almost locked in!).
