“Leon Imperial presents an appealing budget option in Buenos Aires, particularly for longer stays. While some rooms might not align perfectly with expectations of full kitchen amenities, the staff's attentiveness, coupled with practical conveniences like readily available filtered water and proximity to bus lines and a Coto supermarket, make it a worthwhile consideration. I see it as a solid base for exploring the city without breaking the bank, especially given in-room perks such as a microwave, electric kettle, and reliable air conditioning.”
