My stay at Telmho Hotel Boutique had its ups and downs. The location was absolutely perfect, right on Plaza Dorrego and close to the lively San Telmo markets. However, the room I got was quite small and lacked a view, which was disappointing, and the breakfast wasn’t anything to write home about. Overall, great spot but a mixed experience.
