I had a decent stay at Howard Johnson Congreso in Buenos Aires, enjoying its clean environment and friendly staff. The location was advantageous for exploring the local scene away from tourist traps, though walking around at night felt a bit unsafe. The breakfast options weren't extensive, but they were sufficient for starting my day.
