Another vote for the PH. $300 is a pretty good deal for that property, especially as you head into summer down there. The property is great. I much prefer the location too. The hardcore downtown area is just not pleasant. Traffic, urban jungle, dirty. The PH is still in more of an urban area but much nicer. BA is one of the few places where I consider boutique hotels because i love the neighborhood feel of Palermo. But if I am going to stay at a chain hotel, the PH is a phenomenal option.

Of course, $300 is $300, but to me worth the splurge.
