"Mi casa es su casa," promises the room card at this five-room B&B in the San Telmo district—and indeed the owners and sole staff, Aidan Pass and Ian Spink, live on the first floor. They also did most of the ingenious renovation on their nineteenth-century building. The rooms are creatively laid out, with crisp linens and eclectic furnishings (a headboard covered in flocked brocade; a bathroom and bed stacked one atop the other in glass vitrines), and each has a leafy veranda. A certain dexterity is required to climb the helixed outdoor staircases that lead to rooms on the upper floor, but such physical effort is well rewarded by the owner's generosity. Their cocker spaniel, for whom the hotel is named, is a docile presence, contributing to the homey vibe.
