Recent stay in Buenos Aires

We stayed in a private room with ensuite. The hostel has a cool vibe and is walking distance from some of the busier bars and restaurants. The room itself was fine for the price that was paid, the room was clean and functional (with AC and WiFi), the shower and toilet facility left a little to be desired but everything else was clean. It is a good budget option for Buenos Aires and seemed to have a good atmosphere if you are looking to meet other travellers.

Good Budget Hostel

The staff at the hostel were great, friendly and very helpful. Overall the facility was clean and well kept. I wanted a dorm style room; and while my dorm mates were quiet; we were off of the lobby and it was always loud - even after the 11pm quiet hours. The rooms are tight for six people and luggage. The lockers help a bit, but there is little storage space. Also, request a top bunk if you can - especially if you are tall. The bunks are pretty low, so if you are on the bottom you will definitely not be able to sit up straight.
