Super bra! Receptionisterna hjälpte gärna till om man hade någon fråga eller behövde hjälp. Dock fick vi fel adress till hamnen vi skulle åka färja ifrån, vilket gjorde stora problem för oss. Det gemensamma köket skulle kunna uppdateras och moderniseras. Soptunnor på toaletterna borde vara större. I övrigt, super bra hostel. Vi kände oss väl omhändertagna. Rekommenderas varmt!

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Good location, bad service overpriced.

Had to wait 90 minutes for the airport transfer organised by the hostel. The staff member on duty shrugged and said 'well you are here now'. The staff also had no idea about what tours were available (the bicycle tour was on the website but not available), and seemed generally to have little useful knowledge for a tourist. We were going to stay again in a few weeks time, but managed to find a boutique hostel around the corner that was cheaper, had fantastic service, a pool, and a private bathroom.

ok hostel. venligt personale. god beliggendhed. havde booket eneværelse MED BALKON, ifølge min booking. Men der var IKKE BALKON. Jeg fik altså ikke det, jeg havde bestilt, hvilket er meget utilfredstillende. De tilbød mig gratis morgenmad til gengæld, men jeg ville hellere have haft en balkon. Ifølge hostellet er der ikke nogen af eneværelserne, der har balkon. Hostellet sælger altså noget, de ikke har. Dårlig stil

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.
