Closed and was not notified

This hostel has closed down. I was not informed of this prior to my scheduled stay and only found this out when I arrived to BA to find no one there or answering the phone. I had already paid for my booking and received a confirmation email for my booking earlier in the week I was due to stay. This should not be advertised as available via the Hotels.com website.

Being fixed up, great potential

I stayed at the place while it was being fixed up, so there isn't much more I can say beyond: it has great potential! The suits on top are a mini flat with all necessary conditions. Would like to see it again when it opens!

Nice friendly hostel near the centre of San Telmo and 10 minutes walk to the Subte. Friendly staff. Female dorm only had 1 powerpoint between 6 beds, which was a downside. Luckily, the dorm was not full while I was there.

Beautiful hostel, great staff, highly recommend

Super friendly and helpful staff. As a young female solo traveller I felt very safe in this area and in the beautiful female shared room! The only things I could mention is the doors of the showers need to be fixed more tea towels to dry dishes would be good

El "hostel no-hostel"

Resulta que el hostel ya no funciona como tal sino como una residencia. Por lo tanto fue un poco complejo el ingreso a la misma. Por lo demás todo muy bien, buenos espacios, buena gente y buena ubacación.

Cheap

It was as we expected not the best shape, but value for the money. You get what you pay for, but not more. It was a bed to sleep in, and a shower.
