Pros: The hostel is a 10-15 minute walk to Plaza Independence and the start of the historical town. The hostel has a nice courtyard with a little bar for relaxing or eating meals although we did not use the kitchen facilities. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Wifi was good and showers hot. They can also arrange a transfer to the airport for a better price than the taxi or Uber.

Pros: Staff was very very friendly. The place is located less than 10 minutes away from Ciudad Vieja, near downtown, and 5 minutes away from la Rambla, which is a long and beautiful coastal walk. Beds were comfortable, we had AC and lockers in our rooms, which was nice.

Cons: building needs a new roof, electricity, plumbing. everything needs a good cleaning with bleach especially the walls which then need to be painted. mattresses need to be replaced. sheets a tad threadbare. kitchenware needs to be bleached, more bowls added, and pots upgraded with pot holders available. more outlets in rooms would help tremendously. some residents were not terribly civilized in terms of cleaning up their smoking and drinking ashtrays, bottles and cups after themselves. gaucho museo is being renovated. lovely independent cat may be an issue for those allergic.

7.9 Good
Pros: The building was well-decorated, the staff worked extremely hard to clean the facilities, and there were lots of interesting people to speak with.
Cons: The hostel doesn’t provide much in the way of comforts or cleanliness despite the volunteer staff’s best efforts. Our sheets were too small for the bed and very thin (more than the usual hostel options), the couches were stained and lumpy, the pots and pans were so old that they were difficult to cook with (and everyone uses the kitchen in this hostel) and the tea towels in the kitchen were full of holes. These seem like little touches that would go a long way towards making this hostel a comfortable one.

Cons: The reservation was for one of our guests to a conference, we have fully prepaid the booking before his arrival thru this website, an employee of the hostel ask our guest to pay it he says it wasn't paid but it was. So booking was paid twice, finally money was given back to guest, but it was a really bad experience .
