Nicola B. 2011/11/06	Most of the staff was nice but the hostel could need a bit of fresh wall color and there were many black hairs in our bed and on the bathroom floor.	overall: 63% Atmosphere: 3 Location: 3 Facilities: 3 Staff: 4 Cleanliness: 2 Value For Money: 3 Security: 4

Read more ► After paying a deposit and booking the room, I arrived there and they claimed to never have received my e-mail even though I had a confirmation e-mail saying my money went through. Then, they told me I would have to leave early since they had someone else coming to the room I was in before I was scheduled to leave. They found a room for me across the street to help, but had told me the 30th was my last night so I said I said I would only need one more night at the other hostel. Well, it turns out that she mean I would be leaving on the 30th and I had to check-out. This place is too disorganized and does not seem to have a reliable booking procedure.

Read more ► Although the lady who cleans really tries to keep it clean, towels are old and full of holes, shower curtain is a real danger for health, no bed lamps, really old and full of stains carpet. It was impossible to open the window in our first room. Breakfast consist of mini toasts and a sweet bread or pancakes. Coffee machine had better years, so coffee has to be reheated with microwave. I think the administration should be changed or decided whether they reduce the prices or improve the quality. I cannot recommend this place!

Laura s. 2011/02/12	The booking through Gomio was terrible. The hostel had no reservation for me, and had to scramble to find me alternate lodging elsewhere. My credit card was overcharged by Gomio for the deposit. I complained and did not get a response for days. Terrible.	overall: 60% Atmosphere: 2 Location: 3 Facilities: 2 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 2 Value For Money: 3 Security: 4
Audrey t. 2011/02/11	It was a decent value for the money, only because of the location, but expect the bare minimum. A/C, wifi and hot water work but beds are not so hot and furniture in the rooms is sparse. Free breakfast was minimal. I wouldn't stay there again if I had it to do all over - I'd splurge for a nicer place in the same area.	overall: 69% Atmosphere: 3 Location: 4 Facilities: 3 Staff: 3 Cleanliness: 3 Value For Money: 4 Security: 4
Claudia b. 2011/01/25	If you are searching for an easy staying hostel, this is the right place. the staff is very friendly and ready to help if you need assistance in planning your visit in Buenos Aires. The rooms are clean but not extremely cutting edge... but in general we would recommend it for a short period.	overall: 78% Atmosphere: 3 Location: 5 Facilities: 3 Staff: 4 Cleanliness: 3 Value For Money: 4 Security: 5

Mário . 2010/11/10	The place in the pictures looks much more well preserved and taken care as it really seems, the could redo the bathroom in the shared room upstairs, it's really decadent, and change sheets more often too. I thought the staff stuck to themselves too much, as weel. I expected more friendliness.	overall: 40% Atmosphere: 3 Location: 3 Facilities: 1 Staff: 3 Cleanliness: 1 Value For Money: 2 Security: 1
