My wife and I stayed here and really enjoyed ourselves. Its located right in downtown and has a really cool artsy vibe to it. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean (we had a private room) and have ceiling fans which is a big plus. Breakfast is better than most hostels we've stayed at. One pointer;... More

I stayed here for a week when I first got to Buenos Aires and loved it. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful.

Beds are comfortable... More
