After staying at 2 other hostels in BA, it was a blessing to find Ostinatto and it's staff. They all went out of their way to make sure you enjoyed your stay and the wonderful city. Breakfast was plentiful, the cleaners came through the rooms daily and bathrooms and kitchen were tended to regularly. Ben, Vicky and Juli are legends... More

Stayed here for 3 nights as a starting point for a 6 month trip. Firstly the staff were very friendly and helpful, secondly the architecture of the building was fantastic.The location of this place is also great, close to great restaurants. Only downfall to the interior architecture is that the noise easily echoes and bounces up the hollow center. We... More

There are loads of great things about this hostel but a couple or irritations, which if they bother you, mean you'd probably get better for your money around the corner. It is amazing old building and the staff are all wonderfully friendly and helpful. I stayed three times across Jan 2012, and kept going back primarily because of the free... More

If you seek a clean, organized and quiet place, close to touristic attractions and good food, Ostinatto is a perfect place. The hostesses are very friendly and helpful.

It looks new and it has a sprecial atmosphere. We appreciated our stay. The location is perfect. It is clean, they have a well-equipped kitchen and friendly staff. Free internet. May be too hot in some rooms (no windows). Can be noisy at times. The owner assured us that the party being held was a one-time-only event.

We loved it here! The thing that really stands out for me is the atmosphere. Everyone here from the cleaners to the people on reception to those who give the classes here (which are free by the way), are all really friendly. They are really helpful and gave us great tips about whats good to do locally. There are a... More

I came for 3 days and have now stayed for 20. The hostel is in the centre of San Telmo in a great location. The hostel gives loads of free clasess...Tango, walking tours, spanish, Yoga etc, which is why I have ended up staying so long (though no Yoga for me). I wanted to do a spanish course in south...

Thats a really nice touch! Free Tango classes really nice! Kitchen is well equiped, breakfast is nice. It s just too noisy. Its the price for the crazy architectural... More
