4/10 Fair

not good value
This is a hostel, and although central to the bus station and main street, you can get better value for your dollar elsewhere in town with a proper hotel room. We had to make our own beds, rent towels, share bathrooms which were poor quality, fan only and very little breakfast offering. Staff were friendly.

So-so
The hostel is in a very good location and I didn't find it unclean like other people have said, but it still has some problems for example the wifi is only in common areas and cuts out every minute or so, and like other people have mentioned, there are very thin sheets that you have to put on yourself and having to rent a towel is annoying, also none of the staff speak English and there wasn't a barbecue like other guests have experienced. I would still probably stay again because the location is good and according to other reviews, it doesn't seem like there are any better hostels, and the terrace was nice.

Very friendly hotel staff
Sergio and his staff are very nice and helpful. The first night we even had drinks and an asado with them and some other guests. The kitchen was very clean which made it easy for us to cook. Our private room was a little cold but we slept just fine. We would definitely come back to this hostel.

Booking cancelled without notice
Our booking was cancelled without notice. Due to that we had to stay in a horrible hostel which ruined our trip. The information about the cancellation was send the day after the check in. Would not recommend this place. There are very nice place to stay around there.

Ambiente do hostel é agradável e aconchegante, porém reservamos quarto privado para 3 pessoas e a recepcionista nos colocou em um quarto que acomodavam 8 pessoas. Muito barulho a noite e madrugada da sacada compartilhada e da rua, som alto etc.

Instalações precárias
O hostel apesar de bem localizado possui estrutura, instalações e higiene dos banheiros precária. Ex, em um dos banheiros estava sem tampa e assento no vaso, o outro sem tampa e o terceiro alagava durante o banho. Não recomendo.

staff prestativo e agradável. Banheiros limpos, quartos não tanto. Necessidade de melhorias nos banheiros e melhor segurança, pois qualquer um tem acesso ao interior do hostel sem qualquer controle.

2/10 Poor

Inabitável
Os donos são gentis, educados e prestativos e a localização é muito boa... mas de verdade, não tem como funcionar ao público, é tudo muito precário, sujo, velho... enquanto não passar por uma reforma não tem como hospedar, mas tem potencial por ser uma casa grande... mas eu jamais me hospedaria ali novamente, foi de longe o pior hostel que eu já me hospedei, espero de verdade que de alguma forma possam melhorar pois aparentemente eh o sustento de toda a família.

Hostal en zona céntrica
Es una casa grande donde te recibe una familia que es muy amable, los cuartos son amplios y cómodos de manera que hay suficiente espacio para el número de literas que hay. Está muy céntrico.

bom custo benefício
A área externa do hostel é ótima, há mesas, rede e até churrasqueira. Quase não há tomadas no quarto, o que é ruim e os colchões já poderiam ser trocados, pois são finos e sem muita firmeza - muitos dias nele pode começar a dar dor nas costas. Quando estive lá pedi para o dono do hostel trocar a placa de indicação do banheiro que mostrava um homem espiando uma mulher em sua intimidade. Quem for lá da próxima vez confere se foi retirada. ;) Afinal, não podemos incentivar esse tipo de coisa que na prática não é uma brincadeira - a boa convivência e sensação de segurança de quem viaja sozinha agradece. :D

El lugar es sucio y está todo abierto, por ende lleno de bichos. No tiene aire y hacia mucho calor en la habitación, las camas incómodas. El personal muy amable y buen trato. La zona muy ruidosa x tener enfrente una plaza donde se juntan los jóvenes, gritos, guitarras y motos toda la noche.

muy buen trato del personal, buena habitacion y desayuno, falta mantenimiento. el tema de no poder pagar por tarjeta es condicionante, se calcula el precio en dolares para argentina, cuando queres pagar en el hotel tenes que llevar dolares, sino tienen un tipo de cambio paralelo en Colonia que termina saliendo carisimo
