This was a great place. There were lots of fun people staying here and we had a great time. We felt safe, but they didn´t take extra precautions to keep the stuff in our rooms safe. that being said, I never once felt worried.

I had a great time. Paul and his staff members are really helpful and friendly, and the place has a very chill atmosphere. Improvements are going on, and I expect great things from this hostel in the future

The conditions are quite poor. The rooms are small and crowded, there is a smell of gas and mosquitoes repelents everywhere. The poorest hostel I slept in in Argentina. Not recommended.

I thought Paul the manager was very helpful and considerate. Unfortunately, I found the hostel incredibly dirty, dark, and uninviting the say the least. The hostel has great potential, but needs a lot of work. New paint,lighting and bathroom renovations are sorely needed. Simply cleaning the hostel would make a huge difference.

The staff was very helpful, which makes up for the lack of any kind of amenities. The shower had ZERO water pressure. The location is great and the other guests were fun.
