Do not remove the pillow case, you’ll have nightmares. Otherwise, good facilities, a little outdated but functional.

Wonderful staff
The hostel all well and good, but the staff is really what made the stay special for me. They were incredibly kind and welcoming and really took the extra steps to make sure I enjoyed my stay at not just the hostel but also the city itself

Very nice hostel full with lovely fellow international travelers. Has nice area where everyone can come and chat, smoke, eat, and drink. Only problem was the mattress is not so comfortable but can't blame for the low cost for stay.

Location is excellent, nice area and walking distance to bars and restaurants. Hostel staff were terrific and any issues we raised they addressed immediately. We stayed in the Folk room and would stay there again. The breakfast was average and could be improved.

Me estafaron, tanto el hostel como expedia
Reserve por medii de una plataforma, la cual es también una estafa, Expedia, cuando llegue al ñugar me dijeron que no tenian la habitación, que habia sido error del sistema que ellos no se podian hacer cargo y no me quieren ni quisieron devolverme el dinero, pesimos como empresa, cero soluciones. Me estafaron!!!!

Hostel calmo e confortável
Os atendentes foram muito gentis. Eu cheguei no dia 9 e precisava fazer o pagamento na entrada, porém solicitei que eu passasse o cartão na virada da noite (dia 10) e compreenderam perfeitamente. Ganhei um drinque muito saboroso. Minhas vizinhas/ parceiras de habitação foram muito queridas. Todos outros hóspedes muito respeitosos. Cumpriram os horários de silêncio. Banheiro limpo e ducha muito boa. Gostei muito do hostel. Se eu tiver outra oportunidade de voltar, vou ver para me hospedar novamente lá. Duas reclamações: Na minha cama, não tinha escada. Nas outras tinha. Teve um dia que faltou água, PORÉM arrumaram em poucas horas. Conclusão: gostei muito.

Buona posizione
La struttura è in una ottima area, abbastanza vicino alla metropolitana lunea D, parecchi locali dove mangiare . Noi abbiamo soggiornato in camera doppia. Spaziosa, essenziale , un po trascurata....un ostello nella media. Unico difetto le camere danno su un patio con tavolini....c'è da sperare che gli ospiti non si soffermino troppo la sera a chiaccherare altrimenti non si dorme.... Personale molto gentile e disponibile.

Um lugar agradável para alguns dias
O quarto é grande e confortável. A água é bem agradável. O bairro é bem legal para sair pela noite, com muitas opções. O pessoal da recepção também é bem simpático.O único inconveniente é que o quarto está ao lado da recepção e dá para ouvir o som vindo de lá e as conversas. Pela manhã teve um hóspede que discutia com o pai no viva voz na frente da minha porta e tive que ouvir tudo, sem ninguém da recepção interferir. Porém quando meu irmão foi me visitar, parecia que eu tinha feito algo de errado, pois não tinham avisado as regras do hostel. No café da manhã faltam coisas mais saudáveis, como queijo e ovos, que são servidos em alguns hostels que já visitei.

No se dejen engañar
Sinceramente yo lo tome por el precio y cercanía del medico que tenia que asistir, me quede una sola noche y me cambie de hotel por la mala calidad del hotel me pareció una barbaridad el cobro por 2 noches de 90 dolares.El dormitorio sin baño, eso lo sabía,, sin teléfono sin TV, yo lo compre porque en lo que me mandaron decía 465 pesos las dos noches que es lo correcto que se cobrara por un hotel que no se puede llamar hotel, pero me enojo mucho cuando me cobraron 90 dolares, los pagué y me quedé una sola noche en esa posilga que ni los colchones eran comodos me extraña que ustedes . ofrezcan ese hotel y me olvidaba que quise leer y la pieza tenia un velador que ni se veia tuve que desarmarlo para poder leer, no contratare nunca mas por intermedio de uds un hotel Perdi 45 dolares pero otra noche en ese lugar imposible
Response from Alvaro on Nov 17, 2017
Hola Liliana, lamento que haya elegido su alojamiento sin leer bien la publicación antes. La habitación que usted eligió no cuenta con tv o teléfono y tiene baño compartido, todo eso está aclarado antes de reservar. Entiendo que haya venido por un tratamiento médico, quizás un hostel no es la mejor opción para una persona en su condición. Respecto del cargo extra, se llama IVA y los residentes argentinos deben pagarlo al llegar al hotel. Le recomiendo que la próxima vez lea atentamente para que no tenga el mismo problema. Y como usted bien dice, no somos un hotel sino un hostel. Saludos cordiales.

Great location
As far a hosts can go, it is a good one. However, the fact that it has no air conditioning makes sleeping quite a challenge during summer.
Thanks for you comments, we offer private rooms with A/C but shared dorms only with ceiling fans, usually hostels with A/C charges a lot more than we do. Thanks and hope to see you soon!

MALO
El hotel está en el corazón de Palermo Soho muy céntrico si quieres bares, restaurantes y shopping cerca, pero realmente no es nada cómodo las camas son incómodas no esta muy limpio y las instalaciones no son adecuadas, además no hay aire acondicionado!!! El personal es muy amable pero el hotel es realmente para quedarse una noche a lo mucho.
Response from Alvaro on Apr 4, 2015
Hola, gracias por tu comentario. T epedimos disculpas si tuviste una mala experiencia. Hemos mejorado muchas instalaciones, las camas y colchones son nuevos. Respecto del aire acondicionado, no ofrecemos ese servicio debido a que somos un hostel y dadas nuestras tarifas de bajo presupuesto no podemos contar con ese servicio. De todas formas todas nuestras habitaciones cuentan con ventiladores de techo y calefacción. Quedamos a tu entera disposición para otros comentarios y te invitamos a visitarnos nuevamente. Saludos cordiales
