    I liked everything. People were flexible and switch beds, this way I could sleep in the bottom bed. They changed my check-in day because my bus took too long and I arrived next day. They arrange for excursions for a good price.

    Nice kitchen and lounge. Friendly staff. One can walk from the Bus terminal, just 10 minutes. Close to supermarket and restaurants. Heating makes it cozy. Very good value for your money.

    The room was quite dark and not very well lit so it was a bit difficult to see in. The shared bathroom could be accessed by the other rooms when you were still inside.

    Really great vibe hostel, sociable kitchen and common areas and easy to find like minded people to car share with to get to peninsula valdes. Great cooking facilities too and close to the beach and supermarket.

    There aren't very many showers and toilets, perhaps too few for the amount of guests.

    The beds are comfortable and have big lockers underneath. The staff was helpful and nice, also spoke English very well. The showers and the kitchens (two of them!) are clean. They also have a little garden with hammocks and chairs.

    The eggs at breakfast are raw. To cook them, you need to go to the other kitchen that is not well equipped (no oil etc.), and when we came back, someone else took our table

    I found the mattresses to be a bit uncomfortable as they sank in the middle which was bad for my back, but I’m sure if I’d asked for a different bed they would’ve tried to help.

    Great location, only 10 mins from the bus station and 10 mins from the beach! The staff are all really nice and helpful - I felt really welcome. You can book tours here nice and easy. Great atmosphere, and good kitchen to cool whatever you need. Very clean everywhere

    If it's busy there's not enough social areas to hang out really. Would benefit from curtains on the beds for more privacy, also our shower drain was blocked so having a shower become a bath after 2 minutes!

    Really comfortable mattresses. Decent kitchen so you can cook and the location is close to amenities and 5 mins to the front. Will help with tours and can leave your bags and hang out there before you move on or before you check in.

    My room didn't seem to have a window, or if it did then it was covered up. My bed didn't have an outlet. No one was sleeping in the bed above mine, so I charged my phone there. I think only the top bunks have outlets. I wish each bed had a locker by it; my locker was on the other side of the room from my bed. Lastly, the showers were stalls, which in turn were located next to the stalls with toilets. Very little privacy.

    The upstairs is great, with a kitchen, a long dining table and large windows that face the beach. The view in the morning was lovely. There's a communal space with big, comfortable armchairs and lots of outlets. In the room, each bed has a little personal lamp.

    Nothing

    I stayed just one night, but I really liked this place, the dormitory was big enough and with a toilet in the room, you'll have plenty of space to store your things in the locker underneath the bed. The kitchen is pretty big but in case it gets too crowded there is a second separate one right in front. The Wifi is strong in every area, there is a nice little garden outside the kitchen. The staff was so nice to let me stay in the common area after the check out till my bus departure

    Good hostel, too bad that when booking it through booking you pay it in cash in pesos at the very bad official rate....because it is listed in dollars on booking. I recommend better contact the hostel directly to book it at the best fare possible using your blue dollar.

    Forcing people to pay cash was a major inconvenience. I booked in US $. As such, the inflation rate in Argentina becomes irrelevant. I understood their rationale but I disagree with it and it caught us off guard since paying by credit card is how I've rolled for 2 1/2+ years traveling continuously now. The internet near the kitchen was fine but my room (upstairs) had many hiccups; particularly after 8:30 p.m.

    The staff were very helpful; my room was comfortable. Location is fine; you can walk to the bus terminal from the hostel. Only about 10-12 minute walk.
