It is a hostel to come back.

Location is reasonably close to lots of tourist attractions and pretty much next door to a small supermarket. Building is quite old and our private room had all the charm of a large storage room. But the place was quiet enough, has a decent kitchen and hang-out area. The bed was too soft for my wife's tastes. The staff spoke some English so they were reasonably helpful when we asked for advice.

This HI turned out to be a nightmare for me. Begin with the all night smoking party in the courtyard that drifted into the entire establishment. Yet, management seemed to think all was fine (when they knew it was not) ´because they are smoking in the courtyard. No Internet Service when I arrived ('it will be back on tomorrow'); a nice property gone very bad for several other reasons I won´t dignify by even writing about them. Had I not had a remarkable 3 weeks in Calgary´s HI, I would never go to a HI ever again due to this stay. Pick another hostel in this city, a different HI.

O quarto que ficamos, o número 111, é muuuito barulhento, por causa da proximidade com a rua na qual passam muitos e muitos carros, motos e ônibus. O banheiro é exprimido, e está sempre molhado devido a falta de box p o chuveiro. A localização é muito privilegiada, o que acaba compensando alguns transtornos. O elevador estava quebrado e a escada é grande!

I really enjoyed staying in this hostel. A great location for walking around Palermo and Recoleta and el Centro. The staff was super cool, very fun to chat with (if you speak spanish). The big dorm for girls is nice enough, the bathrooms are less than desirable. The smaller rooms for four people have better bathrooms, but the bedrooms themselves are cramped. But for the location, who can beat it? The breakfast is also not good... I would recommend budgeting to go grab a cafe somewhere else.
