This is a pretty standard hostel, and I think a very good value for money. It's quiet and lacks the drunken party crowd of some other hostels, making it a great place to actually get sleep. The staff is helpful and always available. The breakfast of toast, two medialunas, coffee, and juice is wonderful. There's an adorably fluffy cat that hangs around the front room. Arriba is a bit far from the life of Palermo, but that's what keeps it quiet and peaceful: I consider it a good thing.

This hostel is ok, everything is working fine but it doesn't look great. There is a fridge in the room where you can store your food and lockers are placed outside the room. Staff was ok and breakfast average. This hostel has a good value for money so I would go back if I want to stay near Palermo area

This hostel was terrible, the only good thing about it was the location and the poor girl at the desk who was very apologetic about the condition of the hostel. There was construction going on next door and they happened to be jackhammering right above our beds. Be forewarned, if you place a deposit for a stay here you will be charged two nights accommodation if you decide not to check in (which is almost guaranteed). it was dirty and the door to our room was like a closet door...not secure

The passengers didn't stay more than one hour at the hostel. They've arrived 1 pm aprox. We've offered them a room change (because the noises of a next door building - in a pre-scheduled time), but they did not accept. The door of their room is really secure, with key. They were looking for an excuse to cancel their booking without pay anything, since their arrival. (Never happened before. A pitty, because the rate of the review ...).

This hostel is very underrated. It has an excellent breakfast, clean facilities, good security and a nice relaxed feel to it. Alot of the residents actually live here long term due to the easy vibe and value for the money they pay.

This hostel was lovely!!!!!! It is right next to a great park, just 10 minutes away from the heart of Palermo, with shopping, restaurants and bars galore. The staff are helpful and the price is unbeatable. 100% recommend this place. I have stayed in 5 other hostels in Buenos Aires and all of them had a big letdown but this one hits all the marks.
