I had a great time at this hostel!! Everyone was so helpful especially Nadav whom took time out of his day to help me at the post office. The asado was great and all the staff are willing to help and socialize!!

We loved this hostel. The staff were very friendly and very, very helpful! Plus we met the owner and he seems genuinely interested in providing a great experience at his hostel. The place was very clean and had great kitchen facilities. We also loved the breakfast - eggs were a real treat!!! And the beer was cheap too! Would definitely recommend this place to others.

Located on a smelly street, but is a very friendly, clean, relaxed hostel. The staff are great, will help you with anything and let you hang out in the hostel way past check-out.

This hostel is fabulous, breakfast is kept out until 12 which is fantastic!! The staff are lovely, the owner is always about chatting and offering to take you out which is a nice change. Nico the cook makes a banging BBQ, it was my favourite night ... get involved! Internet is very speedy, cool chill area where everyone hangs, showers always hot, rooms are massive and spacey, quilts are soo cosy. Improvements; buy a grater for the kitchen, maybe new pillows and possibly fruits at breakfast?

Clean. Secure. Excellent position in the middle of town. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great empanadas. Great services. All you need. If I go back to Cordoba I would definitely go back to Baluch. Thanks for the great time.

The staff really make this hostel - friendly, approachable and incredibly helpful. A really nice place to stay - pretty central, walking distance from the main attractions of Cordoba.

The hostel is nice, a bit old but clean. The staff is super friendly. All the girls in the reception where really very helpful, and the Friday asado made by Nico was excellent. The room we stayed in was a good value for the money. The only thing that maybe was a bit of a negative is the location. The street is very commercial and not that interesting.

Myself and a friend stayed at Baluch Backpackers for over a week and had a fantastic time! Clean rooms, great atmosphere and most importantly the friendliest staff you will ever meet! Special shout out for Gal and Valerie who were always on hand with good advice. I have been in Argentina for almost 2 months and Baluch is the best hostel I´ve stayed in - sad to leave!

I stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. I can say that this was one of the most fun places I have traveled. The hostel is what made it so awesome. I met a bunch of people who were all down to hang out and do excursions, and the staff was personable and on top of their work. The hostel is literally right in the center of town and you can reach travel places to find excursions, or walk around the city. There are plenty of places to go out at night, and the hostel as well has many activities!

It was pretty loud in the mornings, and the beds weren't super comfy, but the breakfast was incredible and lasted till around 1 in the afternoon which was awesome. Not only was there bread and jam like in most hostels, but there was also cereal and eggs! The asado on the roof was really fun and delicious and was a great way to meet people. And it was great that they recommended places to go out at night.

Brilliant Hostel! Staff (especially Sab at the front) were not only helpful and friendly, but went out of their way (after hours) to socialise with guests. Breakfast is good, location is close enough to all things good, but the rooftop is the best bit! Wouldnt stay elsewhere if in Cordoba.

Hostel staff couldnt have been more helpful, Gal the owner was lovely! Very clean hostel and great warm showers! Breakfast was best we have had in hostel so far..you get eggs! Great location. Staff also gave us lots of useful info about nights out and what to do during the days. Had the bbq one night, was great food.

Arrived early after a night bus and we were offered breakfast before even checking in. The staff (Val & Sol) were fantastic and helped us plan our time in Cordoba. They also helped book our onward travel to BA. The rooms are secure and clean and the communal areas perfect for meeting fellow travelers. The open air roof is also a great spot for a few "quiet" drinks. 10 out of 10
