I stayed there twice. I had booked a single room with shared bathroom for 140 pesos a night.No such room existed. Both times I was forced to stay in a 10 bed dorm.

Average hostel but good located. The kitchen is small and didn't give breakfast as advertised "cos it's high season". The owner tried to make us pay more than what we booked only 10 days before arrival cause they increased the rates "cos it's high season" when that's unacceptable according to Hostelworld policies. We had to argue with her on the phone to keep the rate we booked, which made our stay at the hostel a bit uncomfortable afterwards. She also made us change room for no reason.

They are not very organized, both me and some australians I met in the trip had problems with our reservations, due to this, they gave me a for people private room, but the australians waeren't that lucky. The cleaness was poor, but you can d like me and use the Wine's museum store bathroom, it is really clean and nobody goes there! But I really enjoyed my time at the hostel, teh staff was cheerful and organized a party for the whole hostel. What I mean is taht it is a party hostel!

When we arrived they had filled our reserved room. They took us to el balcon (very nice and helpful staff) who were their 'colleagues' who they said would help us find accommodation. They said our deposit would count towards the new accommodation. This was not the case. It didn't. I spoke to the owner on the phone who said that we had to 'understand that it was high season'. That had nothing to do with it. Poor Planning was all it was

A VERY nice place to stay! Mudo and Emma are the owners and by far the most helpful and friendly staffmembers we´ve met in Artentina so far. It really is a place that makes you feel at home, and makes you want to book an extra day or 2! Gracias por todo!
