Everything is good except that it was impossible to have hot water for shower.

I was staying for a month in the hostel, while looking for an apartment, and it was the best place I could ask for myself for this period. The staff is warm, helpful, supporting and friendly, the rooms are clean and nice, the people are interesting and lovely and the location is perfect if you're looking to stay in a different area than the Centre. I felt safe and homey and I would definitely recommend this hostel for anyone.

I was hopping a great experience but it wasn´t that way. The staff is just demotivated, they have a lot of issues with almost everything and nothing seemed to be done. When I arrived I could not open my door so they had to change the lock the very next day meanwhile the room door had to remain open. In the bathroom you had to be lucky to get hot water. The Internet service was just as random as the hot water, terrible. And they do not give good food recommendations. I just didn't like it.

The building has heaps of character and the location is pretty ok (near the subway and about 6 blocks from the best part of Palermo Soho. The staff is fine and their English is good. However, the bathroom was really disapointing - it took ages before the shower got a bit warm and sometimes it would just stop. The breakfast was also very poor, even for Argentinian standards (cereals with milk, if any milk was left, and bread) shortage of spoons, etc. This is a place only for low-budget bacpackers

We were only here a night and booked it because it was in Palermo which we like and it's close to the airport. However, next time I'd stay somewhere else. It's a big hostel and corporate so they were strict with check-in at 2PM, even though our room was ready before that (TERRIBLE!). Showers had no hot water, which is inexcusable in a city when we get hot water at more remote hostels. It's within walking distance to bars, but it's near some sketchy areas. Lots of families and kids here as well.

I loved Hostel Suites Palermo which was formerly a mansion, subdivided into a hostel. I stayed in two different private rooms in two different stays. The staff was very helpful and I loved the faded grandeur appearance of the establishment. The hostel is only two blocks from the nearest subway.I would definitely stay in Hostel Suites Palermo if I return to Buenos Aires. Two small negatives, hot water was slow to arrive and one room let in too much light from an adjoining lobby in one room.

I stayed here on and off for a total of 10 days or so. The good: - excellent location - clean - a good relaxing place (not a loud place like millhouse) - helpful staff - ok breakfast Complaints: you'll be lucky to get hot water in this place. The Wifi is good but cut off quite a few times.

Hostel has a good location, quite easy to find from the nearest subway station Palermo. Rooms were clean and nice , we only stayed one night. But some people from the staff were not so welcoming. Is "Hello " an option for them ?

Hello, The hostel was dark, not so well ventilated, breakfast was very basic and we even had to wash our dishes after breakfast, which we haven't experienced in any other hostel around the world. In general the value for money was very low compared to other accommodations that we used in Buenos Aires.

I liked this hostel at first and we ended up staying a few days mostly out of convenience. I wanted to extend my stay a couple times and was told that it would be okay and that I didn't need to pay at that moment, only for them to later tell me that the current room I was in was fully booked and I would have to switch rooms. This happened a few times. The hostel itself is pretty cool looking and it has an awesome rooftop patio and lots of lounging space. There was never anyone around though.

There was a huge disparity between the quality of the rooms in front of the patio on the first floor (extremely noisy) and the ones on the top floor. I changed rooms the second night, paying a little more, but getting a good night's sleep with air conditioning, which made a huge difference in the 38 degree weather.
