This is a great hostel at the heart of San Telmo, walking distance to the centre! The hostel thrives off a warm family atmosphere with great staff, spacious rooms, clean and tidy common areas! Bars, grocery stores, and the subway station are all in a close proximity!

It´s definetely a good Hostel for people who doesn´t want to be in the middle of a great mess of parties, noise and confusion. Very quiet and calm. The staff are helpfull and they can tell you all you´ll need in the city! I´m certain willying yo go back! Besides, everything was remarkable in the great city of Buenos Aires!

Alltogether an ok hostel. Some members of staff were friendlier than others. They make breakfast fresh - though a few days in advance! Communal space for eating but no sofa or relaxing space - 3 dorms off the main area must be very noisy - one could do with being a lounge! Tiny kitchen. However for $40 a night for spacious double room in San Telmo its a beautiful old house, i dont think you can get better value. You cant bring in alcohol, you must buy it - 18pesos for 660ml Quilimes beer.

One of the best hostels I've stayed in. The staff are really friendly and full of information. The location is good, equal distance between the cool bars and restaurants and the main promenade in Buenos Aires It was clean, nice breakfast, AC and free internet. Best part was the employees. They were helpful, knowledgeable and kind. We enjoyed the stay at this wonderful hostel. We will come back

Hi Sunjin Unfortunately I mention that one of your roommates brought them into the backpack, and did everything possible to eliminate them, luckily the task takes at least 4 days where the room was closed and we eliminated them. We could not move you from room because that way they are moved and installed in other rooms and harms the rest of the passengers and the same hostel We're so sorry about the incident, but we trying to do the best for all the pax All the best The staff at Hostel Inn

I loved it! The area was perfect for me. Near the centro but also at the older neighbourhood of Buenos Aries. So the style of the hostel was antique. Most of all the staff was very nice and helpful. -Chicas de Islandia! .

This hostel is a well run small hostel with friendly and very helpful staff. We had lost luggage to chase and other requests and staff couldn't have been more helpful. It is 2 blocks from the subway and from many bus routes. Can get a bus direct to the domestic airport. It was always clean and breakfast included homemade cakes & pastries. Staff organized activities well. Security was excellent. Wifi & computers available. Thank you for a great stay.

Stayed in double room for one night and enjoyed it. Room was hot and stuffy but then they turned on central aircon and it was great. Pros: friendly staff, hostel guitar, good location near san telmo, good price. Cons: Small kitchen, loud ceiling fan, common area not very relaxing/comfortable to chill out in.

I LOVED my stay at the hostel, will definitely be a repeat customer. The staff was friendly and really helpful with my travel plans (bookings and stuff), place was clean and there was a GREAT breakfast (different options). Its really close to all the touristy spots & easy travel (buses and subway near by). I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a place to stay in Buenos Aires.
