It has a good location in the heart of Palermo.
Not their fault necessarily…but I wish they had an official quiet time. Both nights I slept there I had to politely get people to quiet down around midnight as they were talking loudly outside my room which had thin walls. I’m old and lame I know haha

I stayed in a private room, it had an excellent AC unit and was overall very comfortable. You can meet tons of friendly travelers just hanging out in the courtyard and having a coffee or a smoke. The location (Palermo Soho) is probably the most desirable neighborhood in CABA to stay as a foreigner, with trendy restaurants, artisan street markets and the botanic garden in walking distance, and tons of popular bars and nightclubs. After 11pm or so, the common areas close, and it's very quiet. Palermo is a party town, but this isn't really a party hostel.
This place is a good value, but bear in mind, the price you see on the booking in your country's currency is the price you'll pay. There may be a small discount if you bring cash but don't expect to take advantage of the exchange rates here. It makes perfect sense for them to operate this way; take it or leave it. You can find better deals, but probably not in Palermo. Bathroom amenities weren't glamorous, but you'll be fine, just wear your flip flops and figure it out.

Helpful staff. Room was spacious and comfortable. Love the balcony and big windows. AC was amazing specially after walking around in the e city. Our room was by the st but the noise didn’t bother us like everyone was saying on their review. Just use white noise ;) They have Yoga and Spanish class. Very close to restaurants, stores bus stops and parks. Its perfect place for solo or couple who wants to meet other travelers
Shower gets messy. Maybe longer shower curtain

Perfect location in a nice and safe area of Buenos Aires. Staff is super friendly and willing to help/explain. I felt like they went the extra mile to help.
There was wifi available but it didn’t really reach our room. In the common areas it worked perfectly. Of course in a hostel with many people you can’t expect it to be perfect in every corner.

Thank you very much for everything, excellent attention, the telephone attention would only improve since it was not very pleasant and I understand that the country situation and everything, but they should improve that no more
