Liked: The hostel is very funky and the rooms (we had a double) were very spacious and clean. The bathroom facilities varied greatly depending on what floor you were on but you had the option to use either the slightly eccentric colonial style bathrooms or the more modern, clinical shower block. Both were clean and had good showers.The bar area is basic but the drinks are very reasonable and there{s something happening most nights from tango music to all you can eat pizza events.

Disliked: The area the property is situated in is not great and it was dangerous to walk around after dark. The streets on either side are known trouble spots. It was fine if you took a taxi in the evenings.

Liked: Very stylish decorated hostel. I would certainly recommend this place.

Disliked: Internet connection is slooooooooow.... It seems as people are constantly downloading with their laptops as sometimes the connection speeds up, very occasionally though. The hostel owners should clam down on that!

Liked: The helpful, friendly staff and the awesome artwork!The mexican food night was a good deal & really tasty, as were the fresh made empanadas!

Disliked: We booked for private double, got private twin, with one of the singles having such a thin mattress you could feel the wood slat underneath! Kitchen has limited utensils. Don't bother with "All you can eat" Pizza night... it should be called 5 of the smallest pieces of pizza is all you'll get night!

Liked: Love the funky street art decor, the staff were pretty kickass too.

Disliked: Only problem was that the door to my 4 person dorm locked but could be pushed open easily anyway. Also, the hot water didn't work in the upstairs showers, then the cold water didn't work in one of the downstairs ones. The only one I could find with both hot and cold didn't have a showerhead. Overall it was great though.

Liked: All of the staff were very nice and friendly and never seemed irritated by all of my questions! This is a place to party,and so if your aim is to sleep, ask for a room downstairs so you are not right next to the bar. The bar is great, sometimes with live music. I was going to stay 1 night but ended up staying 4. The hostel is also located just a few blocks from the metro station. I didnt feel at all unsafe walking at night in the neighborhood, and there is an internet cafe just down the street. High recommended.

20 June 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: This was the coolest hostel I've ever stayed. Well, actually I had not believed in hostels and always used the hotels before, but this place changed my mind. The unique art throughout the building was so interesting. The only tiny thing could be, it was very invisible from the street that there was a hostel. Only a very small sign at the door. If you don't have the street address you will have very hard time finding it.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
