staff was fun and engaging. i also like that sometimes their local friends would come hang out at the bar. heads up some of the rooms are right next to the bar, so it can be pretty loud to sleep but it was fine for me.

The staff were really friendly. Shame about the noise from the bar when i had an early flight booked for the following day. Bad bad sleep..

This was the worst hostel we stayed at, after a long time of travelling... We were looking forward to staying there, as the pictures looked nice and we like an arty environment. But the room was so smelly and dirty, just like the rest of the hostel. The room wasn't even cleaned after the last visitors, and the dirty towels were still on the floor, Also the garbage cans were still filled with dirty toiletpaper. After saying something about it, the girl at reception said to take care of it, but she didn't. The breakfast was not so good either. I must say that some staffmembers were very friendly, and we did get a little discount later, but we couldn't be happier when we left to go to a much better hostel close by.

I can recommend this place for all who like alternative and original spots. Place looks awesome with all this art and graffiti on the walls! But it's f...g dirty! So if you don't mind than go ahead!

It occupies an old building giving it more "genuine" feel. We got scrambled eggs for breakfst, what is rare in hostels in Argentina :). The neighborhood is a bit dodgy, but so is the whole city ;), however, following the stuff advice taking the main avenidas should get you anywhere with no trouble. We did not experience any problems but I suspect bad things happen there occasionally since we've been warned a couple of times not to go some places. This is not specific to this hostel though. If you decide to sleep there don't take any of the rooms facing the street. It turns into a busy, loudy artery in the early morning traffic and soundproofing is not something windows were designed for there.
