Liked: Nice and beautiful place to stay ... Close to the main places ... Friendly people work there.

Disliked: I would say that missed "hot air conditioning" inside de rooms ... Bedroom a little cold. And breakfast good, but could be better, with more kind of food (fruits, bread ...)

Liked: The room was clean and the breakfast wasn't too bad.

Disliked: When we checked in we were told we had to pay a lot more than what was quoted on hostelbookers as they didn't deduct the depoit we had paid. When we queried this and they deducted the depoist, we still had to pay a lot more than what was quoted as they insisted on converting currencies a few times, each time at a bad rate. We ended up paying around 15% more for the room than we were quoted. The room was a bit noisy and the thin curtains didn't cover the windows properly so let in a lot of light from the lamps directly outside the door. Although the location was near to the ferry terminal, it was a bit of a walk to the town centre, but this wasn't such a problem, as the town is quite small.

Liked: The staff were helpful and answered all our questions. When we asked about the wi-fi though it just seemed like nobody knew what to do. We were told to go to an internet cafe... not what we paid for.

Disliked: The wi-fi.

Liked: Not the best place to stay if you want to come here in a group and party. However for my partner and I it was perfect. Straight across the quiet road from the water and a park and about a 2min walk to the start of the historical centre, definitely a nice place to relax and come back to. The rooms are very nice and clean and the layout of the hostel is gorgeous. The best free breakfast we've had in quite a lot of travelling. The staff are very friendly and play some nice tunes to get you into the beachy, laid back vibe. A little more expensive than others, but a nice place to come if you want a bit more out of a hostel.

Disliked: Nothing. It didn´t have a bar which could be a draw-back for some, but we weren't looking for that this time round.

Liked: Florencia at the reception was very nice and helpful in finding stuff to do for the day because we were here just one day and wanted to have the best out of it.

Disliked: 60 USD is a little bit overpriced for the simple room, but the breakfast was nice and probabely it's just the price for accomodation here in Colonia del Sacramento.

Liked: There was a discrepency between the price quoted ar HostelBookers web site and the actual price the hostel quoted which meant that we were paying for 3 nights but actually staying for 2 nights. The staff could see the mistake and promptly corrected the mistake.
