Liked: The staff is great, very helpful and inviting. If you want to kick back and relax for a bit this is the place to come. Out of the busy part of town but still within reach of everything. The beach is only a few minutes away.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: The hostel was clean, great house dog. Nice neighbourhood. Good kitchen. Helpful ebough staff.

Disliked: No, repeat, no atmosphere. Nice enough owners but not really warm, did not make me feel very welcome. I dont think they like running a hostel at all. Long walk to anywhere.

Liked: This place is like your home away from home. It was such a great group of people when I stayed there, so welcoming, open and generous. I could not imagine a better place to stay in Punta Del Este and you can be sure I will be staying here again. I really didn't want to leave...

Disliked: Nothing, it is not far to walk into town or to the beach, there are plenty of supermarket options for food or anything else you may need during your stay.

Liked: This place was fantastic - a real getaway for those tired of the big city scene. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable, and the kitchen is extremely clean and well equipped. The hosts were amazing, they even provided a traditional BBQ on our last night which was the best we have ever tasted. All in all, this is THE place to stay when in Punta del Este. Everything is a short, beautiful walk away, including the biggest supermarket we have ever seen.

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Rodriguo's generous help with “what to do” in his home town and area is only surpassed by his wife, Ale's warmth and hospitality. Lovely breakfasts. The house has a “lived-in” feel to it. If you're up for a hostal that is more like a homestay, this is for you. We hired a car for a day and explored North … it was great.

Disliked: Decor and fittings as bit tired.

Liked: Beautiful quiet accommodation, amazing hosts, great breakfast, we all had an incredible communal bbq the night we stayed. Hosts go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable but do so in a non-intrusive manner. Can't rate this place highly enough!!

Disliked: Location is not right in the middle of town but that appealled to us. Only 800m easy walk to beach or 800m easy walk to mall with atm & large supermarket.
