Liked: Staff was very friendly and the location was central. Atmosphere feels warm and artsy.

Disliked: Half the rooms look out onto a very noisy alleyway filled with bars that open every night and stay open until dawn. One of the staff at the reception was unclear about the policies of Hostelbookers in regards to the 10% deposit, and ended up mixing up my laundry with that of other guests!

Liked: Location - literally 5 mins taxi from Buquebus, right in Ciudad vieja and a few minutes walk on the other side from 18 de Julio Avenue and the main drag. Very friendly and helpful staff. Cute kitsch use of the decaying decor - lots of bizarre, fun decoration (eg, an Evita portrait above a huge goldfish tank). Free WiFi worked flawlessly.

Disliked: tiny dorm-style bed; even tinier room; worn, grubby black velveteen throw on the bed; not dirty, but dusty room. at least, i did avoid the noise from the bars below on the other side.

Liked: Not much really!

Disliked: This is definitely a place to stay if you want an experience. But I was pretty freaked out by this property and expected to meet the headless horseman down the corridor. Breakfast was shocking, cold coffee and chocolate cake???? We were in a room down the road from a massive party that went on till 6am. We did not sleep!!

Liked: The location is very central and the architecture and atmosphere of this old building is very nice, almost like a museum. Staff was very friedly. It is not a luxury place but pretty good value for the low price.

Disliked: There was WiFi in the rooms but connection was sometimes bad, esüpecially in the evening (peak time?). As far as I understood double rooms have private bathrooms, twin rooms don't. But the public showers/touilets were very clean. Breakfast was included, but very basic (two slices of toast, some butter & margarine, no cheese or ham; cornflakes and milk and coffee/tea were avcailbale, but no water or juice).

Liked: The building is really old and has beautiful high ceilings etc. Its right in the old part of town, near independance square and the Sun theatre. A perfect location. The rooms were clean and tidy with what we needed. Nothing flash. The staff were amazing. Danilor in particular was extremely helpful and friendly. He would give us ideas of things to do, allsorts and spoke great English. Also great breakfast.

Disliked: The lounge area has an Xbox and as such once guys take over, its pretty hard to use the lounge area for anything else. Other than that, I guess the bathrooms are a bit dated, but they are clean and thats what counts at the end of the day. It can be noisy at times as their are some bars in the area, but didnt bother me with some basic ear plugs, even with open windows.

Liked: Everything was good.

Disliked: Hostelbookers' map of the location was totally wrong causing us much aggravation in findig it. Splendido is not located on Rincon. Hostelbookers needs to correct this mistake. Breakfast was supposedly not included, yet was.
