Arnaldo, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a basic hostel located in an old but charming building. The staff was very helpful and the location was very good to stores, restaurants and the subway. It was a clean but very simple room. You had to run the shower for a few minutes before you got hot water. There was no hair dryer available as the listing said. Other than a few loud guests at night, we had a very pleasant stay!

Internet was out the whole time and no toilet paper in room.
Loren, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Excellent location. Excellent response to inquiries when booking. Zero response after I’d paid and was inquiring about lost property. I hope there is room to elaborate later in the survey. Pretty much as described. No breakfast available. The building is built on a central atrium which funnels sound and it can be loud if the night staff are socializing late as they were when I stayed. Draws a good clientele.

2/10 Poor

Horrendous. Spend you money staying somewhere else

We were put in an attic where the window didn’t close properly. Even with heating on it was freezing. The shower was horrendous. We left after one night of the three we booked and stayed somewhere else instead.

2/10 Poor

Muy malo

No tenía nada de lo que dice. Wifi no funciona, no tenía bañera, no tenía cama grande, la tv del siglo pasado y el control remoto sin pilas. Carísimo para ser un Hostel

Satisfeitos e felizes!

Adoramos o ambiente e fomos muito bem atendidos e recebidos por toda equipe do Portal Dele Sur, achamos só que o box do banheiro era muito apertado, não colocam pano no chão então sair molhado se enxugar sem tapete ficava meio desconfortável. Quarto simples porém aconchegante, sem tv, mas como passamos maior parte do tempo passeando não nos fez falta. Recepção muito educados e atenciosos, limpeza e arrumação das camas todo dia muito boa, porém a cama de casal eram 2 camas de solteiros. No geral estamos satisfeitos e felizes, não temos MT frescura com essas coisas e adoramos a estadia!

La réception ne sait pas si la chambre est payée.

Bien situé, bonne ambiance. Des idées de tours gratuits ou non. Réservation du taxi.

10/10 Exceptional

Ein super Hostel! Bin 2x da gewesen und habe den Aufenthalt genossen! Tolle Menschen die dort arbeiten, super Frühstück, jeden Tag wird geputzt. Super Lage und tolle Aussicht von der Dachterrasse! Einziges Manko, die Ausstattung der Küche. Kochen eher schwierig da Töpfe, Pfannen etc fehlen bzw. Super alt sind. Aber wozu kochen? Essengehen ist in B.A super günstig:-) Wenn ich mal nach B.A zurückkomme, dann werde ich definitiv wieder in diesem einmaligem Hostel unterkommen!!

Lindo lugar

El lugar, esta muy bien ubicado, cerca de la Avenida 9 de Julio y de la Casa Rosada, lo único malo, fue que me cobraron el impuesto por pagar en dinero efectivo y no con tarjeta de crédito, y aun no me envían la boleta o factura mi correo.

MAS QUE RECOMENDADO! UN LUGAR DE ENSUEÑO

El ambiente fue realmente familiar y amistoso en todo momento. Hicimos varios amigos con mi novio y disfrutamos de Bs As. Gracias al hostel por brindarnos la posibilidad de dejar el equipaje y utilizar los espacios comunes aún despues de dejar la habitacion. Nos sentimos como en casa en todo momento. El mejor lugar que puedan elegir

6/10 Good

Recommend to those on a budget for its location

1. Location: really highly accessible, can walk around very easily 2. Wifi: just so so and sometimes I could even barely check my email 3. In-room facility: believe it or not there are ONLY two power sockets for six people! 4. Staff: really friendly and helpful 5. Price: can't complain much coz it comes with complimentary breakfast 6. Bathroom: it's wet and quite dark
