Ok I actually cannot rate this hostel highly enough. I loved it; I’d recommend to anyone, I’d definitely go back. The staff are super friendly and all lovely people. They are really helpful. They advised me which buses to catch, recommended places to go and were great for generally helping me navigate round BA in the short time I had... More

My wife and I spent four nights in a private room. The stay was fine however ended on a sour note at the end when we were leaving to go to the airport at 4.30am and asked the gentleman working on the front desk to order us a metered taxi. He made the phone call and said it would arrive... More

Stayed here in Oct 2012 in a 4 bed dorm. The hostel is in a good location, about 15 mins walk from the very centre. Although the street is a little quiet, we had no problems. The room was very well equipped with a reading light each, a big locker for your rucksack, plenty of space and a private shower... More

This hostel is fantastic, really well located for the sites of BA, you can walk to everything, there are also quite a few good restaurants within a couple of blocks of the hostel, the private rooms whilst a little expensive are amazing and are like a proper hotel so worth the extra cost. They have lots of free activities to... More

There's a reason this place has such great reviews--it's fabulous! The breakfast is good, the common areas plentiful, and the other guests interesting. The whole place was recently renovated, and you can tell. The rooms are not extremely large, but the rest of the experience more than makes up for it. Right across from a supermarket, near major attractions, and... More

I loved staying at America Del Sur in San Telmo. I found it on trip advisor when looking for recommendations of places to stay. The staff are the best around, helpful, knowledgeable and speak both English and Spanish. The place is modern and clean. I stayed in a 4 bedroom dorm and it had its own shower and toilet along...

I had more fun here than in my house, The best hostel I've ever been in is this one. Here there is pool table (free), table football (free), wifi and computer for our usage, the pool is amazing, and I was surprised to find out it has warm water in winter.

I paid 70 pesos for my bed in a 4 bed dorm with shower and toilet. The beds are comfy and There's a locker per person. The sockets were the lined type not the circular two prongs I'd been using in the rest if South America but they had other adapters at reception. The kitchen is small and could do... More

It's true -- this hostel feels more like a hotel than a hostel. They make your bed nice and tidy each day. The breakfast is generous by Argentina standards, including juice, yogurt, several cakes and nice bread. Staff is beyond polite and professional -- at the same time -- and somehow remember your name in a large hostel. Wifi is... More

Let me say that this property puts most hotels to shame. The service was unbelievable and the cleanliness is unparalleled. However, with all of this high-touch management, the space is a bit white-washed and doesn't lend itself toward much guest interaction. If you are traveling alone, you may want to try another hostel, but if you need a nice respite,... More
