We stayed several nights at La Posta, before and after a road trip in Salta and Jujuy provinces. Our private double room in the garden was convenient, and the hostel common rooms offered all we needed. The owners, two brothers, are very friendly and helped us out on numerous occasions. The have excellent knowledge on where to go within and... More

La Posta is a great hostal. The brothers who run this place are very helpful and welcoming. The location is great (close to centre and close to busstation), the kitchen is spacious and the patio is a nice place to meet other travellers. All in all it's a great place for backpackers. (Not the partycrowd, that is.) However: there is... More

Location is brilliant, close to the parks and a short walk to the main plaza, shopping areas, restaurants and bus station. The service is above and beyond - now don't go expecting The Ritz, it's just a hostel - but I was made to feel really welcome. It's clean, it's safe, lovely garden and nice and quiet - great value...

My boyfriend and i picked this place because of the rave reviews on tripadvisor, however apart from having helpful staff and a good breakfast, we found there was nothing exceptional at all about this hostel. Having backpacked for the last six months, we've stayed in quite a few and just can't understand what all the fuss is about on this... More

I stayed 2 nights in a 3 bed dorm. Ariel and Cristian, the two brothers who own the hotel, are super nice and very helpful. In the evenings its a very nice get together with other travellers and the two hosts. The location is also great, everything within walking distance. I can only recommend this hostal!

Nice, clean hostel with good breakfast and a good location about 5 minutes from the central square in Salta. The room at the front is quite noisy so try to get one at the back of the hostel which are very quiet.

So there is a reason this hostal is number 1 - it really is one of the nicest places I've stayed at. This is down to the three brothers from Buenos Aires and the way they run the place. The bed was comfortable, shower was powerful and hot, breakfast was fresh with good quality juice and the place was spotless.... More

Good location, helpful staff, cleaned very thoroughly every day. Salta can be humid at this time of year so fans in rooms help. Good internet connection. Good recommendations for local services. Relaxed atmosphere.
