This is a lovely homely hostel we had a great stay here. The staff are really friendly and helpful, they will go out of their way to help you and always remember your name. Nice dorms with comfy beds, the top bunk is pretty high but nice and sturdy. Bathroom per dorm so it doesn't get crowded and hot showers.... More

Great location, welcoming, friendly and informative staff, nice courtyard garden and a relaxed, 'just like home' feel. We had a hire car for touring Peninsula Valdes, and they had secured parking available. We stayed in a double room with shared bathroom. Lovely home made cakes for breakfast. Enough said, just book it!

We had only planned on staying at La Tosca for a couple of nights but due to sickness (dodgy food in Buenos Aires!), the staff were extremely helpful and even moved things around so we could have the same room for an additional 3 nights. We were greeted with a warm welcome and the staff spent about half an hour... More

I will admit I have only been here 1 hour, but I showed up at 6:30am and within 15 minutes was provided with a warm coffee and help cracking a lock on my bag. Service here is top notch, very friendly staff and extremely comfortable environment. Recommended!

My husband and I stayed here twice -- first for one night in a small private room with shared bathroom, which was fine. A little cramped and stuffy, but fine overall. We were able to leave some things at the hostel when we went to Peninsula Valdes for a few days, then returned to stay two more nights. This time... More

La Tosca will make your stay very enjoyable in Puerto Madryn. Apart from the homemade cake for breakfast the staff there is helpful with anything you need. I have to give special thanks to Eduardo here, who would always be very friendly and funny. It was great staying here and I recommend it to anybody. The place is perfectly clean,... More
