Buenos Aires Hostels

friendly staff

very basic, no window in the room, no soap provided, breackfast poor (it wa smy first time in a hostel in Argentina, this is not my range, now I know)

The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was great, near bus stops and the subway. Breakfast was simple, but good.

The structure is very, very old. The furniture is also old and very unappealing. The sheets seemed clean, but wer full of suspicious stains. The room had a very strong smell of cigarettes.

The people who were their were friendly,helpful, interesting. The bed was very comfortable. The ambience cool, hip, Indie.

The bathroom was often out of toilet paper and paper towels and the floor was not kept dry in the bathrrom with the shower.

The open air design is lovely and the constant presence of socializing travelers presents a warm ambience.

Location is good. The big problem is noise, maybe this can be reduced if use double glass windows in it and noiseless door.

After the Ritz gave away our room (despite emailing them to notify them of our late arrival), they found us another private room at another hostel. The desk manager was courteous in helping, as he understood our frustration with having no room. So, staff was friendly.

The booking.com and Ritz Hotel website indicate that this is a budget hotel. Make no mistake, it is a hostel. Very different. Shared bathrooms, etc. ok but loud location. Wish I knew before booking.
