The room was adorable and the other guests were super nice. Shared kitchen is a plus. Hostel owner was helpful, genuinely making sure I had recommendations and plans for each day. Would recommend this place to anyone, and is a reason to come to Buenos Aires.

This was a beautiful place to stay. It had a rustic charm which we really enjoyed. The house had everything we needed. Good facilities, the room was comfortable and safe. It was very close to transport, so everything we wanted to see was close enough. The host was very friendly and helpful and gave good information about the local area as well as places to see in the city. We had a good stay.

With 2 underground lines on its doorstep this very quaint hostel is the perfect location to explore Buenos Aires. Incredible value for money. Away from the crowds, allows you to experience the real Buenos Aires and how its residents live. Diego is the perfect host providing very valuable local information.

Great place, value, service, and location

Diego was super friendly, responsive and helpful. I had late checkin and he was very accommodating, the place is well decorated and great value for the cost. Centrally located. Had AC in my room which was so helpful for the summer heat. He even waited outside with me as I left for my uber to come. Would definitely stay here again, very happy with it!

The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and Diego was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting downtown Argentina. He accommodates and allows us to check in early at like 10am. We got to hotel super early and I didn’t want to wait. So, this was a big plus. The service was exceptional as well. Would definitely send a friend there. Chef Daniel Baisman, Texas USA

Von außen sieht das Hostel nicht gut aus aber Innen ist Klasse. Diego ist ein guter Gastgeber und gute Tipps. Das Frühstück ist überschaubar. Sehr zentral gelegen, somit Strassenlärm bei geöffneten Fenster. 2 U-Bahn Stationen in der Nähe. Perfekt für Kurzurlaub.

A very cozy and inexpensive hostel

Swedish first: Ett mycket bra beläget hostel. Diego, som driver stället, är en alldeles övertrevlig och bra värd för det lilla boendet. Det finns kök där man kan tillaga och förvara egen mat. Att rummet var varmt hade vi räknat med då det är argentinsk sommar och inte AC på rummet. Är man känslig för gatuljud är detta ställe kanske inte det idealiska men det funkade väldigt bra för oss. Ställer har en otrolig charm, läget är perfekt och Diego mycket mån om sina gäster. Stark rekommendation på den Rosa Elefanten alltså. A very well located hostel. Diego, who runs the place, is a very nice and good host for the small accommodation. There is a kitchen where you can prepare and store your own food. The breakfast was perhaps on the simplest level, but for that price there is no reason to complain. We had expected that the room was warm as it is Argentine summer and it lacks AC. If you are sensitive to street noise, this place may not be ideal, but it worked very well for us. The place has incredible charm, the location is perfect and Diego cares a lot about his guests. Strong recommendation on the Pink Elephant, then
