Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I really liked this hostel. The staff were great, especially Lucho who was always helpful and gave great information regarding Cordoba. The breakfast was nice and the rooftop bar with craft beer was perfect after a long day of sightseeing. The location was perfect as well.

A Hidden Treasure In The Middle of Córdoba

This place was very friendly. The staff goes out of their way to e sure your stay is excellent. It’s a hidden treasure in the middle of the city. The staff is full of volunteers who are from the area or around the world. Every single person I interacted with went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable.

No recomendable

Imposible comunicarme, llegue a la puerta y me canse de tocar el portero eléctrico, nadie salió, nadie me atendió el teléfono. Y decidí buscar otro lugar. Un desastre
