    Room was very very noisy (from the street every night and morning). Not many plugs in the shared rooms.

    The property is in a good location. Lots of common spaces. Nice chilled vibe. Staff friendly.

    Paying with card costs 30% extra which is outrageous and since Argentina is a very tricky place to get cash it’s not really logical. Also it’s a very grubby place with a lot of older long term residents.

    Great location and you it’s worth the price since the price is so low.

    There was a mold smell in the room and some of the chairs need repairing. It may be just the season, but it didn’t have a very fun social vibe. There was no soap or toilet paper in the communal bathroom.

    Granados Hostel has a great location in San Telmo. Bright colors and beautiful murals make the old building come to life. Great terraces. If you need a lowkey place, it’s a great price and good location. The staff are friendly. It’s a great price.

    Don't expect a very clean hostal. But its one of the cheapest in town so I am okay with that.

    The nightshifter Leonardo has a very good energy. We had nice conversations and he is always laughing

    Limited basic but clean, fresh shared bathroom facilities (separate men's and womens) on different levels. The kitchen has a good commercial stove with well used pots and pans but lacks basic utensils such as knives, forks, glasses etc.but these can be bought cheaply st nearby supermarket A large smart TV on the kitchen dining wall for those who want to watch YouTube with their phone. Commercial fridges ( a little noisy) but adequate.

    Dormitorios on upper floor are quiet for a city hostel. Little traffic noise and far enough away from kitchen patio area below where guests who may have a drink or two after returning from nearby restaurants, bars may be talking etc but is hardly heard inside the upper dormitorios. Most bedrooms and only have four beds and are air-conditioned which is virtually silent. Windows and door open on to outside balcony/passageway for fresh air and sun light as desired. Some rooms have small table and chair to use a laptop etc.

    Amazing location right in the heart of San Telmo. The staff are super cool and it’s a great place to speak Spanish with natives if you want to practise! There’s a small terrace that is nice to chill on too.

    The mens toilets were a tad dirty and one of the doors were broken. The terrace was nice but needs an upgrade, and as there’s no locks on dorm rooms the safety of your belongings didn’t exist.

    The Staff were really nice on checking in and the terrace was nice to sit up and catch some rays.

    The facilities are really basic and are lacking at times: my room had no curtains, was quite cold at night and the beds weren't very comfortable.

    I would recommend this hostel only if you're planning to go out until the earlier hours of the morning as there is a LOT of noise from the streets at night.

    Furniture could be better repaired in the large area; folks asked to change beds (a couple of different times) and were told no.

    I got smiles and welcome greetings often, was always helped with my heavy bag, and it just felt comfortable there.

    DON'T BOOK THIS! Sick making. I've never seen a place like this. Avoid bedroom 104, it was like a hole. It seemed like a cavern! There was musty smell. How can you have rooms like this? It was like from a horror movie. I stayed 15 minutes and I made the check out. I had to go to another hostel. For the same price this is like a paradise! Don't book this place!

    The receptionist was kind but how could you give a normal person a bedroom like this? It's like if you work in a fruit store and give people rotten fuits

    It was dirty and unhygienic, as if the hostel was rarely cleaned. There was chewing gum on the sheet of my bed. Guests were drinking alcohol in the room. There was noise from the bars and clubs outside. I stayed in another hostel for the same price - and it was very nice there: quiet and clean

    The girl at the reception smiles very sweetly and she is very polite, but it doesn't mean anything, because she works at this hostel and knows about its terrible conditions
