BEDBUGS / PAREDES DE LA CAMA I had a terrible experience in this hostel! When I woke up, I was eye to eye with a bedbug. When I asked for a compensation for my extra expenses (laundry at 60°C etc), the boss started seriously threatening me. Absolute terrible experience. They knew about the bedbugs already btw…
Es el hostal mas feo en el que he estado. Me imaginaba algo no muy bueno por el precio. Pero no me esperaba a una casa de mas de 100 años en estado deplorable. La mayoría de los que ahí laboran son inmigrantes y se les paga por debajo de la mesa, tienen cero experiencia. Hay un perro en el hostal. En el patio se van acumulando las mierdas del perro y ningún empleado ni la pareja de propietarios se molestan en recoger mierdas de perro de 3 o mas semanas.
It's the ugliest hostel I've ever been in. I was imagining something not very good for the price. But I didn't expect a 100-year-old house in deplorable condition. Most of the people who work there are immigrants and if they get paid under the table, they have zero experience. There's a dog in the hostel. Dog shit keeps piling up in the yard and no employee or couple of owners bother to pick up dog shit from 3 or more weeks.
Photos mensongères, nous avions une chambre privée qui fermait avec un cadena situé entre deux dortoirs en face de la salle de bain.. La propreté n’est pas au rdv très déçue je ne recommande pas
Liars photos, we had a private bedroom that closed with a chain located between two dorms in front of the bathroom.. the cleanliness is not at rdv very disappointed i do not recommend it
The hostel doesn’t have a welcoming environment, except the girl with the glasses and the guy with the hat, the rest of the staff is very unwelcoming, and treats you like your stay is an inconvenience to their lives. There are no soaps to wash your hands and the water pressure in the showers are barely enough. The whole place feels very sketchy. Most of the lockers are not working and they open the front door to whoever rings the bell. Most of the furniture is in deteriorating conditions.
The room are very hot There is no fan or ac. And be aware of bedbugs
This is not a nice hostel. Food got stolen from the fridge multiple times during my stay not only from me but from others aswell. Not a hostel vibe there either.
missing some basic stuff in the dorms -- insufficient lockers and even wall power outlets. rooms are small and crowded.
I traveled as a solo female traveler here and felt extremely uncomfortable to the point I left in the night and booked a different place. I have never written a review before but I felt compelled to write about my negative experience here. The photos truly didn’t align with the actual scenery of the place. It’s far more run down, dirty and mostly men (older not good vibes) in the hostel. They did give me my money back but they were hostile and I really didn’t appreciate it. Needs improveme...
It works, but the atmosphere is quite dark and depressing.No AC only a loud fan and in the summer the heat is just pressing here and tou can't sleep. It is quite rundown and only has three small and dark bathrooms. The patio is quite nice but it could need a little bit of modernisation like the complete hostel itself. Price and location are why you go here, not for anything else.
The hostel needs to be renovated. The beds, pillows, kitchen, rooms are dirty. There’s 3 bathrooms for the whole hostel. Got bit throughout the night. Beds are hard. 3 plugs for the room all located in one part. 6 bed room is so small. Can hear everything through the walls especially when the room is next to reception and they’re just chatting. Also loads of strange people staying. Basically the whole thing is falling into disrepair. Hostel staff are the only good thing.

When I arrived at the Hostel I had to Ring a Bell to get in. Unfortunatly no Code-Lock. Then i checked in and that was really hard because the guy at the reception did not speak english and he wanted me to pay 40$ even though it Said 24$ on Hostelworld. When i finally checked in I realized that there were cockroaches all over the Place. When i reported this at the reception they declined a refund. Checked out and contacted them via WhatsApp a day after for the refund. After 3 Days no answer…
Mi estancia en Avokanto ha sido una experiencia muy especial. El ambiente es familiar, con muy buena energía, y todo está siempre impecable gracias al cuidado y atención del equipo. Es una casa antigua con mucho encanto que conserva la sensación de hogar en plena naturaleza. Pasé casi un mes allí y, además de sentirme muy bien acogida, me inspiré mucho gracias a la gente que conocí y a la autenticidad del lugar. Sin duda, lo recomiendo.
My stay in Avokanto was a very special experience. The atmosphere is familiar, with very good energy, and everything is always impeccable thanks to the care and attention of the team. It is an old house with a lot of charm that preserves the feeling of home in the middle of nature. I spent almost a month there and, in addition to feeling very well received, I was very inspired thanks to the people I met and the authenticity of the place.
I really enjoyed my time here. I stayed a full month and the staff is helpful, respectful, and friendly. Aprendé mucho español aquí y hice muchos nuevos amigos. The garden/outside area is beautiful and the staff cooks daily, so you can usually get good food at a decent price even when the shops are closed. The kitchen is big and easily used by a few people at a time. The staff keeps the place clean all day and night and they keep it quiet at night so everyone can sleep.
good hostel
Good hostel good hostel
Solo me quede una noche, lindo ambiente buena disposición de parte del personal del Hostel.
I only stayed one night, nice atmosphere and good disposition from the staff of the Hostel.
It works, but the atmosphere is quite dark and depressing.No AC only a loud fan and in the summer the heat is just pressing here and tou can't sleep.

Un desastre, no avisan que hay feria lis miércoles,y el auto no lo pude sacar de la cuadra en todo el día, la de recepción u a inútil total,.
A disaster, no warning that there is a fair on Wednesday, and the car couldn't get out of the block all day, the front desk a total waste.
The hostel needs to be renovated. The beds, pillows, kitchen, rooms are dirty. There’s 3 bathrooms for the whole hostel. Got bit throughout the night. Beds are hard. 3 plugs for the room all located in one part. 6 bed room is so small. Can hear everything through the walls especially when the room is next to reception and they’re just chatting.

Hostel bom pelo custo-benefício. Para mim, os dois maiores problemas é que não aceita cartão, e o armário é bem pequeno, então não cabe nem a sua bagagem de mão. Pelo menos no meu quarto, não tinha tomada perto da cama.
For me, the two biggest problems were that it doesn't accept credit cards, and the closet is quite small, so it doesn't even fit your hand luggage.
Decent little spot in a nice part of the city
Generell war es nicht schlecht, jedoch sind da nur dauerhafte Bewohner drin. Die Gegend ist bisschen gruselig und gewöhnungsbedürftig. Also insgesamt ist es einfach kein Hostel für Reisende
Generell war es nicht schlecht, however there are only permanent residents in it. The area is a bit creepy and needing to get used to. Also overall it is simply kein Hostel für Reisende
The place has a great atmosphere and community, the staff is very friendly, Nico and Steffa are very helpful, same with all volunteers. They have a very sweet dog and she brings a lot of life into the place. I really recommend staying here 😁
El hostel en si no lo recomiendo. Está bastante descuidado, no tenía ventilador, jabon, toalla y la verdad es que no me sentí seguro en ningún momento. El personal muy bien, son todos amables y ayudan un montón. Siempre hay alguien limpiando.
The hostel itself I don't recommend it. it is quite sloppy, I didn't have fan, soap, towel and the truth is I didn't feel safe at any time. the staff is very nice, they are all friendly and helpful. there is always someone cleaning.

Super hostel , je recommande ;)
Super hostel, I would recommend it to you;)
La gente que trabaja en el hostel fue increíblemente amable y nos ayudó muchísimo. La atención es excelente. La ubicación es ideal. Sin embargo, no recomiendo el hostel porque: Los servicios son muy precarios incluso para un hostel económico. En los baños no había ni jabón (aunque sí estaban limpios) y uno se tapaba. La ducha era mala, una vez se me cayó en la cara mientras me bañaba. Los sillones, camas y colchones son demasiado viejos, nada cómodos. Nos robaron cosas que dejamos...
The people who work at the hostel were incredibly friendly and helped us a lot. The service is excellent. The location is ideal. However, I do not recommend the hostel because: The services are very precarious even for a budget hostel. In the bathrooms there was no soap (although they were clean) and one was covered. The shower was bad, once it fell on my face while I was bathing. The sillons, beds and mattresses are too old, nothing comfortable. We were robbed of things we left in the fridge
Todo muy lindo, solo un poco sucio los vamos. ubicación perfecta. Muy cerca al parque rodó
Everything is very nice, just a little dirty let's go. perfect location. very close to the rodeo park
