This hostel is guaranteed price/quality the best that San Telmo can offer. If you like to meet new people, have a beer in the garden and socialize with the world, this is the place to be.

The worst is that the bed had bed bugs and I got bitten all the way down both arms and some on my back, horrible. The toilets and dorms were unclean as well. Would not recommend unless you want to go really cheap. Otherwise, the staff were really helpful and friendly and there was a good social atmosphere. The location... More

I guess these types of hostels are tolerable if you are short of money and all the good places are fully booked. Very basic rooms and beds. Our room had a leaky roof and leaky toilet. The big problem is the horribly loud music in the lobby, where it is impossible to relax even during breakfast. Also makes discussing with... More

Stayed here for a few days in February and it was a great place to crash. The location is excellent. We walked almost everywhere, and it's near buses and subway, but we didn't use them. We got the private double room with AC, and while it was a little spendy for how basic it was, it was still a good... More

We were very happy with our stay in Che Lagarto Buenos Aires- great value and extremely good location. Walking distance from San Telmo and very convenient for buses and the subway.

Messed up our booking Cramped dorms Some of the staff are clueless FILTHY kitchen (though you can't blame the staff for that) and nowhere near enough utensils Well overpriced bar - even for BA Think about paying a little more and staying in Palermo or San telmo main part

I really liked this hostel. It has more modern amenities than most other hostels in this area it seems. It's also close to the more hip and downtown kind of places I'm used to back in the states. Some nice bars and hidden pubs around here. Very cool. Staff is really friendly.
