Despite the 'good looking' of this hostel, it lacks of basic security measures. There are unventilated rooms in the basement. Some of them have small fans that only lead to adjoining rooms that are closed too. The basement´s emergency exit is locked permanently! If it were open it would only give access to an adjoining closed room! Fake emergency door!... More

I stayed at Damajuana in February and again in April. It's a great hostel, social atmosphere, the staff is friendly, a restaurant on site, and a pool! The location is great, and you can book all your activities through them.

Overall it is not a bad hostel, but it can be much better. - The main problem of the hostel is its staff. They do not really care about the customer and do not hesitate to show it you. It is even written at the Lonely Planet guide, and it is true... - The big dorms are aweful with no... More

Just returned from Mendoza and 4 nights at the hostel. First thing to say its in a brilliant location in Mendoza right near good resturants, shops and Parque San Martin which you must go to. The hostel itself has lots of good points, pool, garden, good socialising room, table tennis. Internet is very poor and there is only one terminal.... More

I actually stayed earlier than my date, but never took the time to write a review. I was recently reading my old travel blog and realized that I should warn people about staying here. Stay somewhere safe, not here. My boyfriend and I attended one of the group dinners at the hostel and the woman from the front desk and... More

This place could be fantastic, but it has some huge issues it needs to work through first. The staff are rude and unhelpful, they clearly make fun of you in Spanish to the other staff when they know you don´t speak it. I booked a small female dorm with an ensuite and when i arrived was put in a large... More

Extremely overpriced hostel, the dorms gave onto each other so an 8 bed dorm actually had the noise of a 16 bed. Bathrooms and toilets were poorly cleaned and we found a bedbug crawling on the pillow in the morning. We moved after 1 night to another place in the centre of town with our own double room...all for the... More

like the last review the staff was very friendly, but this hostel is certainly not worth the 70 pesos they charge (the most expensive hostel I have stayed at during 6 months in South America). Loud, loud, loud, loud all night long. I had a cold and decided to make it an early night, but was kept awake by constant... More
