The terrace is the standout - looking into the mountains while sipping on a wine is something else. Everything is nice and clean, and is a very welcoming environment! The staff are incredible - particularly Diego and Allejandro who are very approachable and happy to speak both English and Español!

Central hostel with lovely staff and lots of bathrooms. We loved the hot showers and a hairdryer! They also let us checkin early which was great.

A Social Hostel With A Great Rooftop Terrace

Great rooftop terrace for relaxing and socialising. Friendly, helpful staff. I extended my stay here three times from 2 days to a week and then 2 weeks. There are 2 kitchens which means that kichen access is never an issue

Nice hostel with a rooftop to meet other travellers.

Nice hostel near the city center. Rooftop terrace is good for meeting other travelers, on my first night I met people to do a roadtrip with the next day. Well equipped kitchen. When I went on a roadtrip they stored my bags for free.

- nice hostel, nice rooftop with Cerro San Bernardo view - well equipped kitchen - some rooms are big and comfy - close to the historical center of Salta and still walking distance from bus terminal - lockers to leave your bags. We were lucky that enough lockers were available so that we could leave our luggage for a few days (tour outside Salta) with a 2nd night booked after the tour.

A proper old-fashioned backpacker hostel. Lots of airy space, and great roof to drink wine and swop tales

I truly recommend to stay at this hostel if you are looking for a local experience with a fair price

The location for this hostel was perfect for what I was looking for. You arrive to the center in a 10 minutes walk. The terrace is fantastic, with a beautiful view of the mountain in front of it. Above all, the best was the staff. They were helpful with everything I needed and provided historical information and tips about the region.

It's a true Backpacker gem in Salta! It's a place, where you meet people from all over the world on the spacious rooftop. It's a good option to learn or improve your Spanish, too :) I want to point out: this hostel has TWO WELL EQUIPPED AND BIG KITCHENS! the whole place is generally clean, and offers loads of space to hang out. It's within walkable distance to the terminal, the centre for shopping, restaurants, bars, car rental companies and Western unions! After 5 months of traveling in South America definitely one of the best hostels we've been to (if you are also tired of the hipster hostel chains)!!

Incredibly cheap and good value for money, which made up for the fact there was no breakfast. There’s a couple of really nice breakfast places right next to the hostel. Decent location in Salta too

The staff was so helpful and friendly. When I got sick they called a doctor and went to the pharmacy for me. The rooftop balcony is lovely and the location is just perfect. I walked everywhere without a problem.
