Big hostel in the center of the city. Good for young people and big groups.

This hostel is in an excellent location unless you are coming on a Sunday in which case everything in the centre is closed. its 2 blocks from the main square and right near the pedestrian malls also. I booked to stay in a 4 Bed dorm but got put in to a 6 bed one instead. I would have complained but as it turns out I was the only one in the room anyway... Ensuite bathroom was quite large which was good. There were mainly Argentinians staying at the hostel. I didn´t meet another English speakers at all and thus wasn´t able to converse with anyone other than the staff...

Location is ok.
However if you're going to stay in Cordoba i would suggest some other locations such as Nueva Cordoba.

No heat in the rooms and very little in the common area. Staff don´t speak English. When I asked a question in Spanish they gave me a map and pointed to the city´s tourist office. Cheap but no vibe and very cold.

This hostel was great! After 5 months of living and traveling in Argentina, this is the first time I've ever extended a stay in a hostel, which says a lot about how much I enjoyed it. The shower was easily the best one I've had in Argentina. The water heated up really quickly and would stay hot as long as you wanted, or you could turn on the cold water for a nice warm temperature--as opposed to turning the water instantly cold, which has usually been my experience. The water pressure was perfect, too. Breakfast was 5 pieces of bread with jelly and butter offered, and tea or coffee, which sounds like more than other hostels offer. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were all really friendly and helpful. I had a private single room that was small and bare, with just a bed, lockers, end table, and chair, but the bed was comfortable and really warm, and the heater worked great--a big plus since I came in the winter. I couldn't get the wi-fi to work and the 2 hostel computers were really slow, but that wasn't a huge deal. The location was great, really close to the central plaza and the historic district, and there's an ATM right next door. All in all, I loved the hostel, and the price for a single room was a great deal.

Nice big rooms but our toilet was broken and the owner showed us how to get into the cistern rather than fixing it himself! Internet was also broken for half our stay. Smoking in the common areas which the bedrooms are just off. Overall not a great stay.

Pros: Good central location. Not busy so can get a good nights sleep. Guy on at night is friendly and helpful. Cons: Measly breakfast (just two bread rolls, no more), not the friendliest staff other than the night guy, door to our double room didn't shut from the inside so we had to wedge a chair under it at night, didn't feel like value for money.

Great location, great value. Rooms near reception a bit noisy with TV on and people chatting but that to be expected as it is a sociable hostel.

Great old building. Staff were excellent. Value for money. Perfect if you need a private room close to the centre.

The owner is a really nice guy and the hostel is beautiful once you get inside. Great location, easy to walk from the bus station (10 blocks) and smack in the middle of the city.

I got a single room here but got placed right next to the bathroom. The reason I got single room was because I was ill and needed some peace and quiet to recover, so this location wasn't ideal. Having said that the hostel overall is good and clean. The staff are helpful but struggled with english for the most part but it is possible to ask for and get what you need in english - some spanish helps. Breakfast is actually quite minimal, with just a couple of small pastries to eat and coffee. I still quite liked it here, though on my return from Capilla del Monte to Cordoba, I went to Baluch Backpackers instead to see if I could find better.......and Baluch's is better. Try Alvear if you can't get in to Baluch's or you don't like it there.
