Brilliant!
I stayed in this hostel for about a week and it was amazing, the place was very clean, and it had a homey flavor to it. One of the best features for me is that it was literally across the road from a "boliche" (night club) where I stayed until the sun came up and you only had to cross the road to go back "home," no taxis or night buses needed! I've traveled in different countries but had to go to the end of the world to find the friendliest receptionist in this hostel -- Sebastian (he works at night) and he is incredibly friendly and nice. The girls who work at night are also very helpful. Thank you to all of you for making my stay a memorable one!

Wonderful atmosphere. Bar in the lobby with big comfy couches. The area is always full of tourists sharing their adventures over a Quilmes. The staff is so friendly and helpful. Highly recommended! Breakfast included -- really good bread, jam, coffee, and eggs you must prepare yourself. Large kitchen with everything you need. Every night we were there, a large group of travelers would join forces and cook big meals together either in the kitchen or on the grill outside. This place is everything a hostel should be.

The only thing I can say is I love the place! The staff is great, very welcoming and helpful, the rooms are nice and warm and they have an awesome livingroom. Unfortunately I had to move on, but believe me, no way that you want to leave this place anymore. Also because Ushuaia and surroundings are amazing of course!

Excellent. Underfloor heating, keeps you toasty when its freezing outside. Staff are really friendly, and not in your face. Very chilled and laid back atmosphere. Recomend it to everyone.

It was so good I ended up staying two weeks after my return from Antarctica. Jon and Stuart are great hosts who have made probably the best hostel in Argentina — fantastic, fantastic!

This hostel has a great atmosphere in the bar, and the owners Jonathan and Stuart have worked really hard to make this the best place in Ushuaia. The staff are really helpful, and the under floor heating is good, as is the book exchange and free Internet. The only reason that we haven't given it 5 stars is because for 2 nights we were woken by loud music from the bar at 4 and 3 a.m., and we were in the room furthest away. Those in the closest rooms were up playing cards for 3 hours and a bit grouchy in the morning. Also, the bathrooms smell really bad and are quite a distance from the rooms. If these things were put right, we'd give top marks.

This is a great and fun place. The staff are very nice. The only risk is you might get stuck there because you will love it so much!
