Las Rejas Hostel Reviews

The Hostelz.com Review - Genuine, independent review you can trust.

Las Rejas Hostel is a hip hostel right in the heart of Salta.

The Location

Las Rejas Hostel has a superb location only two blocks from the main plaza in downtown Salta. It is close to majority of the attractions, restaurants, and the main shopping strip. To get here from the bus station, you can walk or take a bus, and from the airport there is also a bus that leads downtown that will bring you within walking distance to the hostel.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The rooms here are fairly spacious and comfortable. Some of the beds have shocking mattresses that roll you into the wall on the top bunk. Choose your bed wisely if they give you the choice. Also, there are traces of dirt and other bits and pieces within the sheets that indicate that the bed hadn't been changed after the previous person slept in it. Electrical sockets are also located in weird places around the room and there are only just enough outlets for one person each, but not charging beside you in bed for the most part.

The bathroom is large and has good hot water, with good water pressure in the shower and is kept in a clean state. If the bathroom inside the room is occupied, they have an extra bathroom next to the kitchen in the common areas.

Common Spaces

There are a few common areas here that are great to sit and meet people. They have a dining area filled with tables and chairs for hanging out and where in the mornings they serve a free breakfast of bread, fresh juice, and coffee or tea. There is another outdoor area with a couple of tables and chairs and a front room with a couch and television.

There is a kitchen here where you can prepare food if you don't want to eat out. They have a microwave, fridge, and a gas-top stove for cooking.

Summary

This is a great hostel, aside from the issues of bed cleanliness and the odd rubbish mattress. The staff are friendly and helpful, the Wi-Fi is quite good, and the location is excellent. They have a security door with a code so that the hostel itself is secure, but the rooms lack lockers to store individual valuables safely.

This is the nicest hostel i have stayed in so far in South America! the couple who run it are so helpful, and speak excellent english. the hostel is spotlessly clean, and you get fresh towels everyday. The location is perfect and there is a little travel agency attached to help plan day trips. All in all, the perfect hostel!

What a lovely hostel/hotel. The owners, Pilar and Ignacio, are really welcoming and do so much to make you feel at home in their hostel and Salta. The room rates are amazingly competitive, and the rooms are clean and tidy. It's one of our favourites in our whole three months in Argentina.

Serviceable hostel perfectly located on the edge of the town square. The staff upfront (Sergio) was helpful in setting up a taxi early next day to reach the bus terminal and thoroughly reviewed all the features of the property. The primary issues with the property were that the accommodations are dated and the insulation is wildly ineffective (the dorm was quite cold). Otherwise, a decent spot worth returning to.

Wouldn't recommend. If you are looking a cheap place to stay at asap it's fine but the bathrooms are in really bad shape (mold, broken toilets, very leaky faucets, unfinished floors, humidity, not deeply cleaned). I stayed at two different rooms and there was no windows or sunlight in none of them. The light in one of those didnt work, which made very difficult to find things in a room of 8. However, the staff is super helpful and kind and the location is great, but they need to invest.

I had such a lovely time at Las Rejas Hostel, the staff were very kind and extremely helpful. The ambience was also very welcoming people were laidback and kind and always up to have a chat. I would love to come back here in the future!

While it wasn't the most comfortable hostel ever, Hostel Rejas's staff and its functional, practical facilities (kitchen, washing machine, towels, breakfast, etc.) more than made up for the somewhat spartan room with no heating. In addition, its location at the centre of Salta makes it a convenient base to explore the city and the region. For more inexperienced hostel users, remember to bring your own padlock to close the lockers. All in all, a good value for money.

Location was great, breakfast was basic. Some maintenance problems in the bathroom. The bathroom in our dorm only had a thin plastic sliding door with no lock.

The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. This is one of the cleanest hostels that Ive stayed at and Most rooms have their private restroom. Great vibes. Loved my stay. Would stay here again.

The hostel itself and the breakfast isn't bad. But they put a family in the dorm room next to ours and the baby was crying all night, the dad was snoring all night and the mum was vomiting all night. Which then made the kitchen and bathroom feel very unclean. Our dorm's ensuite bathroom looked very run down, the toilet was leaking and the fosset was dripping. The lockers smelled and weren't clean. Beds didn't have ladders and weren't very stable.
