Milhouse Hostel Review

This lovely and lively hostel goes the extra mile to make backpackers feel welcome, with pool tables, televisions, and concierge services. The house, which dates from the late 1800s, has been tricked out with funky artwork and accessories. Its three floors overlook a beautiful tiled patio, and all lead out to a sunny terrace, which the hostel skillfully uses to entertain guests regardless of their interests. Morning yoga classes may well be followed by rowdy beer-swilling asados (barbecues). The dorm rooms are clean and big, and most have private bathrooms. At night the surrounding streets can be dodgy, so take precautions.

    Milhouse Hostel Review

    Honestly a horrible stay... It was loud, there was a club 2 doors down and the one night I wanted to get sleep, I couldn´t. Had to switch to La Rocca Hostel.
