As far as people who stayed there and the people who manage this place, they are great. Friendly and helpful. The property, though, can do better. Instead of stuffing 10 beds (5 bunks) into a small room with a bathroom, please consider reducing the numbers of bed and provide comfort.||||In summer, the prices of everything in Punta del Este go skyhigh. I feel that for the USD35 I paid for a dorm bed should be at least tasteful and comfortable. An air cond in the room perhaps? Instead of a small stand fan which pathetically has no space to place but just being left on one corner which blocked the door opening.||||For breakfast, there were only while loaf of bread and a few biscuits. Is it so expensive to provide at least a jar of jam or their famous Dulce de Leche (I don't know what it is) instead of just placing a loaf of white bread on the counter? If not, even butter will do.||||For location, it is very central. Short 3-min walking distance from the bus terminal, and truly 100 meter to the beach.||||I know there are backpackers who can cramp up in the worst conditions, but paying that much for a dorm bed, I would expect a little respect. I have stayed in dorms that are half the price even on high season but they have put some thoughts about care and kindness into arranging the room for comfort.||||What I have experienced there is unacceptable.

Read moreThis hostel is the perfect definition of cow-house. We booked 3 beds in a bedroom for 6, but to get to the bedroom, we had to go through another room with capacity for 10 people. In other words, we paid for a bedroom for 6 and stayed in a place for 16. An absurd. We weren't informed before, but to use the lockers with safety, it's needed to rent a lock, and there's not enought locks for location. We always had to leave our belongings in the car. The car, for lack of parking, had to stand on a street apart. The place is very poorly sanitized. The carpet of the room, the walls and the bathroom are always dirty. There is only one shower for all guests. The bedroom is stuffy and had only one fan, and the this fan was spoiled. The service is terrible, it seems that the mother came out and let the boys taking care of the hostel. When I asked to change the fan to one of the boys, he told me that I would wait to tackle. I was waiting in the bedroom for awhile and when I realized, the boy had not even given importance to my request. He preferred to stay updating your social networks. Reserve 3 nights, but due to the poor condition of the stay, we get only 2, and it's obvious they didn't give me back the value for the third night. I prefer don't return to Punta del Este anymore if I'll have to stay in this hostel again. I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS...
Read moreIt's one of the cheapest hostels during the summer season. Centrally located and a few minutes from the bus station.||But when I'm paying over US$ 20 per night, I would have hoped for a better breakfast than coffee and a biscuit. There is some powdered juice mix but you might as well drink sugared water.||The dorms are small and fit as many beds as possible.||Locks on downstairs toilet doors are all broken. This type of neglect doesn't happen overnight. ||WiFi is shockingly slow and intermittent. If you blame this on the amount of people, why don't you upgrade, the majority of other hostels seem to cope.||I would not recommend this hostel unless you are on a really...
