Nice hostel
The staff at the hostel were very friendly and helpful. The room was nicely heated in a very cold week. Of course, my stars are based on expectations vs. reality. A very good hostel for the price I've paid.

Bedbugs, dirty bathrooms...
Hotel had a good friendly atmosphere, but wifi was poor quality, the downstairs bathroom reeked of urine, kitchen was very small and crowded, and I was absolutely covered in bedbug bites by the time I left. The people there are very friendly, but I would recommend spending a few extra dollars to stay elsewhere.

Great staff, homey, but rustic for sure
I was treated like gold by the staff, and was made to feel very much at home. The place and neighborhood are rundown, but basically clean, and the water was hot. For what you pay, you couldnt expect more. Made my two week stay in Buenos Aires easy.

Terrible!!!!Awful!!!
La atención fue malísima. No había recepcionistas ni para abrir la puerta ni cuando se necesitaba. No tenía mapas que algo muy necesario incluso cuando tengas toda la tecnología. El desayuno estaba incluido. Pero lo tenias que ir a tomar en la esquina, en una cafetería al parecer en la esquina del hotel; osea la cafeteria no sabían nada, es más creo que nunca abrieron. Por lo tanto no tome el desayuno.

Adoeci pelo mofo
Tinha feito reserva para 4 noites, porém, na primeira noite já foi o suficiente para e quem estava comigo adoecer devido à quantidade de mofo que há nos quartos. Estou fazendo uso de medicações até o momento, sendo que já fazem seis dias que passei por lá. Não teve condições de ficar mais que uma noite nesse hostel. Tenho os horários de chegada e saída gravados.

Ida a Buenos Aires. Orientación Educacional.
Fuimos con un grupo de colegas de Arica - Chile a un Congreso LatinoAmericano de Orientación Educacional como invitados por la organización RELAPRO por tres días. Busqué un hostel para mi y mis colegas dentro de las cercanías de la Universidad de la Marina Mercante donde era la reunión. Llegamos al hostel "Vi Luz y Entré" donde no me arrepiento para nada y volvería a llegar al mismo lugar.

Horrible
No merece la pena, desayunos lamentables, apenas un café o te pan y mermelada, aseos súper sucios, higiene 0, al igual que el resto del hostel, habitaciones sucias, poco iluminadas, y desordenadas. Se salva el personal que son muy amables. Pero yo no voy a volver
