Never have I stayed in a hostel with such a hospitable owner before. Annette really made us feel welcome, and it was super nice to meet her family as well. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean, and we had a really good stay.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, in the middle of everything but quiet. Extremely warm and friendly hosts! Made me feel very welcome, whilst also giving me my space. Also lots of tips for travel locations ect. The guy put the FA cup final on the TV for me without me asking, because my team was playing. Seems to be the best budget option in Montevideo.

    Great location in the middle of the old town. The hostel is inside of one of the most beautiful buildings with old school with old school elevator. It is spread out to several floors and the rooms are kept clean and organised. The stuff is very helpful.

    This is possibly one of the best hostels we have stayed in so far in 6 months of travelling South America. In the most expensive country in South America, this place represents great value for money. Clean, tidy, the common room has computers, tea, coffee, and nice place to chill and meet others without being a party hostal. I highly recommend.

    Absolutely loved this hostel, it was BEAUTIFUL and the location is right in the old town on a gorgeous street with a lot of restaurants, bars and cafes nearby. The host is extremely friendly and speaks English perfectly. I can’t recommend this place enough, I couldn’t believe how cheap is it for how beautiful it is.
