    The staff were amazing, super friendly and generous with recommendations and time for a casual chat. The hostel was quiet as I was there outside of the main season but it felt really cosy because of that; I was also upgraded to a better room which was very kind. The location was fantastic, right next to a supermarket, beach, restaurants, cafes and shops. It also felt really safe. La Barra is a really cute area, I'd love to come back again and stay at Negrita. Thanks so much!

    If u travel with a budget its definitely a good option but dont expect too much. The hostel is good located and extremely cheap for Uruguay. The mattress are hard and old, the kitchen well equipped. The shower has hot water. Staff is super helpful and friendly.

    I’m traveling for 6 months and this was by far the best hostel I stayed in. The staff became like friends and the atmosphere is amazing. If you image a surfculture, this has the surfculture. The ultimate place to come to rest, close to a perfect beach and the nice streets of la barra. I would recommend this hostel all day to people. This hostel is for me a reason to come back to Uruguay next year. A big big fan here. Thanks for the wonderful stay here Cami, Vicky, Lu and Ines

    Great location! Right across the street from a beautiful beach, easy walking distance to everything in town, and very, very safe! Pools and fitness center were excellent, and massage was fantastic! Excellent breakfast and meal services with abundant variety. Enjoyed variety of news services BBC, CNN, FOX, and Bloomberg. Front desk staff were outstanding in helping with reservations, transportation, and tours. Well done!
