Hostel One
"Spacious and Cozy at the Same Time"
Upon entering, you'll notice that the common room is quite cozy. Seeing the comfy couches and a fireplace, you might yearn for some hot coco and marshmallows. The high ceilings make the room feel grand but cozy at the same time. Next to the common area is the computer station, which is great because it offers not only computers with Internet, but webcams and headsets as well. Perfect for anyone who wants to get their Skype on. But if you prefer your own computer, don't worry, there's Wi-Fi as well.
The rooms are available for 3, 4 and 6 people. They are very spacious compared to other hostels and have decent sized lockers. Once you open the high-rise French doors to your room, you'll be excited to see a TV and your own balcony overlooking San Telmo. Each room also has its own private bathroom and shower and the cleaning service comes by daily to straighten up your room as well.
The kitchen area feels just like home. There is breakfast daily and you can also use the facilities to cook your own meals (there's actually 2 refrigerators which is nice). Right next to the kitchen is a small patio where you can grill, chill out, enjoy the sun or have a smoke. Another plus is that Hostel One has its own laundry machine, available for 8 pesos (about 2USD). Not to mention, Tango classes are available through the hostel for 20-30 pesos (5-8 USD) and they organize soccer games down the street at an indoor field every Friday. Don't be afraid to ask the reception for any help on tour information, maps, events, and clubbing as they're open 24/7. And don't miss the fiesta on Saturdays that is at the hostel. Sounds like good fun for everyone.
