Guest Reviews
- Tianna (10/5): - Decent property!
- Arturo (10/5): - Todo bien, estancia sencilla y accesible.
- Barbara (10/5): - near to cbd
- Adriely (10/5): - Adorei minha estadia! Ótimo atendimento, o quarto era limpo várias vezes ao dia. Muito próximo a pontos turísticos e dava para ir a pé.
- Siu Shan (6/5): Below average - The room was not warm enough to sleep even adding extra blanket I still woke up at 4.30am due to the coldness. In fact, more than half of the roommates requested extra blankets for sleeping. I changed to another small dorm after 3 freezing nights. Room temperature was better but still not good enough for a good sleep. Finally, I needed to move to another hostel and found some quality sleep.
- Agueda (6/5): - En los alrededores habían construcciones que tenían mucho material tirado. Además, varios indigentes a las afueras de la propiedad. Muy céntrico, bien ubicado.
- Malinee (10/5): - The property provide kitchen, so we have more choices either to eat out or cook. The owner is super friendly and helpful.
- Vinicius (8/5): Estadia Razoável - Foi um bom custo benefício para se hospedar em um lugar bem localizado, chuveiro e cama boa, quarto de casal grande com uma visão boa da sacada. A estrutura do hostel e quarto é antiga, mas deu para se adequar durante as quatro diárias.
- Vinícius (6/5): Terrível experiência no Milhouse Avenue - É um hotel bastante confortável, porém os funcionários não sabem tratar bem os clientes. Me aconteceu de eu me confundir de quarto e uma das funcionárias me tratar com bastante grosseria, insinuando que eu queria levar vantagem em cima do hotel. Respeito e empatia 0.
- Francisco (8/5): - Centrico
- Carlos Alfredo (10/5): Muy amables - Muy lindo y seguro bastante bueno no hay muchos hostels de esa calidad!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great base to explore Buenos Aires - Milhouse is a piece of backpacking industry. Avenue is a big hostel, slightly quieter compared to the sister hostel Hipo, which is more party-oriented. The guests can freely move between the common spaces of both hostels, party in one, sleep in the other one. There are several features that make Milhouse a good base for exploring Buenos Aires. The hostel organizes walking tours in various parts of the city. The guests can book tickets to events (e.g. a tango show, La Bomba de Tiempo, and many other activities). There is a travel desk at Avenue, good if you will explore Argentina further. Another cool feature is a stripe-code sticker that you get when you check in. Easy to pay for breakfast and drinks at both Milhouse hostels, perfect during a party. Some rooms face a patio, some face the street. Mine was towards the street and therefore noisy. One should use ear plugs. The room was shabbish, but ok. The bathroom needs a makeover.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Styr unna! - Rommet stinket og var fullt av mugg. Klaget til resepsjonen og direkte til hotels.com. Vi hadde kjøpt en lokal øl og en halvflakse bobler. Dette ble tatt fra oss i resepsjonen fordi hostellet visstnok har policy om at det ikke er lov med medbrakt alkohol (selv uåpnet!). Når vi skulle forlate hostellet, mistet vi nesten transporten vår til flyplassen fordi de ansatte ønsket å se kvittering for utsjekk. Vi hadde nettopp sjekket ut, ikke mottatt noe og heller ikke kjøpt noe på hostellet da dobbeltrommet vårt var forhåndsbetalt. Oppholdet var et mareritt!
- ROBSON (10/5): O melhor hostel - Sempre com muita atração e uma otima infraestrutura, sempre fico e recomendo. Eh um hostel para todos os gostos.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - No me gustó que no funcionara la calefacción de la habitación, y no me dieran alguna posible solución al problema, y en 2 noches solo pude dormir un total de 6 a 7 hs por el frío que hacia.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Infraestructura buena y la atención al cliente biena
- Anibal (2/5): LAMENTABLEEEE - Mal, había reservado y como se les cayo el sistema no me tenian registrado, no tenían mas lugar y no me ofrecieron ninguna solución.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great social atmosphere. However if there is a party on at the hostel, be at the party or you won’t get any sleep! Awesome tours available at the hostel!
- Kleber (10/5): Muito bom - O hostel é muito bem localizado e de fácil deslocamento para os principais pontos turísticos. Equipe atenciosa e prestativa! Só não vi essas festas que todos comentam, talvez eu tenha ido numa época não muito animada. De um modo geral, o hostel é limpo e organizado, com equipe atenciosa e pronta pra ajudar no que for preciso. Fiquei em um quarto privativo, que é simples mas confortável, nada de luxo, tv, frigobar... se você busca um local simples mas confortável, é super recomendado.
- HamishHam (10/5): - Very spacious building. Cleaners clean your room and bathroom everyday. The staff are very very very helpful and reliable. ANY QUESTIONS or if you need help just ask. In house bar and kitchen with variety of food and drinks at very cheap prices. I would highly recommend this place for a backpacker! It has a party vibe atmosphere. The location is right in the centre of the city and very close to food places all over. Train station is 2 mins walk away. They also offer walking tours to different area around Bueno Aires for a very very cheap price. I did 3 tours during my 9 day stay. I would highly recommend Gabo for the tours!
- Eduardo (10/5): Melhor "party hostel" - O melhor "Party Hostel" que eu já me hospedei.
- GREGORY (10/5): Maravilhoso custo benefício - Muito bom mesmo! Lugar incrivel pelo preço que paguei, além disso, os guias do hotel dão sugestões baratas e com descontos. Tem um mercado colado ao hostel que permite muita facilidade. Muito bom mesmo
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Milhouse was a great place to stay and to meet people, especially for your first time in Buenos Aires. They have activities organised all day every day, from walking tours to free tango lessons, BBQs on teh roof and trips out to concerts in the city. The staff are always smiling and friendly and are quick to offer recommendations or suggestions for your day. Each night, there is something new to do, we even watched Game of Thrones on Sunday when the last season was playing. The kitchen facilities are pretty poor, I once ate porridge from a palstic cup with a fork, but there are so many places around to get good adn cheap food that this really doesn't matter. The place literally next door does some of the best empanadas in the city for less than £1 each! I would only give it 4/5 stars though because after a certain point at night, they allow smoking in the common area. I then has to choose between sitting there in the smoke to spent time with the friends I made there or sitting in my room alone. I did get fed up having to wash my hair every day because it stank of cigarettes and putting my clothes on the balcony at night because they stank too bad to be in the room. I also had to send them away the the laundry before I left because they smell too bad to be put into my bag with my clean things.
- Joshua (10/5): - Great party hostel. I'd go back again
- Lydzie (10/5): - By the end of your stay Milhouse feels like a family! It's such a friendly and vibrant place. Having a balcony and a rooftop was also a nice touch.
- David (8/5): - Wir waren hier am Ende unserer Reise durch Argentinien um Buenos Aires zu besichtigen. Das Hostel hat sich als hervorragend für uns gezeigt. Es hatte alles was wir erwarteten und zusätzlich sogar eine Küche. Besonders hervorheben will ich: Sicherheitsbeamter an der Tür, rund um die Uhr besetzt Rezeption, viele spanisch und Englisch sprachigen Mitarbeiter, saubere Aufenthaltsräume, Restaurant mit gutem Essen. Wer Lust hat kann an Touren des Hotels durch die Stadt oder Abends zu Clubs teilnehmen. Nur mit dem Service waren wir nicht ganz zufrieden. Wir hatten den Eindruck, man will uns Gefahren einreden in La Boca, damit wir eine Tour bei ihnen buchen und nicht auf eigene Faust zur Besichtigung gehen.
- Hermann (10/5): Super Hostel - Sehr gutes Hostel. Fast alles sehr gut. Nur die von Expedia vorgenommene Buchung war falsch im Buchungssystem des Hotels hinterlegt, was für große Verwirrung sorgte.. Vor dem Hostel lauern Diebe. Vorsicht beim Beladen von Fahrzeugen! Zum Beispiel beim Koffereinladen in Bus.
- Rafael (8/5): - Hostel agradavel, pessoas de todo o mundo, mas na recepção um pouco estressado no dia da chegada, perguntamos algumas coisas e fomos respondidos com falta de educação. De resto tudo otimo.
- izabel (8/5): Hostel animado e cama confortável - Logo na recepção fomos bem atendidos. Chegamos às 2h da madruga e no local havia segurança e na rua encontramos kioske e restaurante para alimentação. O quarto privativo para três pessoas é fofo e o hóspede precisa observar que a porta não tem cortina e sim uma sobreporta de ferro que funciona como blackout. Na primeira noite não sabíamos e acordamos com grande claridade. O prédio é lindo e o piso é de madeira, bem melhor do que carpete de outros hoteis da região. O elevador bem funcional. Pela manhã, há café, leite e chás disponível para todos e outros combos com boas opções pagas a custo de 100 a 130 pesos. Embaixo há uma cozinha até boa para preparo de alimentos. Sobre as festas, tivemos uma decepção pois passamos seis noites e só em uma teve festa, sendo que muitos fumaram no local, apesar de fechado. O karaokê foi ridículo naquela noite. A cerveja custa atualmente 110 pesos. Apesar de alguns moradores de rua, o local é tranquilo e o passeio é bem agradável. Os brasileiros que estavam a trabalho foram bem simpático, com destaque para o atendimento do Paulo.
- Raquel Silva (8/5): Poderia ser melhor! - Fiquei 3 dias no quarto 209. Nesse tempo não houve limpeza. O banheiro que era fora não tinha água quente no chuveiro, tive que tomar banho frio e isso pra mim foi devastador. Na cozinha faltaram utensílios para o preparo da comida. Os atendentes foram muito solicitos sempre. As festas são boas, nada de mais. A localização e ótima!
- Jords (10/5): - Really nice place with friendly staff. It's a hostel so you can't help who you are staying with, with we had a very pleasant experience!
- Iyabode (10/5): - Very fun and comfortable hostel......very nice and helpful staff. Would definitely stay again if I ever go back to Argentina......
- Bernt (10/5): - This was the best value-for-money hostel we've stayed in during our 13 weeks in South America. A bit on the noisy side if one wants to sleep early, but a fantastic clean, fresh room with lots of space, great facilities such as the roof terrace and the affordable breakfast with a huge fresh fruit salad. Top score!
- Jose (8/5): - Todo bien. El alojamiento y la atención. Solo que ya no dan el breakfast incluido. Me explicaron que por la devaluación del peso. Confiemos se cambie la economía y recuperen esa importante atención. Gracias
- Luciano (6/5): Muito bom, problema são os hóspedes festeiros - O Hostel eh muito bom e a equipe excelente. Porém, infelizmente, todas as noites haviam hóspedes no térreo ou até mesmo nos corredores em frente as quartos fazendo barulho, gritarias e muita conversa alta. Não consegui dormir em 2 noites.
- Fernando (10/5): Milhouse Avenue - Muito divertido! Super recomendo! Ótimas baladas.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great location but not very personal - Nice hostel with a lot of social events going on. In a great location, close to everything you'll need. Big downside is the kitchen, very poorpy stocked and maintained.
- Nicole (8/5): Hostal bueno - Es un hostal bueno, aunque tuve algunos inconvenientes. Para ser un hostal tiene muchas actividades y está muy bien ubicado.
- Kevin (8/5): - Staff was friendly, helpful, and efficient. Facilities were fine. One of the other guests in my room puked all over the bathroom. All. Over. And of course did nothing to clean up. Amazingly disgusting. But this, of course, is not fault of Hostel. Good place to stay, convenient to many locations.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Deixou muito a desejar! - O local cumpre a função de hostel, porém deixa a desejar em comparação com outros. O quarto é bom. A cama tmb. O Locker tmb. Limpeza do quarto e do banheiro do quarto muito fraca. Em questão de segurança, eu não me senti segura. Somente uma chave por quarto e quando não tem ninguém temos que deixar a chave na recepção. Até aí ok. Porém quando vamos pegar a chave na recepção eles não perguntam nome nem nada. Ou seja, não confirmam se aquela pessoa está mesmo hospedada naquele quarto. Fora que qualquer um pode subir para a área dos quartos, eu não vi nenhum controle quanto a isso nas 6 noites que fiquei hospedada. Uma das coisas que me foi divulgado, é que só sobe pros quartos quem está hospedado. Porém eles não verificaram nenhum dia. E duvido que decoraram a cara de todos os hóspedes. São seis andares de quartos e a rotatividade é enorme. Existe uma cozinha pra uso dos hóspedes, porém a higiene dessa cozinha deixou muito a desejar. Eu reclamei da higiene do banheiro do quarto duas vezes e senti um certo deboche de um dos atendentes quando eu reclamei. Uma hóspede nova do meu quarto não foi informada no seu check in que era uma chave por quarto, achou que a chave era dela, e saiu, me trancando no quarto. E no quarto não tem ramal nem nada pra falar com a recepção. Minha sorte que a moça voltou rápido. Mas e se eu tivesse perdido um passeio pago??? Perdido o avião??? Não me hospedaria novamente.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - At check in it took them almost an hour to check that I have paid through Expedia . At check out they again didn't see the payment . When I talk them to call the women from the reception who already checked this on my check in . They told me they will not call her at night . Instead they held me like a hostage again for half an hour that was like a night mare
- Charlotte (8/5): Great quality-price - Lovely staff and all you can expect from a great hostel! Great quality-price!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Fun place in a great location. Lots of events and a great place to meet other travelers.
- Marina Helena (10/5): Baita experiência! - Uma experiência incrível! Fiz grandes amigos no Milhouse, me diverti muito, conheci gente do mundo todo. Super recomendo. O quarto em que fiquei estava muito bom, cama e chuveiro ótimos. O único problema que tive foi com a cozinha compartilhada, ela deixa muito a desejar, é suja, faltam ítens importantes de louça. Mas no mais, tudo maravilhoso.
- Lihang (10/5): 很好的入住体验 - 服务态度非常好，位置就在地铁边上特别方便～
- Verified traveler (8/5): The best location and great staff - I had a bit of an issue and the staff tried to rectify it while I stayed there. Some rooms are much more comfortable than others.
- Duane (10/5): melhor hostel! - Definitivamente, o Milhouse deixa uma vontade de voltar sempre fazendo com que você se sinta em casa. Os quartos são muito limpinhos, o staff se preocupa com você e estão sempre dispostos a ajudar e tanto o Avenue, quanto o Hipo ficam super bem localizados e fazem festas todos oa dias! Um lugar que você fará amigos e acumulará histórias!
- Nicholas (6/5): Solid - Good energy, great social options, party hostel, just wasn't very clean, my sheets had some interesting stains on them. Mind you the bathroom was very clean! Its a great building but its also a little loud. I have stayed in hostel for about 1000 nights I would say it was really around the okay mark 5/10 - not cheap either but if you want to party its a solid option.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Nice location and overall safe feel, sweet staff - Good location with easy access and nice staff. Only but would be the mattress in my bunk bed. It was old, worn and kinda dirty. And the pillow was spilling it's content. Other than that it was nice with a clean feel.
- Gladys (6/5): Live it up - A very friendly spot. They have parties every few nites and lots if local tours. The place is nice and clean. Lots of up energy around.
- Barbara (10/5): Great Hostel - Very central location. Excellent staff. Great walking tours - both Gina and Esteban were wonderful, knowledgeable guides. Breakfast was reasonable. Dorm rooms and bathrooms were well-cleaned daily.
- homayoon (6/5): THREE NIGHTS STAY IN B.A. - It is a youth hostel so the activities going on in the hall were great for youth. Music always being played. Not a quiet place to relax until very late at night. They offer so many tours in the city, Spanish and dance classes. Very friendly staff. But they did not tell me anything about the 21% VAT added to the bill and was going to charge me. Tourists are exempted from it. Mentioned it to them and "oh yes you are right" ! they deducted it. Breakfast is so-so. Butter, jam, bread, banana, orange, cereals, cake, hot tea, coffee and milk. Had a private room. The bed sheets were never changed. Only the bathroom was taken care of.
