Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast is basic — A guest describes the breakfast as 'basic but satisfactory.' If you're expecting a full spread, you'll be fine with what's offered, but it won't be elaborate.
  • No pets allowed — The property explicitly states that pets are not permitted, so you'll need to make other arrangements for your furry companion.
  • No on-site parking listed — Parking is not listed among the amenities. If you're driving, you'll need to check nearby options, which could add to the cost.
  • Check-in ends at 23:59 — The reception is 24-hour, but the official check-in window finishes at midnight. Late arrivals after that point may need to coordinate with the staff.

“I had a great stay at Hagoth. The location was ideal — a short walk to the San Telmo market and public transport. The hostel was spotless, with good showers and a tidy kitchen. The staff were friendly and attentive. The highlight was the 3rd floor terrace, where we had a BBQ and enjoyed the views. Wi-Fi worked well in my room, and there was hot water around the clock. I'd recommend it for both location and facilities.”

9.6Verified guest

“The location is excellent, close to charming areas with plenty of food, coffee, and nightlife. Staff are great — friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean, with comfortable beds and large lockable wardrobes. Common areas are well-maintained, and the kitchen is nicely stocked. Breakfast is basic but fine, and coffee is available all day. The building itself has a classy, upscale hostel vibe.”
