Superb hostel! This is the second time I have been here and enjoy it a lot. Chilled out atmosphere in a great location. A perfect alternative if one isn´t feeling up the Milhouse etc. I will be back! Adam Drawbridge (nueva zelanda)

B.A.Stop asked me to write a short comment about their hostel, which is fair enough cos it was such a fantastic place to stay.
What i can say is that all the staff (receptionists and cleaners) are the friendliest and most helpful (receceptionists speak fluent english) i’ve encountered in my 3 months of travelling in s america. Also all the rooms lead onto one common area which makes the place really sociable and intimate.

I stayed in the BA Stop in Buenos Aires
T 4382 7406 www.bastop.com) during my recent visit there and would be happy to recommend it. Its not very big, and its not a party hostel . Its very chilled out and a good place to retreat to. The staff were lovely- really helpful, friendly and approachable and respectful of the guests. They never resented being asked to do anything and never made you feel like you were being a pain in the ass. Even if you were. They were able to discreetly sort out problems with anti-social behaviour in the hostel (while I was there they quietly got a guy to leave because he was intimidating and generally unpleasant and they managed to keep a huge bunch of Brazilians under control as they tried to take over and party loudly in the common areas). There was always soap and toilet roll in the bathrooms and they were always clean- minor things that are actually major factors when you’re travelling! The breakfast breads were always really fresh and they kept them warm to make them even nicer. (There was no fruit or cereals or anything else though- just the usual Argentinean obsession with bread in its many forms.) The place was really well heated (don’t know what its like in summer though!). The TV was massive and the couches really comfy. There was a games table and book exchange too. The kitchen was well stocked. It was really well located in the microcenter and reasonably priced, and honoured its discounts for South American Explorers without grumbling. One of the absolute best things about it though was that it was no smoking- a rule which was occasionally broken but generally adhered to, and which made a huge, huge, huge difference. There’s no laundry service, which is a pity, but apart from that its an all round thumbs up.I stayed in the Limehouse and The Milhouse as well but they probably get plenty of reviews so I wont bother mentioning them!
Hope this helps for your next publication!
Best regards,

Pues el tiempo que pase de vacaciones en la city de Buenos Aires lo pase en el mejor Hostel de la ciudad si si ese el Bastop, el dia que llegue estaba atontado por el viaje y fueron muy amables conmigo dejandome descansar ese dia y pensar en pagar al dia siguiente, en quel momento me atendio Mariela, yo estaba mas perdido a 10mil km de mi hogar sin conocer nada ni a nadie, pero asi de la nada surgio ese gran sentimiento de AMISTAD con Maris! Natys! Marce! y tambien con Alejo todo iba bien porque ellos hicieron que me sintiera en casa tube mucha suerte porque en el Bastop si si ese Hostel maravilloso de rivadavia con libertad (no ese penoso k hay enfrente) si no en el 1194 :-).
Hice amigos con gente que se hospedaba alli Wagner, eramos una gran familia y despues de los dias (k yo me aloje 2 meses) conoci mas a fondo el lugar obvio que la convivencia no es facil pero en el Bastop te lo ponen a huevo ademas yo contaba con la AMISTAD para siempre de Marce, Maris, Natys, Sofy, Paula, eran mi familia y sobre todo me cuidaban tanto, despues tambien en el asunto de la limpieza alli estan unas muy buenas empleadas Carmencita! que la mando un beso enorme!, y lo unico que has de hacer es fregar los platos que ensucias cosa que yo casi siempre me escaqueaba pero lo compensaba por otro lado, de echo el año que viene vuelvo con un amigo y como no volvere a mi casa de Buenos Aires al Bastop, tambien Cony y Baty las Dueñas son muy majas y si aprendi algo es que hablando se resuelve casi todos los problemas aunque parezca que la guita es la guita para segun quien, en definitiva si vas a Buenos Aires no puedes no alojarte en el Bastop por 130 guarros Euros, tienes desayuno con una resposteria muy buena (si si los “guardia civiles” xd) puedes llevarte el portatil ademas cuenta con tres ordenadores internet wifi television por cable, billar, mesa de ping-pong, y lo unico malo que tiene es LA BENDITA RESTRINCION DE FUMAR pero aun asi siempre queda la cocina, para poder fumar o el Wc.
Por eso Baty me ayudaste a encontrar mi gran traje blanco no deberia de haberlo echo ni tan siquiera hablarme porque es la dueña y yo era un “pasajero” k vivi alli dos meses pero alli el buen rollo esta asegurado y la diversion es 100 por 100 sana, salvo cuando Natys derrapaba!!!
Por eso mismo desde aqui RECOMIENDO ESTE HOSTEL KOMO EL MEJOR UNICO E INIGUALABLE por sus instalaciones y sobre todo POR SUS DUEÑOS Y EMPLEADOS!
Un beso muy grande a tod@s y el año que viene nos volvemos a ver.
Muchas gracias por el tiempo que estube alli hacer de un hostel UNA CASA!!
Un beso y un saludo muy grande a todos!!! y os extraño!!

A large airy hostel, with good facilities friendly staff. Very central to most of the sightseeing and restraunts, a very good buffet restraunt eat all you can for a very reasonable price, at the end of the street
