Perfect location for tourist and ride bus/ subway.

Lots of activities supplied by or arranged by the hotel. We went to the Tengo Porteno show for which they buy our tickets. Excellent show and meal. Hotel staff wonderful and speak English. Luggage storage if needed, but our room was ready early! Lots of mirrors in room-- nice

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.
