Really underrated - and cheap for what it is. People were really nice, it was clean and new, you have your own privacy if you want it and social spaces are very great. +1 for the guitar!

The location was very central but still quiet. The outside space was great especially the table tennis table. Ana was super friendly and gave us lots of advise and booked tours for us. Kitchen was clean and well equipped. We would definitely stay again!

I really recommend staying at Argdivan! Lara and and Lautaro are doing everything right - they arrange fun dinners and hot springs tours were you can socialize and meet the other guests. The place has a fully equipped kitchen where you can cook for yourself. You can fully trust them to help you organize your trip, shuttles and any advice that you might need. The hostel has a relaxed and positive atmosphere that makes you feel at home.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I'd like this hostel totally! It was really clean, the host where supporting us all the time and available. They presented a wall with all activitys you can do and organized Pizzaevenings or nighttrips to the Hotsprings. There was nice space to chill and get in contact with other backpackers. It was really clean and near the center, but on a calm area. Was the best hostel on my trip since 2 month! Thanks!

The swimming pool area, bar and communal area is great- it's very clean and feels very safe and is a lovely place to spend time and meet fellow backpackers. The pod was surprisingly sound proof and had air con. The showers were hot! Which was great!
