After hearing good things about this hostel from friends that had stayed here previously and from reading the mostly positive reviews I was expecting good things from Damajuana but it didn't live up to expectations. The dorm was like a cell in the basement with windows that looked on to the street which meant it was very noisey...the locals also... More

One if the best hostels we have stayed in to date. After checking into a not so nice hostel, we scoured the streets of Mendoza before coming across this gem. Great location in the area of Mendoza where all the bars and restaurants are located. Fab swimming pool and gardens as well as chill out lounge. Staff very helpful too.... More

The amazing swimming pool is the standout feature here, and the gorgeous gardens have lots of grass to lay about and soak up the sun (and let's be honest, when you're so close to the vineyards and amongst the bars, it's nice to have a hostel you can hang out at while you recover from the inevitable hangovers). Lots of... More

Many thanks for taking the time to write a review and for your positive comments. Sorry our staff didn't provide the information you were looking for. However, I'm quite sure it was just a misunderstanding since -as you could see from other reviews- they are always trying to going out of their ways to assist our guests. Glad to hear... More

Brilliantly brilliant with a touch of brilliance! If you want to have fun, eat good food and enjoy life, you got to stay here. I nay managed one night as I was on business, so happy I stayed here rather than some sterile hotel. You'll love it!

Despite the 'good looking' of this hostel, it lacks of basic security measures. There are unventilated rooms in the basement. Some of them have small fans that only lead to adjoining rooms that are closed too. The basement´s emergency exit is locked permanently! If it were open it would only give access to an adjoining closed room! Fake emergency door!... More

I stayed at Damajuana in February and again in April. It's a great hostel, social atmosphere, the staff is friendly, a restaurant on site, and a pool! The location is great, and you can book all your activities through them.
