  Very well located in the center if town. The staff is amazing and will take care of everything you might need. All of the staff members speak excellent English and to top it all the two owners and especially Gal do their absolute best to create a nice and homy eviorment. For me this is the only hostel to go to and cordoba and it is highly recommended, especially the delicious asado nights... :-)

  Baluch really does have it all! Clean overall (especially the bathrooms), internet is fast and can be used in common areas or bedrooms, very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. They have the best rooftop deck with bar and parrilla.

  Some of the rooms can be a bit loud, especially those next to the terrace or the street, but in general this is a great hostel run by amazing people who really know what they are doing.

  Not bad at all. It´s in a very central location and the staff are very helpful. The dorms are fine, and there´s a great rooftop. The bathrooms could probably do with an upgrade but all in all, just fine for the money.

  staff are amazing and will do everything they can to assist you! My only complaints would be that there really aren't enough bathrooms and I really hate the instant coffee you get for breakfast (but the pastries are delish!) STAY HERE! It's a really good mix of people from all over

  I had a great experience at Baluch Backpackers Hostel. The staff is excellent, very responsive and very helpful in booking travel or excursion plans or simply in giving some advice. The hostel has strong connections to a couple of great tour guides in the area. The owners are awesome - one is Israeli and perhaps because of this there´s a great flow of people from Israel in and out of the hostel (but also from everywhere else!) The rooms are comfortable, breakfast is good. The bathroom facilities are somewhat limited (in terms of capacity) but very clean and functional. When I stayed, there was a vegetarian cook who made 3 course meals every night for 20 pesos!!!!! This was fantastic. After this service ends, he plans to open a restaurant either connected to or in affiliation with the hostel. (Good luck, Abdul!) It would be hard to give this hostel a higher recommendation -- hey, maybe speed up the computers and clean up the terrace when you can, but no big deal.

  We really enjoyed our stay at this hostel and decided to stay another night. Staff were very helpful and organised Skydiving for us for the next day with no fuss. Great BBQ at a great price - good common areas (especially the roof terrace) and nice chilled atmosphere to meet fellow travellers. Only downside is private room wasnŽt cleaned for the three nights we were there, but all communal areas were nice and clean. When you reserve via minihostels make sure you confirm direct with the hostel as we initially had an issue with a double booking (meaning we had to change our plans slightly).

  We've had a great time in this hostel. The staff is great, the owner is fantastic and they really make an effort to make your stay as comfortable as possible and to get to know you. Also, the kitchen was good and there is a nice rooftopterrace where you can eat your dinner or have drinks. Beds were fine, I couldn't find anything negative about this hostel!

  Baluch was a great hostel. The staff were friendly and gave lots of tips for sight seeing and activities in Córdoba. The room was comfortable, and we had fun with the other guests. Definitely my place to stay everytime I visit Córdoba.

  The best thing about this hostel is the rooftop terrace...it is incredible! It is huge and you get a great view of the city. Make sure you are there for the Thursday night asado, you will enjoy for sure!

  Great little hostel in the centre of cordoba. Staff were really helpful. Place was clean and breakfast was better there than most hostels in argentina. Ideal if you want a nice quiet place to chill.

  Great place with a really good vibe! Marcella was amazing and was incredibly helpful & knowledgable about things to do, places to go etc! Good kitchen! It could do with more bathrooms for the size of the place, but I don't know where they'd put them! Be careful of the small wooden lockers for valuables, people we met had money stolen from them & the same thing had happened the week before!
