Great vibes and helpful staff, they waited for me to check in late at night which I'm very thankful for! Location is nice and there's a supermarket in front to buy groceries if you want to cook, definitely would come back again if I have the chance

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The staff were amazing, super friendly and generous with recommendations and time for a casual chat. The hostel was quiet as I was there outside of the main season but it felt really cosy because of that; I was also upgraded to a better room which was very kind. The location was fantastic, right next to a supermarket, beach, restaurants, cafes and shops. It also felt really safe. La Barra is a really cute area, I'd love to come back again and stay at Negrita. Thanks so much!

    If u travel with a budget its definitely a good option but dont expect too much. The hostel is good located and extremely cheap for Uruguay. The mattress are hard and old, the kitchen well equipped. The shower has hot water. Staff is super helpful and friendly.

    I’m traveling for 6 months and this was by far the best hostel I stayed in. The staff became like friends and the atmosphere is amazing. If you image a surfculture, this has the surfculture. The ultimate place to come to rest, close to a perfect beach and the nice streets of la barra. I would recommend this hostel all day to people. This hostel is for me a reason to come back to Uruguay next year. A big big fan here. Thanks for the wonderful stay here Cami, Vicky, Lu and Ines
