The Garden House: BsAs : Trendy, but...

  • If you are looking for a trendy place, with young people everywhere, large and empty rooms and a typical "spanish" ambiance, the Garden House is made for you. The only matter is that you pay for a bedroom that is not as trendy as the rest of the house (beds, and nothing else). Of course, the dining room is nice, but you don't sleep in it ! We hope that the frendly owners will improve the facilities.

    Si vous cherchez un coin super tendance, avec de grands espaces vides, lein de jeunes et une ambiance espagnole, the Garden House est pour vous. Le seul truc, c'est qu'on paie pour une chambre bien moins "tendance" que le reste de la House (des lits, et c'est tout). Bien sur, la salle a manger est sympa, mais on y dort pas ! On espere que les jeunes proprios sympas pourront faire evoluer leur business sur ce point.

    Unique Qualities: Not far from the best and most typical parts of BsAs (San Telmo, La Boca) and not far from downtown (20 minutes walk). 22,5 pesos (about 7 USD) per person, breakfast included.

    Pas loin des meilleurs et des plus typiques coins de BsAs (San Telmo et La Boca) et pas loin du centre plus commercial (20 minutes de marche). 22,5 pesos (7 USD) par personne, avec le petit-dej inclus.

  • We arrived veeeeery late in Corrientes (3 in the morning, thank you Mendoza (the bus company)). The guy who took us from the bus station to this place said it was the least expensive... and it probably is ! 10 pesos (3 USD) by person ... but be careful ! There are some "cucarachas" (beetles) under the beds !

    On est arrives suuuuper tard a Corrientes (3 heures du mat, merci la compagnie de bus Mendoza !). Le type qui nous a emmene de la station de bus a l'hotel nous a dit que celui-ci etait certainement le moins cher. Et on veut bien le croire ! 10 pesos (3 USD) par personne, on peut difficilement faire mieux... Mais attention aux cucarachas sous les lits !

    Unique Qualities: Cheap.

    Pas cher.

  • It's a bit hard to reach the place from the center of Humahuaca (3000 meters high, don't forget it ), but it's worthwhile ! The Posada El Sol has very nice rooms, shared baths very clean with hot water at any time, and the kitchen is for you. The owners are very nice and will easily chat with you about any subject. A good address.

    C'est un peu dur d'acceder a cet endroit depuis le centre de Humahuaca (on est tout de meme a 3000 metres d'altitude), mais ca vaut le coup. La Posada El Sol dispose de jolies chambres, de salles de bains partagees propres avec eau chaude a tout moment, et la cuisine vous appartient. Les proprios sont tres disserts sur tout sujet. Une bonne adresse.

    Unique Qualities: Cheap : 12.5 (4 USD) pesos per person.
    Close to the Penas Blancas and to the wonderfuls views over the village and the Quebrada.
    You can call them before arriving (or when arriving) and they will pick you up at the bus station (you better phone than e-mail).

    Pas cher : 12.5 (4 USD) pesos par personne.
    Proche des Penas Blancas et des magnifiques perspectives sur le village et la Quebrada.
    Vous pouvez passer un coup de fil avant ou au moment de votre arrivee et ils viendront vous chercher a la station de bus (preferez le telephone a l'e-mail).
