    We had an amazing stay at Windmill! the staff was incredibly friendly and provided us with plenty of information about activities in the area. They even gave us a bus card to explore Maipu. the room was comfortable and had enough power plugs and fans to keep us cool. the location was perfect, just a few blocks from the center and with a supermarket and local restaurants nearby. the owners were also very attentive and helped us find a place for horse riding. the beds were comfortable and the breakfast was delicious, with fresh orange juice. we couldn't recommend Windmill enough!

    Liked everything! 😊.

    The value for money was excellent, with comfy beds, clean dorms, and great facilities like a peaceful rooftop terrace. The location was convenient, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast selection could be improved with a wider variety of options.

    Our two-night stay at Windmill in Mendoza was perfect for our Aconcagua climb. The owners were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to assist us with organizing our trip and resolving any issues. The cozy hostel provided ample space and clean facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and four bathrooms. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast and the various recreational activities available, such as pool and ping pong. The friendly atmosphere made it easy to connect with fellow guests. Also, the presence of adorable cats and dogs added to the charm of the place. We will definitely return when we are in the area. Thanks a lot, guys!

    We strongly recommend this hotel.

    The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with enough power plugs and fans to keep cool during the hot summer weather. the hostel was conveniently located within walking distance of the city center and bus stops, making it easy to explore the area.

    The breakfast provided was quite basic, with overcooked hard-boiled eggs. The kitchen also had limited bench space, making cooking less convenient.

    The staff at this hostel were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure I had a great stay. They spoke English very well, which made communication easy. The atmosphere in the hostel was welcoming and inclusive, making it easy to meet other travelers and have a great time. The location was also ideal, with supermarkets, ATMs, and landmarks nearby, making it convenient to explore the city. The hostel was clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and clean bathrooms.

    There were a few areas that could use some renovation, particularly the terrace. While the hostel had plenty of common areas and a nice terrace, it could benefit from some updates to improve the overall experience.

    The hostel had a great social atmosphere, perfect for solo travelers. the common areas were spacious and there was always someone to chat or play games with. the breakfast was a nice change with eggs and homemade peanut butter. the location was ideal, close to the bus terminal and city center.

    The wifi was quite unreliable, especially when there were many people using it. It would often cut out or become very slow, which was frustrating when trying to plan activities or stay in touch with friends and family.

    The hostel is conveniently located close to everything, just a short walk from the central street. This made it easy for me to explore the city and visit nearby restaurants without being disturbed by the noise. the room was basic but comfortable, with lockers to keep my belongings safe. the staff were friendly and always available to answer my questions. the kitchen facilities were well-equipped and the common area provided a nice space to socialize with other guests. the weekly shared BBQ was a nice touch, allowing me to enjoy a delicious meal with new friends.

    The bathrooms were a bit small, but there were enough of them that I never had to wait.

    the staff at this hostel were absolutely amazing, going above and beyond to make sure I had a fantastic stay. They were friendly, helpful, and full of great recommendations for exploring Mendoza. The location was convenient, with easy access to bars, stores, and restaurants, and the hostel itself was clean and well-equipped. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    One small issue was the wifi.

    Windmill Hostel was the best place I've stayed at in South America! The facilities were amazing, with a rooftop, a kitchen and lounge area with a TV and pool table. The beds were super comfortable and had individual plugs, and there were lots of bathrooms available. The free breakfast was great, and they even had social events like free wine hour to meet other travelers. The team working there was so friendly and helpful, making it feel like staying with friends. I highly recommend this hostel.
