Cordoba: Tango Hostel – Fructuoso Rivera 70 – Tel: 0351 4256023.
cross street is independencia. cheap, breakfast included, garage for 1 or 2 bikes.

Stayed at the Tango Hostel on 2014-06-20. They were reticent about accepting bikes but in the end they accept two DR650s under agreement that we moved them in the morning. It sounded like the PM staff has to beg the person on the phone. The garage mentioned in the OP is now mainly used for backpack storage and asado - a common room.

I spoke with the staff as I was told, and I paraphrase: "We welcome motorcyclist but having motorcycles is a hassle to us. They are in the way of our backpack storage and asado grill. We would rather not have them as their is cheap paid parking down the street."

In the end, the Tango Hostel's space was cramped, with people tripping over each other in the kitchen, etc. It was really a "gap year" party hostel with fairly loud music and a constant chatter until 1:30AM curfew. YMMV.

Would recommend Puerto Limon Hostel, happy for you to drive through reception and living-room to park in the central internal patio! It doubles as a smoking-area, although there is space for about 6 bikes, I dont know what their threshold is! Well maintained hostel and good kitchen. Decent dorms.

San Telmo


I stayed in Kilca Hostel also, but wouldnt recommend it. It has a large internal patio that is adjacent to the building, which could take quite a few bikes. It is poorly maintained and quite run-down. The prices on their website are cheaper than walk-in prices, but you can ask for the internet price.

Javito Hospedaje,
Sarmiento 634

The Owner Jorge loves motorcyclists and is very fun and outgoing guy. 200-250ARS per person.

Has long side garage with ramp that can hold maybe 8 bikes.

Place is basic. It has a kitchen and dining area. Wifi is limited, only available in front of building.
