Frommer's Review
Privately owned, but part of an Argentine network of hostels, V&S provides exceptionally friendly service in a convenient Microcentro location. The hostel is in a gorgeous turn-of-the-20th-century apartment building, with lavish touches such as molded plaster, curved doorway entries, stained-glass ornamentation, and balconies. Five private bedrooms with attached shower-stall bathrooms are also available. A kitchen for preparing meals is on the premises. Guests can mingle in the quiet library, TV sitting room, or patio. Several computers are also available for Internet access. This place is a great value, with air-conditioning throughout the rooms, though an electricity fee ($1-$3/£.70-£2.15) is charged per person, depending on the room. Except for same-day reservations, the hostel prefers reservations requests by e-mail at reservas@hostelclub.com.

Frommer's Buenos Aires, 3rd Edition

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
