I have had a nice time there, stayed for couple of nights on the 1st floor and am not complaining about noise. Yes, the price is a bit higher for the service provided, it is situated a bit away from the center, but be sure to admit that the rooms are clean, the kitchen is big and nice, the lounge... More

We stayed in this hostel for a few nights in a double room, after the first night we moved from the first to the second floor because of the noise from above. The room was ok and clean, but nothing special. The same counts for the communal area and the kitchen. There are probably better places to stay in El... More

The room we had was basic, but clean. It is located on the first floor, so we suffered from the noise above, and when asked to change to another room upstairs, the answer was "they are all taken" though I doubt it was true. There is a kitchen, but I had the feeling that owner did not want anyone to... More

As other reviewers commented, if you can find another place to stay, do so. The only reason this place still exists is because of the huge demand for rooms during high season in El Calafate. If you must stay here, it's imperative to get a room on the 2nd floor. Rooms on the first floor suffer from noise from the... More

Good room, atrocious service. There are no towels, no soap, poor service, and breakfast provided is best suited for anorexic squirrels on a diet. There are significantly cheaper, and superbly greater lodgins available in the area. Don't pick this one if you can help it. More

We stayed here for 3 nights in April. We had an adequate room but the front room was a nice place for wine and cheese using the wireless. The service was good - helping us organize our glacier bookings, and generally giving good advice and being useful More

Stayed here on two occasions. Very basic but generally had a good stay. The breakfast is pretty basic but the staff seem nice (although they didn't speak any English). some of the rooms seem a bit hit and miss. One room we had was excellent and quite quiet, the other the bathroom flooded and was very creaky and noisey from... More

This place was one of the only I could find with availability and although there were mixed reviews, I went for it anyway. There’s not much I can say that others haven’t already. If you can find another reasonably priced place to stay, I would. The staff was friendly, but in my double room I could hear everything downstairs and... More

Badly built hotel with loudly creaking floors which kept me awake late at night and woke me up every morning. Showers that didn't drain and flooded the bathroom. A mirror hung so high that I couldn't see the top of my head. Broken bathroom light and no toilet paper when I checked in. It's also outside the town on a... More

My boyfriend and I were recommended this hostel by friends and really enjoyed our stay here. We were in El Calafate to see the Perito Moreno Glacier and also to spend some time in El Chalten, and this hostel was able to book and give us deals on all these excursions. Breakfast is basic, don´t be late! The bathrooms are... More
