On both occassions the staff were exceptionally helpful the accommodation was what you would expect for the price. Comfortable room and beautiful views. We would highly recommend using this hostel for you starting or ending point for adventures in Patagonia. More

We stayed in this hostel for 4 nights and enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere here. It was great to sit in the lounge area after a day out and update diaries or read. Our room was very comfortable and clean and all rooms had a view over the lake. It is close to the bus station but quite a steep uphill... More

We enjoyed a two night stay at this hostel. The rooms were clean, warm (sometimes too warm) and the views were wonderful. The breakfast was simple but tasty and we had full use of a very well equipped kitchen. However considering most reviews commend the service we were most disappointed to not receive any. Unless the staff have changed in... More

We stayed here with my wife for a few nights. We got a double with private bathroom. The rooms are a bit dated (sort of looks like your average Days Inn/Red Roof Inn, etc., motel room) but they are clean and I think it's actually a pretty decent place for the price (We paid a little over $40 per night)....

I stayed in both dorm and private room. Both attached with bathroom. Large and with good view of the town. Reception staff is friendly and helpful. Can help reserve tours and shuttle. Supermarket about 5 mins walk. Breakfast is so-so. About 10 mins up hill from Ave. San Martin and opposite to the bus terminal. Highly recommended More

We stayed here over christmas in a private en-suite. The price was the best for el Calafate, and the location, although it might look a bit far is only 10min. from the town, and the reward is that this place has the most beautiful views of el calafate from the hill. Breakfast is basic, but the rooms are spacious and... More

We stayed in a double room with en-suite bathroom, both of which were clean and well-sized. We arrived early but the room was ready and the helpful staff had no problem with us checking in immediately. There was a good Wi-Fi signal and the view from the room over the lake was impressive. The hostel also has a laundry service... More

This was a lovely place to stay. The views in the room were fantastic and the people there were very hospitable. Locatoin is ok even though a little bit of a walk into town. There was a real family atmosphere to the place. I would definitely recommend this place. My only bug bear was that the walls in the room... More

This was a great find. Private, well-appointed, en suite room with a view that took my breath away. Helpful staff, free breakfast, great location. The best part: I paid $39 a night. Amazing deal. More
