    noise disturbance
    transportation issues

    The location is excellent, just a short walk to the best restaurants. The spacious room was impeccably clean, and the comfortable bed. Breakfast featured scrambled eggs and hot toast, perfect for fueling a day of hiking. The packed lunches were thoughtfully prepared, with lightweight snacks and a refreshing apple. A few inconveniences included limited dining options on-site and some noise from neighboring areas.

    utensil shortage
    kitchen inconvenience

    I greatly appreciated the owner's extensive knowledge about local hiking trails. She provided valuable tips and even lent us walking poles for our adventures. The breakfast was hearty with scrambled eggs, assuring we were fueled for our hikes around El Chalten.

    Minor kitchen utensil shortage.

    Well-designed and spotlessly clean rooms, etc.

    Free parking on-site provided. Central heating and a writing table in the room and the comfy bed. Affable and very very helpful staff throughout. Location really close to the center of El Chalten, and the outlets...

    shared kitchen
    small rooms
    poor maintenance

    nice and spacious rooms upstairs, small shared kitchen, limited breakfast offerings

    Downstairs rooms too small with no view!!! Maintenance could use some attention as water drainage in washbasins is poor!!! A deposit requirement of 50,000 pesos feels unnecessary!!! Internet connection is limited across the hotel!!!

    delicious packed lunches
    thoughtful gluten-free options

    I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious packed lunches they provided for hikes, and the gluten-free breakfast options were a thoughtful touch! the shower drain could use some improvement.

    clean linens
    helpful staff
    standoffish receptionist

    simple place but excellent service

    The cleanliness of the fresh bedsheets and towels made for a comfortable environment. The staff were accommodating, especially in regard to my special dietary needs, offering gluten-free options that exceeded my expectations. I particularly enjoyed the view of Fitz Roy peak from the common balcony.

    The female receptionist could come off as a bit stand off-ish at times.

    lack of variety

    The room was not only cozy and clean but also equipped with convenient USB charging options. The staff, particularly the lady at reception, was helpful with my hiking queries.

    Limited kitchen utensils.

    Fantastic advice for hikers and hearty breakfast

    The owner was knowledgeable about the trails, offering fantastic tips and even lending a hand in finding the best starting points for our hikes. The packed lunches were well thought out, with lightweight snacks that were perfect for our day-long outings. The internet could have been better as it was a bit spotty .

    The hotel is in a wonderful location, close to El Chalten with cafes, the bus station, and hiking trails. The room was brand-new, quiet, with a fantastic view, good water pressure after long hikes, and a big window.

    The common area of the hotel was in a great location, really close to the hiking trails and right in the center of town. It was a perfect spot to relax and plan out my day. the room had clean and fresh bedsheets, and the towels provided were also clean and comfortable.

    The bathroom could have been cleaner, as I found some hairs and the shower drain was clogged.
