The place is amazing. The room was very cozy. There are plenty of toilets and showers. The common areas are always spotless and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped. The breakfast had enough options. Cami was a great helper, but all the staff are super kind.

The location is excellent. It is a new property and stylishly decorated. The rooms are large and very comfortable. The quality of the linen etc was excellent. Mine had a balcony which was comfortably sized and ideal for a pre dinner drink. What really made our stay, however, was the staff. We were welcomed warmly and every effort was made to assist us in every respect including going out of their way to find a money exchange facility on the morning we left. It was truly outstanding service. One of us managed to take the room key with us when we left and staff were able to quickly make arrangements to collect it from us at the bus station.

Santiago was waiting för us upon arrival, and he really took his time to explain the apartment to us, as well as recommending the activities that we as first-timers in El Calafate could do. He even arranged laundry service for us, which was greatly appreciated. Sebastian AI Laundry Club picked the laundry up in the evening of our arrival, and we found the clean laundry back, neatly folded, the next day! The kitchen was equipped with the most amazing indoor barbecue. I've never seen anything like it before, and it worked amazingly well! The location was perfect, in the centre of El Calafate, so we could easily move around on foot. Thank you, Santiago, for having us in your apartment and for your kindness! Thank you also, Sebastian AI Laundry Club for the help with the laundry!!

The staff were really helpful and friendly and helped us to book a tour to the glacier with them for cheaper than we had found online, and a taxi to the bus station. The hostel was well maintained and very clean. They provided free coffee and some basic cooking items such as oil. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils and crockery - perfect for us as we cooked all of our meals during our stay.

Perfect location for the bus and not far from the centre of the town. Great helpful staff. Able to organise trips and buses to other destinations (they are also a tour company). Always being cleaned and shared kitchen for a hostel was very clean. Food box for guests to leave excess food for other guests to use. They responded immediately to a problem with a leak in the bathroom.

This hostel was very clean, to be honest I wasn't expecting much because it was the cheapest hostel I could find, but it was perfect for me. My only suggestion would be to say that it would be great to have a little shelf so if you are on the upper bunk you have somewhere to put your phone / wallet. The wifi was super fast and the kitchen was spotless. I'll definitely return.
