Location: Highly praised for being close to the bus terminal and within a short walking distance to the town center.(based on 1 review)

The hotel is close to the bus terminal, making it an ideal location for solo travelers. It's a little far from the center of El Calafate. The free breakfast was a great way to save money.

A very bad experience. Apart from being close to the bus station, there are almost no advantages. There is a long stretch of gravel road outside the door, and there is a lot of dirt. It is difficult to check luggage. The receptionist is not enthusiastic and the hygiene is not good. There are many young people. I will stay here. It will be very noisy at night. The room facilities are poor. The toilet cannot flush. Even after repairing it, it didn't fix it. I asked them to change the room, but they said they didn't have it. It made me need to take off the toilet seat when flushing, and put my hand into the water tank to pull up the chain to flush. It was disgusting. The breakfast is very simple. There is nothing except bread, jam and something to drink. You have to wash the dishes after eating. The bed is very narrow, soft and uncomfortable. I am not satisfied. I do not recommend it.

I had an excellent check in reception which i would have rated 5/5 easily. She was the weekend staff and she was very helpful, informative, and pleasant, but the weekdays, morning front desk staff was completely different than all other staffs. He was selective how he relates to the guests. It seems he likes to get acquainted with the females guests more. Both time, i asked for information, it seems he cannot be bother and very short and direct with the information. I asked where i can stroll around town amd he suggested the beach. He causally point I go down the road, and I should get to the beach. Instead, he could've given me direction to the main road where it will lead to the beach, rather i have to asked the locals on the street after I got lost and went into some deadend road. When i checked in, the lady drew on the map the places to eat. Therefore, the rating is dropped 4/5 for poor guest service. I checked out unsatisfied and he knew it...sadly.

El personal es muy mal educado, hace comentarios hirientes y fuera de lugar acerca de los huespedes. Hay una agencia de viajes dentro del hostel que se denomina World Riders con personal que hace comentarios acerca de sus clientes son unas pescadas, son todos viejos de pami, y se rien increíble

Excelente hostel. Fica localizado bem perto do terminal de ônibus e a cerca de 10 minutos do centrinho de El Calafate, percurso que pode ser feito rapidamente em uma caminhada bem agradável. O staff é atencioso e as camas são confortáveis. Destaque para o banheiro, com muitos chuveiros com água bem quente e volumosa. O café da manhã é bom, com pães, frutas, geleias, doce de leite, suco, leite e café. Voltaria sem pensar duas vezes. Recomendo!

Um local bem amplo, com espaços de relaxamento, leitura e muitas opções de contato. O atendimento da equipe é muito bom, falam inglês ou espanhol. A limpeza do local é adequada e tem bastante espaço para banho, as camas são confortáveis e as roupas de cama são bem higienizadas.
