  Bring earplugs if you want a good nights sleep.

  My initial opinion was that it was a quaint hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. However the constant noise overshadowed everything else. Guests talking in the garden until late. I could hear the guest snoring in the bedroom next to mine. Walls per paper thin.

  Friendly staff, good if you're on a budget

  There was a nation-wide 24-hour strike in the transport sector which meant our flight was cancelled and we ended up with two nights in El Calafate that were not planned. Our travel agent found us this hotel so it was kind of an emergency situation and not a place we had booked beforehand. It's a 3-star hotel but I'd say it's more like a 2-star. The rooms are very worn (we had two different rooms, 213 the first night and 219 the second night). Room 219 was slightly less worn than 213. The bathrooms are also very worn.The hotel is not quite in the town centre but it's an easy 10-15 minutes' walk so it was no problem having dinner in a restaurant in town. (There is only a breakfast restaurant in the hotel).The staff was very helpful and friendly and sympathised with our situation. In a way I'd like to rate it higher because of that but the hotel standard is just not up to it. It is not a hotel we would normally stay in but with the strike we had to take what we could get. Our stay was quite OK – not least because of the friendly staff and practical location. Just very worn rooms. But if you're on a budget it's certainly an OK place to stay.

  A clean place to stay but nothing exciting.

  Overall, the hotel was okay - it is in a good location & clean spaces. The hospitality of the staff I interacted with was poor; not friendly or helpful. One afternoon I was sitting in the lobby waiting for time to pass and I asked if I could get a coffee. The answer, “not possible.” Only items available were those in the refrigerator - good options if wanted something cold. All you can do is laugh. It’s not the biggest deal, but that kind of response was typical. Also not huge, but I think there are two charging areas in the rooms - one in sleeping area and one in bathroom. Doable just more coordination with a roommate needed. Breakfast is included, but I’d recommend walking into town for a good meal instead of staying at the hotel.

  The price-quality ratio is excellent.

  The location, breakfast and staff attention were the best. Excellent value for money. The breakfast is varied and plentiful, and the hours are flexible. They were kind enough to waive our late check-in fee due to a general strike in Argentina.
