This was a cute little lodge-type hotel. Staff was really friendly and breakfast was very good. I loved the decor in the common area and the cabin feel of the place. Room was a little cramped (especially the shower) but it was great for what we needed for one night.
home away from home. It"s like staying with your family in a well managed accomodation. The view from the dining room and lobby is spectacular so
is the well kept garden outside my window
Positives : Very friendly and available staff. The hostel is close enough to the center (15 minute walk). Breakfasts are simple and sufficient.
Negatives : The shower is very, very tiny.
Family-owned and managed, this hostal is the best base from which to know the glaciar area.
Very helpful staff will guide you around while sharing the local history and culture
We stayed at several hostels during our Patagonia trip and this was our favorite. It is really more like a B&B. Family run, very welcoming. We really enjoyed the breakfast and courtyard!
Great staff and a welcoming experience.
Room is small but very clean. Location is a bit away from town center, about 15 walk, but conducive for a good night sleep.
Had a very pleasant experience!!

What a delightful surprise! I picked this hotel because it is close to the bus station, but it turned out to be one of our favorite hotels of our month-long journey through Patagonia. We will stay there again in a couple days. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. Shampoo and conditioner provided and water pressure was good. Very clean.
Oustanding staff and a beautiful family hotel. Santiago was very welcoming and knows everything that you need to know about your stay in Calafate. Very recommending
