- Osamu (8/5): 前乗りで寝るだけなら全然オッケー。 - 値段が安い。フィッツロイの登山口に近いです。夜中に登山開始しても降りて来るまで荷物置いておいてくれます。誰か見ててくれるわけじゃないので自分で鍵を。 値段通り。
- Fiona (9/5): - It was a fantastic hostel and really well run. The only thing I was in the downstairs room and it was really noisy at night from ventilators or generators. It was very well designed and informal.
- Gwendoline (3/5): - Emplacement et espaces communs au top Présence de punaises de lit et d'insectes divers. Pas de chance ou manque d'entretien ?
- Rina (7/5): - The hostel has a good vibe, a warm and spacious communal area and clean, heated bathrooms. The rooms have bug lockers for all your luggage. The staff is helpful. Middle of March 2926: I got a room with bedbugs and got bitten all over, at least 20 bites. The staff was trying it's best and I could switch to the main hostel, Rancho Grande, and have all my clothes washed. Hopefully they have taken care of the problem as it was a horrible experience.

- Marcus (7/5): - Excellent location for hiking. Apart from that, it's what you'd expect from a hostel. Note that this is a part of the nearby Rancho Grande, which has a 24h reception and restaurant that you're welcome to use if you're staying in Rancho Aparte. Luggage storage area is small, and depending on which room you're in, it can get a bit claustrophobic.
- Marie (6/5): - L’emplacement, les équipements et le personnel étaient supers. Malheureusement j’ai eu des punaises de lit (et je n’ai pas été la seule chambre). Je peux dire en revanche que le personnel a été fantastique pour gérer la situation.

- Marie-Sophie (9/5): - Schöner Aufenthaltsbereich oben Keine abschließbaren Zimmer
- Afonso (10/5): òtimo ambiente! - Localização ótima! Staff muito simpático! Ambiente muito acolhedor. Chá e café sempre disponivel é um bonus positivo.
- Francia (10/5): -
- Adrian (10/5): Great and best staff thanks - Amazing place - so helpful and professional. Very relaxed and in the heart of the action.
- Le Barbanchon (1/5): Bedbugs - There were bedbugs in several rooms. It should be treated with more attention.
- Tanguy (1/5): - Ils y avait des puces de lit
- Dutra (8/5): -
- Gabrielle (7/5): - good location, big common area we had bed bugs in our bed, when brought to the attention of the owners they provided us with a private room at the partner hostel next door. Disappointed i was not told by the hostel staff there were bed bugs in the room as I had to find out by the guest I was sharing a room with who had complained that morning.
- Mariana (10/5): - Kitchen and bathrooms
- Cosima (9/5): Herrlich und abwechslungsreich - Die Nähe zu den Wanderwegen und der Essbereich mit vielen netten Besucherinnen Es gab meines Wissens keine Föne
- MANAMI (8/5): とてもいい! - 登山口に近い。チェックイン・チェックアウト後も、シャワーや荷物置き場を使わせてもらえたので、朝焼けを見た後に身だしなみを整えることができて、助かった。 特にないですが、ドミトリーが男女別の方が安心できたと思います。
- María Regina (9/5): - El amplio living.
- Yannick (8/5): -
- laura (7/5): Nice location and cozy chill room - The location - close to the trails- and the chill room, very cozy and warm.
They even let us borrow their sticks because the shops were closed! Beds are extremely small and without rails, which becomes worrying for the top bunk beds!
The kitchen was left dirty by the guests. The staff who welcomed us was not the kind of welcoming staff I would expect at a hostel.

- Eric (8/5): - La déco et le lieu de repos. L.espace cuisine est trop petit. Les lits en bois bougent et l'échelle pour monter sur le lit du haut est très inconfortable. De plus le lit du haut n'a pas de barrière de sécurité. Danger pour les personnes qui ont un sommeil agité !
- sonia (1/5): Esperienza deludente e costosa, con seri problemi di pulizia e possibile presenza di cimici da letto. Non lo consiglio. - Niente La camera non era pulita: c’erano capelli nei letti, sporco sul pavimento e una sensazione generale di scarsa igiene.
Il personale è stato scortese e poco professionale: non salutano, non guardano nemmeno in faccia quando entri o esci, nessuna attenzione al cliente.
Il prezzo è assolutamente sproporzionato rispetto alla qualità offerta.
La cosa più grave: ho riportato numerose punture compatibili con cimici da letto dopo aver dormito lì. È inaccettabile pagare una cifra alta per una struttura che presenta questo tipo di problema.
- Eric (8/5): - La déco et l'espace de repos. Lit inconfortable et dangereux
- Figen (7/5): -
- Rafael Joaquin (5/5): - Atencion del personal, ubicacion La limpieza, chinches del colchon, sali picado, lleno de ronchas, en todo el cuerpo
- Matthias (1/5): Bed bugs 🙃 stayed in Feb ‘26 - Bed bugs.
Plus I was somewhat concerned in how routinely the receptionist handled my complaint.
- Marcos (10/5): Recomendable! - Limpieza. Comodidad de instalaciones. Ubicacion.
- Sara (7/5): -
- Ignacio (3/5): - Buena ubicacion y servicios al tener un cafe y restoran dentro del complejo Muy malos los colchones. Viejos y doblados. Muy incómodos.
Mala la construccion del lugar, con ruidos de todo tipo.
Poco personal.
Suciedad en los.baños. pasaban 15hs y el baño seguia sucio como el dia anterior.
- Kristijan (10/5): - Great dining area with terace. Big kitchen The bunk beds were quite wobbly and as a 90 kg man i didnt realy like to be on upper bed.
- Christos (9/5): -
- Jonathan (10/5): -
- Guadalupe (7/5): La ubicacion es increible y el staff tambien, la limpieza super bien. Los colchones un poco viejos, las habitaciones son - La ubicación, la atencion y la limpieza fueron increibles Los colchones estaban desgastados, el wifi no funcionaba en todos los lugares.
- grace78 (1/5): BED BUGS - BED BUGS
- Elodie (10/5): - Logement très chaleureux, grand espace de vie avec une belle vue.
Hôte serviable et accueillante. Flexible sur le dépôt des bagages.
- Yanina (9/5): - Lo práctico y organizado que estaba Que no tengan horno un detalle
- Emer (9/5): Solo traveller - Staff were very welcoming. Walking distance from the bus station and very easy to get to the majority of the trails from here. The dorm was comfortable with a big locker for each person. The communal area was really nice with a good view
- LaiMing (9/5): A warm, friendly and comfortable place that gives good value for money. - The location was superb! Though it's a 20 mins walk from the bus station, it's only about 300m away from the starting points of several trails, including the Fitz Roy. With many good restaurants and a supermarket nearby, you couldn't ask for more. And you get a 10% discount if you eat at the restaurant in the sister property next door, and the food is good. The layout of the kitchen and the configuration of the cooking stations could have been better. It feels cramped if 2 or 3 people cook at the same time. And they really should get a strainer for the sink as most people just don't think much of washing all the food scraps into the sink, causing clogging problems!
- Ulrich (8/5): -
- Iarla (6/5): - Communal area is great and perfect location in Chalten Kitchen is filthy and cleanliness in general is not great
- Harriet (8/5): Great stay - wish it could have been for longer - The hostess was so lovely and accommodating - you are lucky to have her! Lovely to have a private room and so close to the bathrooms Kitchen was very dirty - so many flies. The building needs better signposting.
- PANAGIOTIS (7/5): Easy access | ability for very late check in | great location near the head of the trail - Staff was very polite and helpful.
Facilities seemed clean and with the capacity to accommodate a lot of people.
I had limited interaction with the facilites since I only went for sleep and left very early the following morning. For the very limited time spent in the premises I have nothing to notice

- 13021980 (7/5): Solucionar el ruido del motor por la noche en la Habitación 6 - La predisposición de los empleados En la habitacion N°6 por la noche es molesto dormir con el ruido de un motor que enciende y apaga constantemente.
Para descansar bien no sirve.

- SEUL JI (9/5): - 짐을 안전하게 보관했습니다.
방은 아늑했고 2명이서 2인실을 사용할 수 있어서 편했습니다.
리빙룸이 넓고 이쁩니다.
키친도 넓습니다. 첫날 방에는 2층침대로 올라가는 사다리가 없었습니다.
샴푸,비누가 없습니다.
- Mika (10/5): מצויין - ההוסטל היה מאוד נקי ומוקפד. מקום לינה איכותי ובמיקום מרכזי בעיר, הצוות היה מסביר פנים ועזר לנו בכל שאלה. ממליצה מאוד כלום

- EDUARDO (10/5): Conforme - Bien ubicado, buena atención, las instalaciones cómodas tiene un buen espacio de descanso -

- bernal rodriguez (7/5): Bien - Si hermoso el lugar y la ubicación Ls camas , los colchones muy blandos se y de uni cuando duerme , la habitación 5 mucho ruido exterior
- Mona (7/5): -
- Júlia (9/5): Vale o custo benefício e boa localização - Ótima localização, já na saída das trilhas para o Sendero Laguna de Los Três. Em frente há um restaurante e café aberto 24h. A cozinha do hostel é ótima e a estrutura muito boa. Tem uma sala no andar de cima aconchegante. As camas tem colchões muito macios que afundam e ficam muito desconfortáveis.
- Yuliia (7/5): - It was a good hostel, with practical but helpful stuff. Could pay in US dollars. Luggage storage was available. Lockers in the room. Towels for extra charge. Hair-drier at the reception. Wifi was good. Cake and tea every morning. The hostel is located rather close to the start of the Fitz Roy trail. A bit too hot in the room
- Léa (8/5): - Très propre, personnel gentil et à l'écoute, la salle commune est chouette avec café et thé à dispo La porte de la chambre qui grince toute la nuit, un peu loin du "centre" (mais proche des départs de rando)
- torres (9/5): -
- Camille (9/5): -
- Gabriela (7/5): - Magy la chica de recepción siempre dispuesta a ayudar hasta me prestó su campera porque yo llegué empapada del trekking y los chicos turno vespertino del restaurante María, Lázaro, Ely y Beto excelente chicos El cuarto es mega incómodo
- Marie (6/5): Bien mais bruit permanent pouvant altérer le sommeil de certains - Super emplacement et personnel très accueillant Bruit de chaudière permanent
- Fernando (9/5): -
- Steuer (9/5): - Great Lounge room and possibility to relax. Good kitchen and utensils and very clean.
Even though there is no breakfast included, each morning there is cake and you can take some tea.
Big bathrooms which are also very clean. Matress was a little old therefore not a 100% comfortable
- Sararose (10/5): -
- Laura (10/5): Super ! - C’est ultra propre ! Le personnel passe très régulièrement pour nettoyer les toilettes, vider les poubelles, changer les éponges, ils proposent aussi de changer les draps si on le souhaite
Et il y’avait un très bon gâteau tous les matins pour le petit déjeuner, et je pense qu’il est fait maison à chaque fois
On a adoré notre séjour nous en tout cas C’est pas forcément qu’on n’a pas apprécié mais la wifi ne fonctionnait pas toujours très bien. Après ça dépend de l’utilisation de chacun. Ça marche pour tout ce qui est basique comme les mails, Maps, les appli de rando etc, mais plus compliqué pour YouTube ou le streaming
Mais on peut s’en passer si on a pas besoin de travailler sur ordinateur avec une bonne connexion
- Caroline (10/5): - Superbe auberge très bien située pour les randonnées, tout équipée vraiment confortable, sans oublier les précieux conseils du gérant pour partir randonner

Habitaciones muy pequeñas. La recepcionista poco amable, no informó qué instalaciones y/o espacios en común tenía el hostel.
- Emma (9/5): - very nice and social hostel. amazing common rooms. wifi was not too great and the top bunk bed a bit scary to sleep in
