- Alessio (10/5): - The host was super helpful and very kind - she offered several services including laundry which we really appreciated. We highly recommend the Blue Glacier! Nothing
- Alessandra (9/5): Super appartamentino molto accogliente - Piccolo appartamentino accogliente e dotato di tutto. Cucina ben attrezzata (in cui forse consiglierei soltanto l'aggiunta di un forno a microonde multifunzione o una piccola airfryer per renderla veramente completa), camera e bagno dotati di tutto quello che serve. Tutto molto pulito! Riscaldamento autonomo super comodo. Poco distante dalla via principale e da un supermercato con prezzi vantaggiosi.
- Antonio (10/5): - Los apartamentos son buenos en relación al precio por lo que lo recomendamos 100%.
- Maëlle (8/5): -

- Chris (9/5): Superb -
- Fiona (7/5): The Glacier was amazing. - Viviana was very welcoming and gave us lots of info on El Calafate, it was great also to get our Laundry done and it took her no time at all. It was a cosy and warm place to stay. Great to know the short cut into town.
- Gary (9/5): Superb - The location is a bit further from the main street in El Calafate, but I didn't mind walking. Host was very accommodating and friendly. Paid in USD cash, host was also willing to exchange USD for pesos as well. Friendly dog :).
- Elimé (10/5): Exceptional -
- Artur (10/5): Great place and great host - The host was great and very helpful, the place is very nice - two bedrooms and two bathrooms in a quiet location 10 mins walk from the city center. Beds were great. The host went out of her way to help us - from borrowing a converter to help with activities. You have to pay extra if you don't pay cash (credit card for example)
- Kelly (6/5): Clean, Nice, Close - Good Value by Good People - Great host, adequate facilities (we just needed a place to stay for the night - the bed was comfy, the shower and toilet were good), but all handled as agreed, and shuttle from airport took us right there. Good value. Not that I didn't like it, but this is a relatively basic place. All good, but the value price = clean, basic, nice folk, walking distance to downtown.
- James (6/5): Decent place to stay in good location. - Good location. Reasonably clean and comfortable. Owner was not very friendly. Shower was terrible....weak water pressure.
- Eleanor (9/5): Superb -
- Sandra (9/5): Superb -
- Daria (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean place. Strong hot water pressure. There is a kitchen with everything you need to cook.
- Anonymous (10/5): Warm greetings. - When we came Vivian greeted us with warm hugs, and she did everything we asked for. Navigated us with good restaurannt and told us practical things. Vinvan did our laundry perfectly. If we come back to El Calafate we would like to stay here even though the accommodation is not five star.
- Jonas (10/5): Beautiful, well-equipped apartment with a welcoming host - The owner was very kind and allowed us to check in early and stay longer.
The apartment is very beautiful and clean. It has everything you need and is thoughtful decorated.
It's a great place to stay if you’re looking for some peace and quiet or a bit of quality time together.
- Chloe (9/5): Lovely and accomodating - Vivi was a lovely host and very accomodating. The apartment was great for five people and good value for money for the area. N/A
- Ana (9/5): Superb - Spacious enough for two people, friendly and helpful owner
- Irina (10/5): Amazing host, accommodation and a great location in el calafate. Perfect place in El Calafate! - Amazing host Vivi! The accommodation is very cozy, super clean and in lovely quiet are of el calafate with a big garden. Cannot recommend this amazing property enough!
- Trevor (5/5): Uncomfortable - Nothing Heating was overpowering and prevented sleep. Dogs barking all night.
- Hannah (9/5): Great Place and Great Value for money - The place was really well equipped, great kitchen. The shower was hot. The room was spacious, the host was really helpful and booked us a taxi. It is walkable to town just up a hill. The dog was also a highlight for us. The bathroom was quite cold so we kept the door shut.
- Mark (10/5): Couldn't recommend it more. - Lovely host, went above and beyond for us. Had a few minor issues but she came in and sorted them immediately.
Nice kitchen with good utensils.
Good shower with hot water.
Well-heated unit that warms up nicely.
Walkable location to the main tourist street with shops and restaurants.
Everywhere in El Calafate is pricey so this offers relatively good value for money.
- Eilish (10/5): Amazing host and really great rooms! - Lovely property, super helpful host and also loved Lucci the dog! Nothing
- Ofer (8/5): Very good - Greate host welcomed us with frendinance. Gave us all the tips and information
- Olivier (8/5): Very good -
- Colleen (8/5): great value, very very clean and comfortable. - meticulously clean, kind owners, 2 rooms and 2 bathrooms! kitchen common area had no heat which made it very cold compared to bedrooms, location in the winter is just far enough that it’s somewhat too far off the main drag to walk in low temps and icy roads.
- Borja (10/5): Exceptional -
- Artyom (10/5): Exceptional - The owner is absolutely wonderful - not just provided the room, but helped me fix a bunch of unrelated problems I was facing. Absolute treasure.
- Stefan (10/5): Nice room on the small hill - Very kind host willing to help with everything you would need and very good communication.
10-15 minutes by foot till center area with supermarket ( there are two small shops exactly near the house with fresh food like meat, fruits or vegetables ), bars, nice and very good restaurants etc.
The room was big enough with a nice kitchen.
Cute dog of the owners :) A big closet for storage, a few hangers would be amazing
- David (3/5): Poor - The truth is that there are few good things to say. The owner was nice, put the heating on (gas), helped us (paying) with the laundry... The facilities are very poor for the asking price. 61€ per night. Bathroom uncomfortable, sometimes smelled bad. A window in the bathroom made of dangerous glass. Windows have no thermal insulation or soundproofing whatsoever. There is a table with two stools that if you want to use it, the table top reaches above your chest. Dangerous gas heating... I find it strange that Booking can have owners with these qualities, could someone from Booking please go and spend a night there? I'll pay for it. The place is far from the centre and does not accept credit cards.
- Ljch3 (8/5): Very good - Convenient apartment for a short stay. Reasonable price.
- Kelly (9/5): Superb - great to have a little apartment. bed was comfy and everything was very clean we had some issues with the hot water but the host was very responsive in fixing it
- Kshitij (9/5): Superb - It was a nice location with the lovely host. There was a small garden area in the property which was an added bonus along with their dog, who was very fun to play with.
- Mohammad (9/5): Superb -
- Eslibeth (10/5): Exceptional - great location.Host super friendly!
- Wendy (10/5): Exceptional - Very helpful owners, comfortable facilities.
- Edna (10/5): Exceptional - Excelente todo!
- John (10/5): Exceptional - Family is really nice and very helpful and perfect if you would rather be amongst the local people rather than on the main tourist strip ( which is great for cafes and shops) but not so interesting or authentic . The apartment is part of the family property.
Hotel is loccated on a local suburban street with a small soccor pitch next door.
The unit is above their house and they have a nice lawn area to sit in. We saved money preparing our own breakfast and lunch . About a km to the main shopping street down a hill so not ideal for those who don't like walking but we enjoyed the walk through the local area (100% safe apart from some barking dogs )
- Lucila (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dakota (10/5): Lovely! - The owner was very kind and attentive. Kitchen was a little short on supplies but there was enough to make it work.
