Patagonia Hostel

We were not impressed with our stay here. We stayed for two nights and our private room was never serviced. When we arrived there was a yellow stain on the top sheet of our bed. We asked them to replace the sheet and they did, only to replace it with another sheet that also had mysterious stains. The bed did not have a fitted sheet but rather a larger top sheet that rested on the mattress which moved around as you slept, leaving you to sleep on the bare mattress. The bathroom had an awful smell that would not go away and was not properly ventilated as our towels never dried and everything was always moist. The wifi is not strong anywhere but especially not in the rooms. The floors and showers did not appear to be cleaned and we found many hairs and loose dirt on all surfaces. I would not rely on the breakfast that is included because it is not only very limited but also tends to have flies hanging out on all the food.The walls are paper thin and you can easily hear other guests chatting as well as opening and closing their doors because they use very chunky keys which you’re not supposed to take with you and are expected to leave at the front desk every time you go out.A note on money exchange- If you expect to easily exchange money at the front desk, don’t, unless your bills are in pristine condition. Any marking on the bills will be turned away and considered invalid(bank regulat?). All in all, this place offered us a roof over our head but not much else. Would not return.

The staff is wonderful and our double room with a private bath was spacious and clean. We enjoyed our stay.

The hostel is in a great location - in the middle of the town and about a 15 minute walk from the bus station! Our room was fairly basic but clean! The cooking facilities were useful to prepare lunch and dinners!

Pleasant hostel / hotel. Had a private room. Close to Fitz Roy trail

Best hostel in El Chalten by far. Super friendly staff. Great common areas. Just a very bad wifi.
