Liked: Close to the bus terminal. Safe and secure entry.

Disliked: Nothing really stands out about this place. Not the best, not the worst. There were only 2 baths to use, but I didn't have a problem. Floors are creeky so if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs.

Liked: Its a small and welcoming hostel. It's close to the bus station and only about a 5 minute walk from the main street. The owners are friendly and helpful. Breakfast was ok - though served earlier than most hostels.

Disliked: The rooms were ok sized but the walls were paper thin - you would wake up to people walking around downstairs or in the hallway. The beds where a bit uncomfortable too. There is no real lounge room (just a kitchen area where people congregate). Also no real 'garden' to chill in. This could be a great hostel if they improved a few minor things like bed quality, better walls (or insulation) and a lounge room to relax after a days hiking/sightseeing.

Liked: The staff were really friendly and helpful and the room was a good size. Breakfast was the usual for a hostel like this but also as usual great that it's included! Only a short walk from the main street in El Calafate and very close to the bus station which is handy for walking to with heavy bags.

Disliked: Nothing really.
