Liked: It's a very adequate property in the centre of El Chalten.
Disliked: Only 4 lockers in the 6 bed dorms, power sockets in the rooms not in pratical places (there are many in other areas of the hostel so not a big issue.Use hostel to book extra nights. They knowlingly charge a higher price when extending at the desk.

Liked: Average place.
Disliked: Zero WiFi signal anywhere in hostel...even when you wake up at 6am when no one else is trying to get on. I don't think they should be allowed to advertise that they have WiFi or charge prices that reflect that amenity. Other hostels and businesses in town had usable signal.4 person en suite is actually not that convenient!! Have to be extra quiet in the morning if you want to do an early trek and not wake roommates.

Liked: Friendly and very helpful staff, good location close to bus station, spacious dining area and great views if mount fitzroy from lounge windows
Disliked: Bathroom in room was not particularly clean. The kitchen is too small for amount of people using it (although there are 2 stoves in there which is good). Breakfast was worst I've had in South America just two pieces of bread and jam with awful coffee. If you want cereal you have to pay extra - not great when most people are doing big hikes each day.

Liked: Friendly staff.
Disliked: Very cramped and dark 6 bed dorm, especially as everyone has trekking gear. Only one power point in the room. Although slow everywhere in El Chalten the WiFi was particularly awful. Only a couple of saucepans in the kitchen. Only bread and jam for breakfast.

Liked: I liked the location. I liked that my room was quiet and had a comfortable bed. I recommend the hostel for the quiet of the room and the location near the bus station and definitely not for the breakfast and the internet speed.
Disliked: The internet speed at the hostel IS THE WORST I have encountered on all of my travels. I checked it twice for speed at it came in at .11 mbps and I could only get this in the lobby. Be aware of this terrible speed for internet.I also disliked the hostel informing me on a printed sign to wash my dishes for the breakfast rolls they put out. I have never be informed of being told to do this. The hostel staff should clean the breakfast dishes on the products that they provide.The breakfast offerings were very poor with three slices of bread, a tab of butter and a tab of jelly. The make it yourself hot chocolate was the best item provided.
