Everything was perfect - very clean, it was warm when we got there (very nice touch as it was quite cold and windy outside), the communication with the staff was super easy, Renato helped us with everything he could (found us a taxi to the bus station very early in the morning). The beds are pretty comfortable, the rooms are spacious, the facilities are good. It looks exactly like the pictures.

it is a private house, and the room (with kitchen and bathroom) is in the back. It is new, clean and with a nice view of the lake. The location is outside of the city, so a car is needed. Breakfast was ok, not great. all in all a very pleasant experience

An extremely comfortable and cosy house. Perfect to relax in after long hikes. The kitchen is also great and fully equipped for any cooking. Cesar was the nicest host, so accommodating and helpful to us, he really went above and beyond! Can’t recommend staying here more.

The staff were really helpful and friendly and helped us to book a tour to the glacier with them for cheaper than we had found online, and a taxi to the bus station. The hostel was well maintained and very clean. They provided free coffee and some basic cooking items such as oil. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils and crockery - perfect for us as we cooked all of our meals during our stay.

Perfect location for the bus and not far from the centre of the town. Great helpful staff. Able to organise trips and buses to other destinations (they are also a tour company). Always being cleaned and shared kitchen for a hostel was very clean. Food box for guests to leave excess food for other guests to use. They responded immediately to a problem with a leak in the bathroom.

This hostel was very clean, to be honest I wasn't expecting much because it was the cheapest hostel I could find, but it was perfect for me. My only suggestion would be to say that it would be great to have a little shelf so if you are on the upper bunk you have somewhere to put your phone / wallet. The wifi was super fast and the kitchen was spotless. I'll definitely return.
