Quiet and comfortable place to stat at. Facility is clean and well maintained. Bed is comfortable and the room is warm. Host Manu is gentle and warm-hearted. Detailed advice on the Fits Roy trekking was given by Federico. I enjoyed my stay at this place as well as the conversation with the host a lot.

Exceptional owner. Very kind, attentive and lots of useful tips. I've never stayed in a dorm that was so good value. It was even better than my previous stays in a private room. Thumbs up to Roberto and his wife Julia for a great stay. Don't even look further, just book here 😎

Rancho Grande is at a great location in El Chaltén - close to the start of all the famous trekking trails. The restaurant area is open 24/7 - food is great (huge and delicious Milanesas! By staying in the hostel, I got 10% discount for all dinners. The atmosphere is very cozy, perfect for an after-hike relaxation. The kitchen area is big, common areas are well-designed.

Lovely people working at místico hostel, so kind and helpful and took care of our needs. Good location on the main thoroughfare and dorms with just 8 beds. Decent sized kitchen and dining area. Felt safe and secure. Perfect base for hiking.

The staff were incredibly helpful and one of the cleanest hostels I’ve stayed in. Rooms had lockers and there were plenty of showers and toilets so I never had to wait. Best location for hikes as well as you’re a 2 minute walk from the base. Charged in the official currency as well which makes it even cheaper than advertised in GBP.

Cosy hostel, good staff, great location for the v popular Laguna de Los Tres hike. One of the dorm rooms has two beds and they let us switch, so effectively a private twin (bunkbed) room for the same price.
