The hostel is very spacious. Dorms have lockers and comfy beds. 2 small kitchens for guests but also you can buy food with discounts in the hostel restaurant ( very good pizza). Staff is very nice and competent. Convenient location. Recommended

The hostel is conveniently located very close to the trailhead, and the dorm room was clean and quiet. The music in the living/dining area played all day. It would be nicer if the volume could be lowered or the music turned off earlier in the morning. It was also unfortunate that someone stole my water bottle, which I had prepared and filled with electrolyte for my hike the next day.

Two bathrooms for each gender. Under the mountains for great views. My luggage didn’t get on the plane somehow but the receptionists at the hostel called many times so I got it the next day from rio to el Cheltan. Food was very good at the 24 hour restaurant and people who stay get a discount.

I booked one night, planned to stay three more, but I left with pleasure. Very, very noisy. In the building there is a restaurant 24/7 everything is open, a lot of different people, there is no silence in the hostel. A bathroom, toilet and shower are shared for guests of the restaurant on the first floor. The second floor is for those who are in the hostel. But the first floor is also a hostel and you still use it. The restaurant counter is between the tables where people eat in the cafe. The common area is very noisy, you can hear all the noise of the cafe. I was happy to move to a quieter place.
On the plus side, there is a store and supermarket nearby, the hostel is located on the main street, but El Chalten itself is not big, so where you live in it does not matter at all.
And the staff is very unfriendly. The atmosphere is so-so, I was happy to leave. The light did not work in the women's toilet on the first floor. On the plus side, the bed was made, but the beds squeak a lot.

Pros: Close to the Fitzroy entrance. Lockers and rooms are in good condition. WiFi works well in public areas.
Cons: It's too far to walk from the bus terminal with luggage. Kitchen utensils are very poor (pots, cutlery, etc.), WiFi doesn't work well in the room.
Information: Laundry fee is 15,000 pesos per bag.
Would I visit again?? I don't think I will.

The location is near the entrance to the trail to Lake Kabuli, and the hostel's own bar (note that it does not have its own restaurant) is very affordable to eat. The South American beef dumplings are delicious, but the other fillings are not.

트래킹 시작점과 가까이 있어서 트래킹 마치고 힘들때 금방 도착해서 좋음. 식당과 겸해서 운영하고 꽤 방도 많은편이라 관리를 열심히 하기는한데 워낙 사람이 많아 살짝 아쉽기는했다. 전체적으로는 만족
