The breakfast had no options and didn’t have even eggs. Even the coffee was not fresh. There was no hot water in our room and had to ask the personnel to come and take a look.

A Nice Respite from Travel

Cute, cozy, comfortable, quiet. A nice place to stay after a couple of days of air travel. Very convenient to "downtown" El Calafate for walking, snooping, and grabbing a bite to eat. The courtyard area was a nice place to hang out. Enjoyed the dining area too. Breakfast was basic and simple but good.

Quiet hotel in a convenient area

The hotel is very conveniently located one street away from the Main Street, and yet it is very quiet, which we enjoyed. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The bathrooms could be a little cleaner though, and the breakfast options more varied. Nonetheless it is a good place to stay. We had a rental car and could easily park it on the street for free, right in front of the hotel.
