The owner doesn't deserve your booking
Don't stay there! I had to cancel last minute and the owner literally ghosted me as soon as I tried to get in touch about cancellation fees. Even hotels.com were never able to speak to them. Considering how bad the reviews about this place are on every website, I would avoid booking there if I were you.

The hosts were very welcoming, eager to help and a great source for local information. The breakfast was average. The mountains around El Chalten are stunning. The town and many businesses don't appear to care about appearances. The national park fee is usurious.

It’s okay, my standard is not high (I am a camper)
Front desk was nice experience, Maurizio made this place bearable. As far as amenities, we were given portable electric heater which helped, else the gas heating smelled gas and wasn’t on, we had to call Maurizio to turn it on (later we turned it off due to its smell)

Hotel deixa muito a desejar.
Hotel bem simples e com políticas de funcionamento esquisitas, como por exemplo ter que deixar dinheiro em Espécie retido( 50 dólares) na recepção a fim de “garantir” reparos em roupa de cama e toalhas caso houvesse danos( com detalhe de que a roupa de cama e toalha já apresentavam manchas). Política de não poder consumir alimentos ou bebidos no interior do quarto e não poder entrar ou sair do hotel após meia noite. Tudo estranho. Calefação não funcionou quando chegamos e colocaram um calefator elétrico na primeira noite. No dia seguinte, chegamos do trekking e fomos informados que não teríamos mais nenhum calefator, que só tinham colocado mantas extras. Não passamos frio pq fomos na primavera. Mas num inverno, seria complicado. Café da manhã bom. Dicas de passeios, boas também.
