400 AP por Person one night with shower, kitchen and WiFi

WiFi is very bad, just in the front of the reception with a “good” function!

We stayed here with our 4x4 car with a rooftop tent, which we were allowed to park on a parking place in front of the hostel next to the mainstreet. Price: 400 ARS/pp/night, what was pretty expensive for what we got, but we don't think there are any better alternatives around. How water shower but only for 5 minutes, decent Wi-Fi, relatively nice common room and kitchen, on Friday night loud music till 5 AM because of a disco nearby, a bit of wind protection for our rooftop tent, better protection on the regular campsite.

You can park in front of the hostel. Nice, warm common area - seatings and well equipped kitchen. The bathrooms are in a good condition but no toilet paper and soap. No showers when electricity is down. Some people seem to stay longterm in the hostel which always feels a bit strange for you as regular guest but the staff was really nice. We had to pay 400 ARS per person per night. You can pay in US$ and also exchange to ARS.

we used this place for showers. They charge 100AR$ per person but the shower is hot with great pressure so after Chile and crossing boarders pr after a hike is amazing relax. Very friendly staff and they don’t speak to much English but at least they try.

We asked at the hostel - (al Lago ?), where the reception is, for shower - It is 100 $ pp

First I stayed at a dorm but it was not very comfortable. so I preferred staying in my tent. it's 250$ and not so cheap but very central. shower is hot and good, toilets OK but mostly without toilet paper. kitchen without salt, oil, sugar or anything. hang out areas is OK.

Didn't sleep here cause we are in a camper. But we had a great, warm shower here for 40pp. Showers are clean, warm and with good pressure.

el terreno de camping es irregular e incómodo, pocos lugares llanos para carpas de 3 o más personas. los baños están bien, agua caliente 24hrs, WiFi solo funciona en las habitaciones del hostel y en la recepción del hostel. hay un segundo edificio pobremente adecuado para los que acampan, cocina sucia y poco fuego(3 parrillas para cocinar y un lavado) el refrigerador está lleno de cosas de viajeros que no volvieron más. es mejor pagar más e ir a otro sitio

Llegamos con la intención de ir a este albergue, porque hacia mucho viento, pero la realidad fue muy diferente. El precio es de 180 pp, no hay espacio para los vehículos, no hay electricidad y la wifi es muy lenta.
Nos dan la oportunidad de aparcar al lado del albergue, en la misma calle, evidentemente con el consiguiente pago.
Puede ser recomendable para gente que vaya con carpa (tienda de campaña) pero no con motorhome.

180 pp to car camp in our rooftop tent in the front parking lot. No wind protection. Nice hangout areas. Slow wifi, hot showers and friendly staff. Not a great place but it was ok for us for a day after a long trek. Not very good campgrounds in town for overlanders, sadly.

Nice place with nice people. But a little bit windy. 180 ppp. showers and toilets are ok but not the best. WiFi(slow) works not all the time because probably too many people use it. Central location, you can reach everything you need in a few minutes.

Stayed with our camper van in the parking before the grass with the tents. A bit of wind protection, wifi was a little difficult to get into but had good speed.
180 pesos pp, no charge for vehicle.
Very hot shower, decent bathroom, kitchen with six gas stoves, sinks and several power sockets.

There were a couple of very well protected tent spaces on the grass.

Quoted 180 pesos to camp in tent and 430 for dorm bed.

We asked to just use their shower- the two guys at reception were happy for us to use it, we paid 40pesos each. The shower was separate to the hostel around the back, but the shower itself was amazing. Really hot water and decent pressure.

The place for campers and motorhomes is the parking lot, tents have a nicer grassy area with some wind barriers. It was windy but quiet. Both the hostel and the campground were quite busy. Wifi was slow but worked. Showers and toilets clean. Nice staff. 150 pesos pp.

Very convenient location, although a bit crowded. When it's full, you're only a few feet from the next tent. The internet is good, but only in the reception. there's a separate kitchen/common room and bathroom/showers for camping which are nice, but the Wi-Fi is too weak here. Showers are really hot and strong. Overall, we liked it.

We stayed here one night in our campervan. Wanted a place with wifi and a hot shower. Cost $150 ARS pp. Was busy but still plenty of room to park. Parked next to another van. Showers were hot and clean. Bathrooms very clean too. Receptionist was very nice and met some nice people here as well. There was a common room/kitchen which was included for campers and it had 3 stoves and a sink. Was electricity in here as well to charge up. Was a little noisy at night, but no wind. Wifi was ok. Overall, good place for us to clean up and communicate for a night.

Very busy and crowded place. Unfriendly receptionist, wifi didn't work. Wouldn't recommend this place at least during high season. 120ARG pesos per person.

November 12th, 2016 by alex.holt

$100pp camping, $160-180pp for a 6-bed dorm. Camping includes the use of all facilities. They let us park for free during a 2-night trek.

Closed for the season as of today (4/13/15).

Convenient campsite in the centre of town. Lots of tents and space for a few vehicles. 100 pesos for the night.

December 20th, 2014 by cragkungfu.com

I asked if I could buy a shower only and they let me take one for free. Lots of nice people. Great place to sell any gear you want to get rid of. Full services are only 50 pesos per person if you want to park or camp there.

In the city center. Access to kitchen, hot shower, wifi, water.
