Atendimento excelente, nos forneceram água, banheiros limpos. Não passamos a noite aqui, mas seria possível.

March 15th, 2024 by 2C3M-Family

Wifi, eau avec tuyau déjà en place. Douches en travaux mais toilettes utilisables.

Stayed here twice - both directions on TdF.

Friendly staff. We asked first time, they said to park round the back. We parked near the grass, where the street lights were off. Was nice and quiet.

Clean bathrooms, had toilet paper, free hot showers. Empanadas good, burger less so. Our first YPF stop over and we thought it was great.

Still unsure as to the wizardry required to work the bathroom taps.

Muito bom pra passar a noite. Você abastece e eles cedem as duchas quentes (tem que conversar com o pessoal frentista).

A wi-fi é ampla, pega em vários lugares, apesar de ser limitada na velocidade.

Fora isso, conseguimos abastecer a caixa d'água sem problemas.

Posto com água e Wi-Fi livre, uma boa conveniência. Muitos caminhões dormindo por aqui também

If you park BEHIND the main building, you’ll find the pluggins and it’s closer to the restrooms and the showers.
This Ypf has everything: free hot showers, wifi and ultra diesel at $179 :)
The hot water for the mate is not hot enough because it’s one of those dispenser things with the jug on top, so save those fifty pesos

We stayed in front of the shop, so a bit of noise during the night and early in the morning. But a good place to stay. Very clean bathrooms. Showers available by spontaneous contribution. Ultra diesel at ARS 170.

February 19th, 2023 by jmsarzier

Station-service récente parfaite pour passer une nuit.
Bon wifi, toilettes et douches propres.
Personnel accueillant.
Pas grand choix aux menus pour dîner ou petit-déjeuner, mais il y a le minimum suffisant.

January 21st, 2023 by cabenosdoisbr

We slept 1 very pleasant night, safe place. It has a shower, bathroom and wifi.

Dormimos uma noite bem agradável, lugar seguro. Tem ducha, banheiro e wifi.

January 20th, 2023 by paraquemas__

we overnight here and it was ok. wifi doesn't work well. free hot showers but if you want yo Can left a tip for workers. there is only one for woman and 3 for men

pasamos una noche tranquila. el wifi casi no funciona, por lo menos donde estábamos nosotros. la duchas son gratis pero podes dejar propina para los playeros. hay 1 sola para mujeres y 3 para hombres.

January 10th, 2023 by cjmhaddad

Estação com excelente estrutura. Ducha quente, água e Wi-Fi. Cafeteira com calefação e bom sinal de Wi-Fi. Excelente atendimento.

January 9th, 2023 by It's not a slow car, it's a fast house

I am confused as to why there are two different listings for the same YPF station. We came and looked it over, but as we don’t need any of the services we chose to look beyond. Around back is a dirt road leading to a small lake just a stones throw away. Flat, quiet parking. Perfect space for tents. A dog walker arrived in the morning. Otherwise quiet on a Monday night.
No services here, so take your damn toilet paper with you when you go.

January 5th, 2023 by tortugando_

Great base for ioverlanders, free hot showers,toilets, water for tea, wifi.
very nice staff, this YPF made our time in ushuaia great!

January 3rd, 2023 by MonalisanaEstrada

Lugar muito bom apesar do forte vento. Chuveiros quentes, solicitar ativação no setor de lubrificação. Wi-fi free.

Very good place despite the strong wind. Hot showers, request activation in the lubrication sector. Wifi free.

December 8th, 2022 by romane.flageul

A good place to stay one night.
Not the most beautiful but showers are clean and warm, wifi is good and the staff friendly.
They allow us to pich our tent. It was not windy.

December 5th, 2022 by Escapetotheworldblog

really nice place. parked right in front of the shop, they said it was fine. very good wifi and laso food was nice (some warm wraps and burgers). Shower was also nice. recommend if you're around

November 28th, 2022 by gdmolivera

Estivemos duas vezes em MotorCasa, a primeira indo para Ushuaia dia 18 de novembro e a segunda na volta dia 28. Muito bom, duchas quentes. Os frentistas muito legais. Boa estrutura

Passamos a noite no YPF em Rio Grande. Ventos muito fortes, parecia que a Kombi era um berço de bebê sendo embalado. Um horror! Apesar disso, a ducha das mulheres era quente e o dos homens não aqueceu. A ducha é grátis e água quente pra chimarrão 40 pesos. Banheiros limpos e bom atendimento do posto. O sinal de wi-fi é bom mas em torno da loja de conveniências. Bom lugar pra passar a noite.

May 14th, 2022 by Kombichileiros

we spent two nights here, safe place to stay, clean bathrooms, free shower, good wi-fi, nice shop and friendly staff.

February 20th, 2022 by lacoloinquieta

baños super limpios, ducha caliente y gratis.
amplio lugar para pasar la noche.

February 10th, 2022 by adiantes

Good YPF with a large parking lot not protected by the wind.
Good hot showers for free!
There is a point for eletricity behind the “servicompras”.
Good open Wi-Fi, but you should reconnect every 30 minutes.

February 10th, 2022 by adiantes

Good and large gas station!
Really hot free showers, and clean bathroons.
It’s a little far from the city, but it is In the way of Ushuaia - a perfect option to rest after a long day of aduanas coming from Rio Gallegos.
Reaaaally windy, so be prepared!

February 8th, 2022 by youtube.com

Nice gas station to stay for a night. There is lota of space for trailers and motorhomes, restaurant and tap to fulfill the water tank.

January 19th, 2022 by franciscordente

Free hot showers but have to wait for them to get warm. Large parking lot.
Nice place

February 10th, 2020 by PorOndeFui

Good place, fuel, store with wifi and toilets

January 27th, 2020 by swindler

indeed free shower, 1 for female (working), 3 for male (not working)
WiFi not working
super : 46,19ars/l

January 26th, 2020 by linzibo

Super friendly people, showers still both hot and free, and a much nicer space than the other wild camps nearer town.

January 26th, 2020 by Cinquentões na Estrada (Marcia &Marco)

posto 24 h, conveniência fecha as 23h, mas o fica funcionando 24h, chuveiro quente grátis, wife não funcionou, muito vento , mas foi tranquilo

January 18th, 2020 by euvoceebere

Modern YPF with clean bathrooms and free hot showers. WiFi free but doesn't work. Friendly staff. Good spot. Recommend!

January 16th, 2020 by baroudeursdesens.com

Very nice & quiet place ( in the night). Clean rest & bathroom ( free & hot shower) .Friendly staff. Wifi ok. I recommande. Better than the YPF in Centro.

January 3rd, 2020 by caminhotracado

A lot of Overlanders here.. Good place. But today the showers for men are warm, not hot.. For women are ok. We put our tent near the trucks with no problem, but the floor are made by Ripio. Wifi was unavaiable today.
------------
Muitos viajantes aqui. Bom lugar, mas hoje as duchas masculinas eram apenas mornas, longe de ser quentes. Femininas estavam ok. Colocamos nossa barraca de chão perto dos caminhões sem problemas, mas o piso é de pedregulho, como no ripio. Wifi indisponível hoje

January 3rd, 2020 by tomaskozler

interesting how the service quality can change so quickly. 2/3 male showers did not work at all, 1 was barely warmish. some tap sink taps didnt work either as well as the wifi. did sleep in a tent without a problem

December 18th, 2019 by carokrasneputovani.cz

Good coffee, they even have a free water outside so you can refill or clean your car.

December 16th, 2019 by berteli_unterwegs

We very lucky, it wasn‘t too windy, so we stayed behind the station where it was quiet (except for some occational trucks arriving) and not too well lit. Toilets are open 24/7 and the showers are great. Men’s shower seems to be open all day, women’s need a key (free of charge). The shop is open till 11pm. There is water at the petrolstation. Friendly staff.

December 5th, 2019 by maya.quest

Good overnight stop. Clean free bathrooms, with tp and showers. WiFi was fast. Felt safe!

November 25th, 2019 by Avonturen van Hans en Marleen

Bad weather this afternoon. Guys at the pump said card would not work in this weather. Stupid me believed them and paid cash plus gave an honest tip.
In the shop all worked just fine, of course... :-(

November 23rd, 2019 by dgrolfe

Free clean showers. Friendly staff. Free WiFi, slow. No space to block from winds if trying to sleep here.

October 17th, 2019 by b.chaski

Good stop for one night.
Parking lot behind the gas station but for small rigs it's probably better to park at the front of the restaurant, hiding behind the building because the wind is very very very strong. So you have the light but at least no wind. Pretty quiet at night. Good wifi.

Shower is working and very good and hot. Only one in the ladies toilets but on the truck side not the main one close to the restaurant. Cannot close is only a curtain. Free.

August 31st, 2019 by phonography.world

very good free clean hot shower ! free wifi too!

April 14th, 2019 by rafael.cschneider

Showers still closed for repair. Potable water near truck parking.

March 20th, 2019 by suelen da silva

Bom lugar para passar a noite, banho de graça mas o chuveiro não esquenta!

February 14th, 2019 by Calderescapes

Wanted to stay here but with winds of 120kmh we went back into town! Even the attendant told us to go into city.

February 4th, 2019 by vidadekombi.com

We spent two calm nights here, very good station with nice cafeteria and the SHOWERS are working now and for free. it's not wind protect but you can park beside the trucks.

February 1st, 2019 by wbrubaker

just noting that credit cards are accepted here since that hadn't been mentioned before.

January 21st, 2019 by rcoeli2005

Perfeito para passar a noite. Chuveiros quentes estavam abertos.

December 18th, 2018 by erich.marti.57

Yes, we got infinia diesel.

Site still under construction. Entrance coming from north 400m before roundabout via Lateral. From south vice versa.

December 9th, 2018 by AppleOverlander

Best shower in Argentina!
Good place for couple nights!
Even they gave us electricity!
Friendly staff!

November 14th, 2018 by srleite.wixsite.com

This gas station is really modern however there are not good place to stop to spend a night (very visible) but it is better than the gas stations in the city.

October 24th, 2018 by vivendomundoafora

the showers are close now, don't know why, just stayed 1 night, little noise because the trucks.

April 11th, 2018 by alexeilopes

No doubt .... the best place to stay in Rio Grande. I went to Casa Azul de Graciela, I went to Hostel Argentino, I went to other lodging .... not worth it, besides some are closed. This post has fast internet, bathrooms to top and the food made is fantastic. I ordered a snack on the plate ... Giant is very tasty. I RECOMMEND

April 7th, 2018 by mariana.canepa.13

muy buena ducha! estuvimos una noche, bastante ruido de camiones. wifi ok

March 31st, 2018 by double dutch world safari

okay for the night. Typical truckstop but clean ammenties.
wifi good when we were here.

March 1st, 2018 by jp86cz

Still hot showers gratis! New modern gas station, free good wifi.

February 26th, 2018 by viva-panamericana

We inly used the super nice showers and wifi. All for free and friendly staff!

February 15th, 2018 by Beetrax.com

New service station on bypass road of Rio Grande. No wind protection.

February 13th, 2018 by deuxevades.com

Showers still free, hot and clean. The women bathroom has only one shower and no lock. As it was 9am no-one enter when I was inside.
The wifi worked well from 7pm to 9pm but after not so much. We were able plug our laptop and work inside the cafeteria without consuming. It close at 11 pm.
Not so busy during the night.

February 11th, 2018 by brigitta

Wonderful hot showers (free) - girls have to ask for the key but than it is all yours. Very clean. In the Restaurant/Cafe good WiFi; powersockets for charging the computer.

January 30th, 2018 by gogobrunhilde

Modern, pretty new gas station just out of town. Free & clean shower, modern bathrooms, bad open wifi, friendly staff. Ok for a night, but not many sleeping spots appropriate for overlanders, it’s more planned for trucks.

January 27th, 2018 by panchosway2015

Showers were for free! They are next to the truck/bus pumps and drivers just walk in. Back door in the man's bathroom leeds to three showers. Very clean and hot.
Lady's bathroom was locked but we got the key without hesitation. One shower, you lock the bathroom and will have the entire facility for yourself.

Water tap with hose next to the machine to pump up a tyre. WiFi was free but useless, maybe it works at another time better.

Diesel was 17.73 so cheaper than in Porvenir or Russfin both at the Chilean side. Didn't sleep here, why would we if you can park close to the shore further south?

January 7th, 2018 by camilo.mendez

Sitio tranquilo para pasar una noche, baños limpios, duchas y agua caliente. No tiene protección al viento pero es muy tranquila. Tiene wifi protegida, no preguntamos la contraseña.

October 23rd, 2017 by steufree

Very good new ypf station just south out Rio Grande. All and brand new facilities

October 23rd, 2017 by steufree

Very new ypf station with all facilities and a large area to park and spend the night
