Could anyone add this place as a « shower » place ? I am no longer there so I can’t.
Great place to have a free hot shower. If you are a women go ask for the key at the coffee or at the first door left from the coffee entrance. Clean, really hot shower, wifi at the coffee… I recommand.

We were not well received by the service station staff.
The place we were told to put the motorhome was not suitable and so we did not stay there.

Pasamos 2 noches acá. Estacionamiento super amplio, pedimos permiso y dormimos en la parte de atrás donde se quedan los camiones. La gasolinera tiene: duchas (para mujeres deben dejar un dni), agua caliente, wifi y hasta para lavar la ropa (es para los choferes de camiones pero si preguntan les permiten). Un excelente lugar para quedarse, lo recomendamos!

Report Check-In

Massive parking for trucks. The whole space was full of them.
Therefore we recommend not to park in the back of the YPF, you will disturb them and they need the space. The YPF has a costumer parking on the left. You will fit in with a sprinter or similar.

We stayed here with 4 other campers. It’s busy and loud.

Showers are only for truck drivers. But men’s can just walk in. For the female showers you need a personal document in exchange of the keys. With a little luck you will get it.

Estivemos aqui por 2 noites. O posto possui uma estrutura muito boa com banheiros e banho quente grátis. Os atendentes foram muito solícitos e simpáticos. No local param muitos caminhões então há certo barulho, mas nada que inviabilize a estadia. Não usamos, mas também há máquinas de lavar roupa (grátis). Local seguro.

We came back on our way back from Uspallata but arrived pretty late and all the spots in the back were taken. We parked to the left of the Ypf, to the right if the fast food place that looks like a motel.

Worst night we EVER had on the road. We were woken up constantly and then at 7am a guy leaf blowing the concrete was the cherry on top.

Awesome YPF, has everything, but park in the back! :)

We stayed here for 3 nights while visiting Mendoza. Free showers and bathrooms 24/7 (at the full store, the ones near the showers are closed at night)
Parked all the way to the back, next to a vineyard :) Had a VERY quiet night.

The last night we had to get towed back there and parked next to the ‘taller mecánico’ in the back. They opened at 9am, diagnosed the van and got it running in 30min and didn’t charge us a cent. One of the mechanics recommended another place for further work, called in advance for us and gave us directions. Awesome people there.

We spent one night here. Big station with free showers. Wifi was good.

Nous n’avons pas dormi sur place car arrivé le matin, mais on a pu y faire notre vaisselle et se doucher.
Douche chaude avec de la pression.
Homme et femme dans le même bâtiment mais séparés. C’est derrière la boutique de la station service. Dans l’air plutôt pour les camionneurs.
Il y a une machine à laver à dispo.
Pas utilisée car plusieurs heures d’attente mais elle est gratuite. Lavante mais pas séchante, pas d’étendages à disposition. Prévoir une corde et trouver des arbres ou poteaux !!
Douche pas hyper propre mais gratuite donc on peut pas se plaindre !

Plenty of space for all types of campers. Ofcourse there’s noise of trucks and cars entering the gas station but other than that we had a quit night.
Free showers (ask the staff where you can pick up the key). Women shower is in the front building. Men’s shower in the back building.

Definily if you are going to Mendoza, this is the place where you can park and take a shower for free, the wifi works 1 hour a day but ok (route your cellphone with your partner and you can get more than a hour eachother)

Truck stop, with covered area for motorhomes, barbecue grills, water point, 24-hour convenience store. The restroom for men's truck drivers/travelers was under renovation and the women's one was mixed, with free showers. We stayed 4 days and on the last one the men's bathroom was renovated and new. The bath had a record and lasted 5 minutes. We do not pay, however, travelers will be charged. The feminine remains free. There is a convenience outside the gas station, which is also from YPF with cheaper prices ;)

Posto de parada de caminhões, com área coberta para motorhome, churrasqueiras, ponto de água, loja de conveniência 24 horas. O banheiro para caminhoneiros/ viajantes masculino estava em reforma e o feminino estava misto, com duchas grátis. Ficamos 4 dias e no último liberou o banheiro masculino reformado e novo. O banho ficou com ficha e duração de 5 minutos. Não pagamos, porém, será cobrados de viajantes. O feminino permanece livre. Há uma conveniência fora do posto, que também é do YPF com preços mais baratos ;)

Lots of spaces next to a small grassy field/garden where the truck drivers sleep. Safe and secure to spend the night. There were covered and shaded parking for cars. Excellent rest stop.

We asked to exchange Blue Dollar at YPF but the rate was a little low compared to the rate in Mendoza.

Coffee and Croissants from FULL (convenience store).

Okay for a night. Slept here with a few fellow overlanders. Limited traffic noise. Parilla until very late. Car alarms going off during the night. The women's toilets were just okay, the men's toilets were really dirty (even unusable).

Heading north we stayed here in our car for one night as it’s a lot nicer than the YPF northbound. WiFi is very slow and toilets aren’t the cleanest but it’s free and on the parking lot for cars you find quieter places with less light. Would recommend!

Friendly staff who agreed to let us pass the night and refill our water. Bathroom clean. Some shade available. Felt very safe.

Report Check-In

Large YPF station with big truck parking lot at the rear. The parking lot has many subdivisions, even a separate one for cars -- I stayed at the smallest one for trucks, farther from the restaurant as the traffic there seemed lighter and the restaurant WiFi was mediocre anyway.

There were some trucks already parked in for the day with the truckers relaxing on beach chairs and drinking beer. Some trash and lots of flies/mosquitos, but otherwise good. The restaurant proper was closed (according to the convenience store attendants, it opens only for lunch and closes by 4PM) but the convenience store had sandwichs , croissant bread and sodas.

Searched around for electrical outlets but the only ones I could find used weird format and were clearly marked as 380V, so no go. Inside the convenience store there were some normal (Argentinian format) electrical outlets near the rear dinner tables, but I didn't test them.

we camped there with our rooftoptents. Nice and safe place. Not to much noise at 'night.

Free WiFi networks did not work for us, did not asked for passwords to others. Getting a key from the shower was a quest:
- ask first at lubricentro
- if you are told that it is for truck drivers only - do not believe and go to other worker
- if no luck, ask for a guy who's name is Angel (pronounced as anhel), he opened it for us eventually
Pretty possible for overnight even with rooftop tent.

we stayed here one night on the parking lot behind the building but not to close to the fence. everything was fine. didnt try the showers. internet was working a bit even in the car.

We spent one night there, not too noisy. Free hot showers when showing receipt of petrol. Warning: do not park at the far end of the car park near the vinyards as people can jump over and rob your véhicule - we were warned by a truck driver - better to stay near the showers building.
