The apartment is great. The checkin is a long way from your apartment. You have to navigate steps and steep inclines to get to the entrance. Codes worked great for the building but not the apartment. So you hike back to check in to get a lock reset. It is ok if you have two or more people but with one you need to carry bags back and forth. I really like the place yet they need to simplify the check in process. Hopefully is better for those regularly using WhatsApp. Consider getting it if you don’t have it!

Great place. Clean, great location, spacious. The location is in a busy street so it is a little loud, but I was so tired every day that I was able to sleep throughout the night. The kitchen was a great idea because most coffee shops open around 9 and the tours usually pick you up around 8. Highly recommended to stay a few days in Ushuaia!

Great property. Access to check in is more confusing for us gringos than it needs to be - it’s literally the hotel directly behind the property (on the street behind). Best location in town.

It's an Option

The hotel is vary cute and charming. We stayed in the adjacent apartments that were around the corner but part of the property. As a result we felt a bit disconnected from the main property having to go outside and walk around the block for breakfast or to interact with their very helpful staff. Our apartment was adequately comfortable with minimal attention to decor. The hot water in the bathroom varied unpredictably from burning hot to cool. On the plus side, it's located in a very walkable area making it easy to access restaurants, shopping and sites.

Comfortable Digs

A sweet smallish boutique type hotel in a great location. Easy to walk to the heart of town and restaurants. The staff is excellent, so friendly and helpful. Breakfast is adequate and very predictable. We stayed in one of the apartments. Comfortable but not facncy space. The bathroom was a tight space and both the sink and shower faucets were funky, fluctuating between extremely hot and cold water. If you are not looking for a five star hotel experience this hotel may be well-suited for you.
