The hostel is run by the owner Senora Alba. It is a bed and breakfast place. The actual room that I got to use was better than the one posted on your website. The place is kept clean and is very quiet conducive to a restful and quiet stay. However the place is a bit of a walk to downtown, about 20 to 30 minutes.

Alba was very helpful and her place is located in a quiet area. It is still fairly close to the center of Ushuaia, so things worked out very well in regard to having the flexibility to see this part of Tierra del Fuego. Definitely good value.

Very pleasant room, clean, good shower, location ok, a few minutes walk to the start of the main street. Alba was very helpful arranging anything we wanted, ensuring every morning she checked to see if we needed anything. She even got up early on a Sunday to do us an early breakfast, when she didnt have to!

Das Hostel ist wirklich schön und wir wurden auch freundlich empfangen. Wir haben allerhand Informationen über die möglichen Aktivitäten in Ushuaia erhalten. Leider kam es beidemale zu einer Falschbuchung der geplanten Touren von Alba, was aber dann direkt beim Tourguide aufgeklärt werden konnte. Wifi ist exzellent, außer wenn der Gottesdienst in der Küche direkt nebenan stattfindet und 2 Stunden lang lautstark Hallelujah gesungen wird - dann wird kurzerhand der Stecker gezogen.

Alba is helpful to get us an earlier breakfast, and called taxi for us. She didn\'t seem to like to talk to guests. It\'s a bit far from center. Need to walk ~ 15 minutes. However, the walk is pleasant, can walk along the shore. Stairs are too steep. Breakfast is decent. Nice decor. Clean.

Central of town, 10min walk. A very good connection with the tour agencies in town. The landlady was very kind. She reserves everything for me(Including the Pira Tour) in USH before I arrived. When she knew that I was not able to make the afternoon Pira Tour, she was able to switch quickly to the morning one(last minute). When I wanted to pay in US dollars, she accepted it with the currency exactly that day. When I had a problem with my debit card, she even lent me Skype account to call US.

We had a perfect stay in this lovely little hotel. If you are traveling as a couple and looking for a perfect double room, including bathroom, this is a great place to stay for a perfect price. Alba is very helpfull and tells a lot about were you can go and were are cheap places to eat. It's about 10 min walk to the citycentre an just a few minutes to a good bakery and a big supermarket!

The owner is a great woman, with excellent English and is a font of knowledge about the general area. The B&B is slightly older but very clean and neat. I would recommend it
