Positives: Good location and very quiet. Comfortable bed and spacious room. Lovely dining room and common areas. Breakfast is nice in the morning with lovely staff.
Negatives: The owner Diego refused to help us with recommending a tour before we arrived citing that he couldn't be held responsible which seemed a bit weird as everywhere else we've stayed have been happy to help with tours. The WiFi is really poor and barely seemed to work at times. The bedroom is very bare with thin drafty windows and very thin curtains, there is a gas heater but no instructions on how to use it so you have to work it out for yourself which seems a bit dangerous. The bathroom door of our room didn't close and the mirror was broken. The lock and hangers were covered in tape and all felt a bit rundown. The lock to get in and out of the hotel is really dodgy and hard to use. We had a very bizarre experience one evening when we bought takeaway pasta from an amazing pasta deli (Tia Olivia) down the road to eat in the otherwise empty dining room. When we got up to the dining room Diego was waiting for us and quite bluntly informed us (like naughty school children!) that the dining room was not for eating in and we could eat in our room 'if we liked' and could take cutlery from the dining room. It was all very weird and we ended up eating dinner on the floor in our room! Overall I'd stay here a night maximum but not anymore as quite a...
Read moreThis is such a quaint; old fashioned way inn ? Would be appropriate 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️. Definitely not your ordinary cold hotel chain with lack of character. It feels more like you’re returning to your grandma’s house x the holidays than a hotel. Staff makes you feel you’re part of their family, warm cozy atmosphere with magnificent views and communal spaces where you can share with other travelers from around the 🌎 your experiences. I arrived early, check in time is not before 2:00 pm promptly. The nice lady that opened the door kindly offered me breakfast (wish I should have known to skip it at the airport, very expensive by the way).She made me feel right at home and very welcomed while waiting for the person to check me in. |I opted in for the suite, completely worth the price. Spacious with amazing views of the Beagle Channel, very comfortable bed. If only the room would have usb charges, black out curtains as sun sets late, reminds me of Iceland! And the heat will work better but these are just details. |Is NOT! Far away from town. An easy walk! Would definitely go back and highly...
Read moreStayed here for four nights. The house itself has a lot of atmosphere, especially the upstairs breakfast room, which feels like a Victorian Age parlor. Staff was friendly enough, though I didn’t really see them again after check in.||The room itself was less impressive. It was fairly small with three uncomfortable single beds and not much in the way of decor except for a couple of nautical themed pictures. The shower head in the bathroom was attached to the ceiling, which was pretty high up, making it difficult to adjust. I’m 5’ 10”, so I can’t imagine how someone shorter could deal with it. Otherwise, the room was clean, so the housekeeping staff does a good job.||The house is located about a ten minute walk uphill from the main part of town. Walking downhill to town isn’t an issue, but walking back uphill could be if you have any mobility or respiratory problems. On the plus side, Uber is available in Ushuaia and the ride to or from town is very cheap.||I wanted to like this place more. It’s okay for a short stay, but I think you would be better off staying somewhere in the main...
