Hostel estilo chalé de montanha moderno

Foi o melhor hostel que fiquei na minha viagem. Após os passeios durante o dia, a área do restaurante é bem aconchegante, com vista para o Lago Argentino e com uma temperatura agradável, mesmo sem aquecedor (eles costumam acender a lareira à noite). O restaurante oferece boa comida a preço compatível com os da cidades (dependendo do prato, mais caro ou mais barato do que no centro), além de ser o espaço para fazer amizades e trocar experiências de passeios na região.
