Facilites are great. Lounge, kitchen, yard are awesome.
The room is nice, lockers are big and the private bathroom, shower and sink are separated from each other, which is great.
Ignacio and Mari are awesome, give them a raise!!!!
One of the power sockets was broken.

Gli spazi comuni sono molto belli e anche il giardino! Tutto lo staff è super disponibile e gentile
Un po’ troppo costoso per quello che offrono, abbiamo trovato in altri posti prezzi più bassi con colazione inclusa, in più la cucina è un po’ piccola per tutta la gente che alloggia nell’ostello

La atención de los chicos en recepción, excelente!
La cama, super cómoda. Habitación con lockers grandes, y cómoda. Los baños de espacios comunes siempre impecables. La cocina amplia y completa. Se respetaron los horarios de descanso, luego de las 23hs los espacios comunes se liberaban quedando en silencio.
El baño de la habitación no contaba con jabón de manos. La ducha el primer día no salía agua y a los dos días tampoco funcionaba correctamente. La puerta de la habitación no cerraba bien y hacía muchísimo ruido, lo cual se torna un poco incómodo para la convivencia.
Podrían incorporar juegos de mesa. En todos los hostels suelen tener. Preguntamos y no tenían más que la mesa de pool y un ajedrez.

Bon emplacement, proche des randos. Les chambres sont petites mais salle de bains pour chaque dortoirs, propre (nettoyé chaque jour). Les lits sont corrects mais pas exceptionnel non plus. La qualité du wifi est plutôt bonne.
Il fait un peu chaud dans les chambres. Le petit déjeuner n'est pas inclus et coûte 6000 pesos (fin décembre 2023). L'auberge est si grande qu'elle fait pas très chaleureuse.

Perfect location, decent wifi, friendly staff! Sandra, Marie and Nacho were like close friends by the end of our week at Pioneros del Valle. We loved our stay there! Everything was clean, beds and rooms were comfortable and it was a good price for the area.
The kitchen isn’t the best we’ve seen for a hostel but it’s not horrible. We cooked two simple meals and it was fine.
5.0
Large kitchen and comfy common area.
No water in the showers for a fully day. Dorm rooms are quite cramped, very little space to put your stuff. Since this is a very large hostel, the rules are quite rigid, and they don't seem to be very flexible.

Excellent stay!

Location was excellent. Cost was very reasonable. Room was comfortable.
Kitchen was not very well stocked: limited cookery (pots and pans), silverware (no knives, mostly just forks), no scissors, terrible can opener, lack of towels for drying dishes and hands, temperature in the building was too warm.
8.0
The hostel was lovely. It had good facilities and the staff were helpful. The beds were comfy, but super noisy.
The rooms were small and had very noisy storage cupboards. Unfortunately some people would turn up late at night and make a lot of noise. We stayed for 4 nights and I would say that was probably too long! Sadly, the town is a complete rip off as businesses are making the most out of the tourists.

Well organized hostel
Constantly running water in the kitchen, it needs to be fixed immediately, not sustainable, not eco-friendly
8.0
Its Staff was kind and helpful, also this hostel is located near the entrance to the National Park and the start of some trekking roads. Kitchen and bathrooms are clean and always with cold & hot Water in the shower.
Some lockers need maintainance and the bunk beds are too low. Also they don't offer you shampoo nor towels.

Good location for all the hikes, the dorm we stayed in had a separate bathroom and shower in the room which worked very well.
It was clean and tidy!
the kitchen was very big but it did lack Utensils and things to cook with! there were no tin openers and about 3 knives shared with 100+ people in the hostel!

Good that there was an upgrade option, we paid the difference amount and upgrade to private room since there was no lock for the bathroom inside the mixed bed dormitory rooms.
We are a couple and we booked 2 beds in the 6 mixed bed dorm since we planned to stay only one night, as we reached there was no lock for the bathrooms inside the mixed Dormitory. We approached the reception to check whether there is a key for the lock in the bathrooms, They were ignorant and their reply was "if you don't see the lock in the bathroom then it means there is no lock". As my wife was completely uncomfortable we paid extra and upgraded to private room.

This was the best place that I stayed during my Hostel stays in Argentina. I liked a lot their staff which is very helpful and friendly. It made mine stay there more warmful and happiest.
Just the wifi. If I had to work will not be possible. I was on my 1 week of holiday, so it was not a problem at all. More time and focus to enjoy the nature and people of this place.
7.0
I really liked the manager she was amazing. They cleaned the rooms everyday. I really liked the two cleaning ladies. The shower was HOT which was very important to me.
not bad or good but a lot of people are there just to hike so it’s empty most of the day until
everyone comes back and then everyone is tired.
the kitchen could use some more things like a can opener. I get that people steal things like that because they go camping but it would be nice.
the bunk beds are low if you are in the bottom. the top bunk doesn’t have anywhere to put your stuff so it’s always falling below.

Good location, near to the trail paths
The bed was not comfortable, you even can't seat in.

beautiful hostel great facilities
the staff wasn’t nice to us israelis. we were a small group, and they always told us to be quite and threatened that they will cancel our stay. why do I need to worry about where I’m staying tomorrow? it was always said with an aggressive tone, and only for us israelis, even though that there were more groups who talked at night (it wasn’t even that late, 22 they are shutting the lights)

Location was perfect for fitz roy and torres hikes & salto waterfall.
When we arrived the shower in the room was making a loud screeching noise and was running non stop. Lock on locker was also broken. Shower was fixed same day but shortly broke again. Locker was left for 3 days.
It was hot tap in the shower that was running constantly which meant the whole room became damp throughout the day whilst we were out. There must be cracks in the shower cubicle because when it filled with water, the other side of the wall/tiles flooded. By the end of our 5 day stay it was smelly and wasn't cleaned (although cleaner must have been in the room because bin was emptied daily).
Partner had to request to move bed as there was something biting him (around 30 bites in one night), none of the other 5 people were biten in the room which made us question the cleanliness of the sheets. One guy was actually checked in to a bed that had already been slept in!
Kitchen is always dirty, but adequately stocked with tools to cook.
Rarely any toilet paper in communal toilets.
Wi-Fi absolutely rubbish unless sat in the communal area by reception on the mattresses that are grim.

Has private bathroom and really nice share place
The bunk bed in the hostel are really uncomfortable, they are not higher enough so you hit your head all the time and even can't seat in your own bed.

Good value for bed and bathroom.
One of the guys at the reception was super rude and didn't offer any help saying he is "busy". Let it be known that he was "busy" only when Israelis reached him.

Very noisy at night, which made it hard to sleep.
