I knew I was going low-end with this property. I wanted to save money on the few days I was in Ushuaia and this place got great reviews, so I thought I would give it a try. The owners are lovely people and are friendly. The property is well maintained, although very basic. The room was tiny, but that was accurately stated. The view is misleading as there is now a new building going up in the middle of the view. There was no safe--that was very disconcerting as I had thousands of dollars in cash and expensive electronics as well as three passports and a bunch of credit cards and documents I really did not like being exposed. There did not seem to be any threat, but it is still disconcerting to go out knowing that everything is exposed. The room was definitely not good for people with any mobility issues as it was two floors down in a tight staircase. I was also not sure about fire safety. I guess the best way out was through the window if anything happened. Another irritant was being informed that no outside food or drinks were permitted on the property. So much for a beer or chips in the middle of the night. They also had the oddest check-in procedure I have ever seen. I had to take a picture of my passport and then set them up in Whatsapp to send the picture. I then had to use their QR code to get rules and price list, etc. At checkout I was charged 9,900 pesos for a bottle of wine that was 2,400. It took the women three times to get this right.
