If you stay in rooms - you hear everything what happens in the hotel. Hard to sleep. Probably cabanas should be better. Everything else is fine. Continental breakfast is good you can order eggs additionally.

Although the family style cabins are quite dated, for the price it’s clean, the staff is lovely and super helpful and there are good options for eating. Wish the cabins were outside and allowed fresh air as it was very hot and we could not get a breeze through the room to cool it down.

Book Don Pepe for the convenience. Easy walk to downtown. This is a low cost, very simple place. The rooms are suitable, low cost rooms. Beds were surprisingly comfortable (although obviously old), showers had strong hot water (although small with a plastic shower curtain that sticks to you while you shower). Outside of the room is the place to be! They have many tables in a beautiful greenhouse like area with fabulous plants and flowers!! We hung out outside while waiting for others in our group to get ready. I would recommend for anyone looking for a simple inexpensive place to stay at is in walking distance to downtown.

This place looked fine in the photos but when we checked in it was so dingy and dated. Our room smelled like gas. The bathroom had a weird setup. Bed was not good. Just nothing was quite right. We ended up moving to another similarly priced hotel just down the street that was so much better. The people at reception were nice.

The hotel is adjscent to main street, in walking distance to shops and resteraunts. The hotel staff are very nice and helpful. We stayed in both regular room and family bungalow. The regular room is in good condition. But, I would avoid to stay in the bungalow, due to less desired condition.

Extremely friendly staff - great location

This is not really a hotel, but more like an "inn" or a B and B. I understand that there are some cabins in the complex, but the room we got was very small, with a rustic decor and not too many amenities. The room and bathroom were very clean. The WiFi connection was good and the TV had CNN in English. Breakfast is limited but good. The location is great - the lake (Lago Argentina) in one direction and the center of town in the other direction, with a supermarket at the corner of the street. The best thing about this place are the staff/(owners?). They were extremely friendly and fulfilled all of our requests with a smile.
