Travelled with partner
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Ok. In need of general maintenance. Lots of plumbing issues. Only hot water in shower on one night so scalding hot. Toilet doors don't shut or lock. Only cold water from sink but only hot water in shower. Breakfast ok but not great. Staff excellent. Overall ok but needs attention to detail and upkeep/improvement. Not expensive though so ok overall considering how expensive Pategonia is in general.
