First, be careful because if you read the good review, there are only talking about the private Bungalow. Which I didn't stay in. 

On the other hands, the dorms are very cheap (not the price as you can found way better for the same price).

There were lockers and beds are ok but quite old. Bathroom's door doesn't close and barely shut. The kitchen is ok, do the job.

Staff are super nice and you get welcome by dogs and chickens. 

It's quite dirty... 

Well, you can find better for a better price.. 

Carefull dorms vs private bungalows ! 

The hostel is in the outskirts of the town but the town itself is very small. Rooms are of adequate size, beds are not very comfy and they screak a lot. One of the lockers was torn down (but at least there were lockers near each bed). 
The big problem was the bathroom: the door had no lock and it could not be even closed properly because it would jam. Faucets were faulty and very hard to close, especially the one for hot water in the shower, which once opened took me a couple of minutes of tinkering to close. The toilet was a little faulty too. 
Cleanliness was decent but could be better overall. We did not use the kitchen, it seemed basic but overall functional. 
Notwithstanding, the staff is kind and helpful. Also the prices are a little cheaper than the average for El Chalten (which is not cheap at all).

Some maintenance would be needed

Among the cheapast places in El Chalten so my expectations were not so high. But it was worse then expected. Dirty room and bathroom. Dirty tables in the communal area. Old (but clean) sheets and very old and hard 
mattress. Friendly family though. I could be a nice place if the clearing was better. 

Cheap but dirty

We moved here from another hostel in the town and really loved this place..
This hostel is very clean, comfortable, and the atmosphere is great! (also great music all the time)
Hugo the house keeper is very warm nice and accepting he lives near by with his wife and two kids who are also very sweet..
The kitchen is big and very equipped.
The wifi regarding to el chalten is very fast and the shower always has hot water.
They are very flexible and would help you with everything you need. Obviously talking English.

Feels like home

In thought three times before come to El Chalten in low season because it's a ghost town and everything is closed.

Well, after being in a crowded and noisy El Calafate, I decided to take a rest in El Chalten.

I found the place through Booking for an affordable price that cannot compare with the endless joy I feel right now, writing this opinion.

Beds and bathrooms are clean which I was expected. Kitchen can be messy but the service is the best I've ever known. Hugo, the host, is a kind man who gave me a lots of advices about mountain trekking and we also exchanged stories.

I don't know how the place could be in high season, but in low season (when everybody leave town) I would recommend this place for sure. 

The place could be far away from the bus station but the view is incredible. It's also very close to the entrance to the Fitz Roy's circuit.
