El Refugio is very cool, as is the staff!! Very friendly, helpfull and easy-going! The bad part was our room... We stayed in one of the double rooms on the bottom floor. When half of the hostal got up in the morning to climb the volcano, we had the feeling everyone was walking around on the wood floors over our... More

Sorry to be a party pooper for a hostel which normally gets rave reviews but.... this hostel has a lot going for it although it was sometimes a bit of a stressful experience because of the following: - not enough bathrooms - bit annoying having people trying to get in every 2 minutes when you are trying to have a...

We booked this hostel on the internet for two nights. When we arrived very early in the morning they were already up and about and gave us some thee and a detailed explanation about the town and all the things you can do around it. We immediately booked two nights extra which we really needed, there is lots to do.... More

The worst part was is the flea infestation, by two nights I was covered... More

Great place to meet other travelers. The staff is super helpful, We received a detailed explanation of all the options in and around Pucon. We slept in the 3 person Dome and it was more than ok. It gets a little warm around 10AM but by then it's time to wake up anyways. A perfect location close to the mayor... More

Its like staying in a lodge with your mates. Cosy and clean, hot water in the showers and wifi not a problem. The staff are super friendly and eager to help you make the most of your stay by recommending activities, things top see and do in town, where you can buy cheap groceries and the best restaurants and bars....

Beautiful old wooden house with a very cosy common area with two fire places. Good equiped kitchen and very nice and helpful staff who organize a very tasty and cheap BBQ once a week. Would be nice too have breakfast too for the price per night. Location is central, beds and bathrooms are good.
