    I recently stayed at Folk Suites in El Calafate for a couple of nights and had a wonderful experience. The staff was friendly and attentive, the room was cozy with a comfortable bed, and the wifi connection was reliable. I also appreciated the separate shower room and the delicious breakfast options offered starting at 6am. a great hotel with all the amenities I needed.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    I had a really great stay at this hotel. The value for my money was excellent, with reasonable rates and a spacious, comfortable room. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the main street. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

    The breakfast experience could be improved by offering more variety.

    For the price we paid, we got great value and the room was very comfortable. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the main street, and the staff at Folk Suites were incredibly friendly and helpful.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with a wider variety of cooking utensils and dishes available in the kitchenette.

    Spacious living areas and bedroom, with separate shower and toilet. Good breakfast options made fresh. Close to bars and restaurants. a bit pricey but a fine choice for a few nights.

    The staff at the hotel were really friendly and helpful, providing us with great recommendations for local attractions and restaurants. The location of the hotel was also fantastic, as it was within walking distance of the main avenue and other popular attractions. the rooms were clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and relaxing space to unwind after a day of exploring.

    There were a few downsides to our stay. the walls in the rooms were quite thin, which meant that we could hear some noise from neighboring rooms.

    As a tourist, I loved the convenient location near the main street and travel agency. The breakfast options were delicious and freshly made. The comfortable bed was a plus, and the separate shower and toilet area were appreciated. Luggage storage was free, and the first-day staff member was very nice. The breakfast area with sofas was a great place to relax before our afternoon bus.

    Felt very homey, no complaints.

    I stayed at Folk Suites for 4 nights during my trip. The location was perfect, close to the main street with restaurants. The room was spacious and the staff spoke English, making it easy to arrange tours. I also appreciated that when paying with Argentinian pesos, they used the official exchange rate from US Dollars. The common areas had a pleasant decor, with a kitchen available. The front desk offered convenient tours and the wifi was reliable. Folk Suites provided a comfortable and convenient experience.

    Can recommend this hotel.

    I chose Folk Suites specifically because of its proximity to Laguna Nimez Reserva Natural Municipal. I wanted to explore the beautiful natural reserve and having the hostel within walking distance was very convenient. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised by the helpfulness of the staff at Folk Suites. The 24-hour front desk and luggage storage were particularly useful during my stay.

    One staff member had a negative attitude during check-in, making it my worst hostel experience. He was rude and pushy, insisting I book tours through the hostel instead of exploring on my own.

    I keep coming back for the helpful staff after an insect bite. The place suits me perfectly with Wi-Fi, laundry, and a bar. I also love the board games and billiard tables. Can't wait for my next romantic escape.

    We had a wonderful stay at Folk Suites. The common areas were spacious and inviting, perfect for relaxing and meeting other travelers. The breakfasts were delicious and the staff were always friendly and willing to help. We particularly enjoyed the double room with the separate toilet and shower, providing added convenience. The location was also great, just a short walk from the main street and close to the beautiful Laguna with flamingoes. our experience at Folk Suites was fantastic!
