Exquisite Restaurant

During my stay, I had dinner at the hotel's restaurant, and the food was absolutely wonderful! I particularly enjoyed the beef with mashed potatoes and sauce, which was among the best I had encountered in my travels through Argentina. I highly recommend dining here.

Clean and Functional

The bathroom was well-maintained and provided everything I needed for a refreshing shower after a long day of exploring. I particularly loved the fragrant calafate berry soap provided, which added a special touch to my experience.

I had a pleasant stay at Hosteria Koi Aiken, where the staff went above and beyond to make my experience enjoyable. The room was comfortable and clean, and the in-house restaurant served delicious meals. However, the walls were a bit thin, which affected the overall peace of my stay, and the dining experience had some minor issues during busy times. Overall, it offers good value for budget-conscious travelers.
