Apartment was spacious, good bed and shower, adequate kitchen facilities. View of the harbor and Beagle Channel was very nice. Breakfast in the associated hotel (about 1 block away) was good, though scrambled eggs were a bit runny and lukewarm. Only major complaint is that the apartment is almost directly above a dance academy, which was pretty loud during 2 of the 3 nights we were there, even with the windows closed.

Modern and well-equipped apartment in the heart of Ushuahia. The bathroom can be tight and there is not a lot of space to move around or arrange toiletries. There is a dance studio next door and sometimes the music is loud well into the evening, with little to no soundproofing in the building. Other than this, it was a very enjoyable stay!

The apartment is very nice, clean and well furnished and the bed is so comfortable. We stayed at the 5th floor and we had such an amazing view from each part of the apartment. Everything was just perfect! The all staff is excellent, in particular I want to thank Angie from the reception: she has been so kind, she took care of us during all our stay ensuring everything was ok. We will for sure come back again to Departamentos La Vela. Muchas gracias por todo!

Great location and view!

Wonderful apartment with a great view, would definitely stay here again. Within a quick walk of the main streets and port. The sidewalks aren’t the best around the area so if you have a rolling suitcase be prepared for some rough patches and a small hill, but worth every bit of maneuvering.

We stayed 3 nights at LA VELA in Room 3B. This picture shown on the website is NOT of La Vela but rather it is the lobby of the Alto Aldino hotel around the corner (this is where you check-in and check-out, and where you have breakfast if you have paid for this option). Our room was like an apartment with a large bed, living room, full kitchen with all utensils & dishes etc. The bathroom was very small (zero counter space for toiletries) but functional and clean. The view from this room was fantastic and looked out to the harbour with water views. The room had good A/C, wifi, in-room safe, and an elevator. Getting from the Alto Andino to the La Vela is very inconvenient with a steep hill upward (it was hell dragging our luggage when we checked-in). To get to breakfast every morning, we discovered the staircase (bright yellow, if you turned right as you exit the La Vela) and we used this daily. There are lots of stairs and this could be problematic if you are older or have mobility issues - in that case please stay at the Alto Andino. The breakfast on the top floor of the Alto Andino was very crowded, with decent hot/cold options and a beautiful seating area with a terrace view (great spot for photos). This town is generally super hilly so be prepared to walk up and down steep hills. Once you get down to the main harbour area, then it is flat. Lots to see and a myriad of restaurants. TIP: Remember to get to the Tourist Center and get your passport stamped.
