They may have water but not for motorhomes. If your tank is empty, the only option is Camping Municipalidad.

Paramos pra abastecer e completar o tanque pois vamos até Esquel e não tem outro posto no caminho. Bem bom o posto, tem uma boa loja de conveniências, tem ducha quente e wi-fi é bom! Bom lugar pra passar a noite.

They were super nice and allowed us to pitch our tent in the car park. We pitched down the back in a corner, sheltered and sort of out of sight. WiFi works. Clean toilets with hot water in the sinks. The shop was open quite late (we arrived at 23:30) but still wasn’t open in the morning when we left at 8:15.

As it was extremly windy we spent a night at this station (after we gave ourself a deserved treat at the Parrilada place) Well protected and quiet - the truck drivers leave at 7.00am. Banos very smal but clean - even with hot water for handwashing. Showers available but we did not use. WiFi is good - we drank a coffe in the morning and the girl at the counter typed the password in our devices when we asked for the PW - very friendly and helpful.

Maybe we got lucky but this was the best gas station stay we've had in 11 countries. Decent sandwiches and beer at the cafe- normal prices - for Argentina and Chile. We stayed inside the cafe and used wifi and charged phones for like 4 hours no problem. Showers had hot water. We did't pay for the showers? - but we did fill up with gas and buy stuff in the cafe...Bathrooms busy but quite clean considering how many people use them. Good wifi. Parked across the street on the cafe side and got good wind block from the trees. Free hot water for thermos/cups by the bathrooms. No problems. Staff varied from indifferent to nice. But not rude. Truck car noise late into the night and again early in the morning. But considering that r40 is so windy and open we felt like we scored:)

We spent a quiet night here, protected from the wind. The trucks started back in the morning around 7am. The bathrooms where extremely filthy, no flushing working. But the have a free hot water dispenser opposite the bathrooms and good wifi. New pw: [Password removed by Moderator.]

Worst gas station ever! Totally overpriced, bad food, they don’t give out the WiFi password anymore (the grown up son of the owners finally wanted to type it into our cellphones, when his father came and started yelling at his so right in front of us, in general, very unfriendly owners!
We slept on the side by the wall/fence. Was windy and loud trucks in the morning, but it was 1am and nowhere else to go.

We did pay everything with our VISA credit card, so no problem concerning that.

And to end this on a positive note: They had soap and hot water in the ladies bathroom sink, so that was nice to wash up a bit, after a sweaty full-day ride on the 40! ;)

Showers are 30 Arg.
