Cool property and great staff but the property has some age so set your expectations accordingly.

Location was good and it was close to several cool barrios. The property had a historical feel to it and comfortable.

My daughter made the comment that her bedding was not clean but I didn't verify this. She also took issue with the shower cleanliness.

Location, bright decor, excellent courtyard where you could chill and have something to eat. Totally recommend this for

This hostel was one of the best hostels we have stayed in and it is great for families. We are travelling with our 18 and 16 year old kids and the room had a queen and 3 singles. Plenty of room for our bags and had a private bathroom. The staff we extremely helpful, great breakfast and it felt very safe.

Nothing - maybe the stairs however we had backpacks so it wasn’t an issue.

Historic house.

Breakfast is very good with a wide selection of fruit, bread and eggs if desired. The hostel is within 4 blocks of the Bella Vista area where there a good selection of bars and restaurants. Easy walking or metro distance to Plaza de Armas. Each of the rooms is a bit different since the hostel is in an older home. The rooms in the back are quieter. No AC but most nights are cool. Exceedingly helpful staff.

Historic hostal

Upscale hostel in an historic building. Close to the Bella Vista area with restaurants and a few metro stops from Plaza de Armas. Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Each room is different.

No AC but typically the temperature cools off in the evening.

Staff was friendly, welcoming and helpful. Location was very convenient. Lovely old building with charm and character. Room on front street was very loud (traffic) but with closed windows (very thick) this wasn’t a problem for except a little stuffy.

Breakfast was prompt and fulling, but the same every day. No gluten free options offered.

Very comfortable, great service, easily accessible to Lastarria

Very comfortable, centrally located, clean, and with lovely decoration and design. We appreciated the kind staff, and though we didn't eat breakfast there, it looked like it was delicious! We'd definitely stay there again in Santiago in the future.

Nothing - we really enjoyed our stay.

The staff were always so helpful. Miriam is a gem. She got me checked in and oriented me to the hostel and the area. The rooms are so cozy and bed is comfortable.

Always the best choice in Santiago

The atmosphere is one of the kind and the stuff makes you feel at home. Big breakfast with nice choices. I also like the colourful vibe of the place.

The economy single room was really small and the bathroom was really tight. There was no table to work, but that could be done in the common area.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the staff was exceptionally kind and helpful. The place is very clean, well kept, colorful and decorated with taste. Really feels like being home away from home.

The personnel was great and very helpful Great location So quiet The breakfast was good too Great building, love the design

Don’t have much to say… the only thing would be the bathroom is a bit too small but that’s ok and not too bad. I had a great stay and I’m actually coming back to the same place.

Best choice in Santiago for solo traveler!

It's a wonderful choice for solo travelers. Its also a great choice for girls who travel alone. Definitely my first choice in Santiago! Clean, safe, nice staff!!!!

The only thing is you can hear the hallway sound when people pass by. But everyone is quiet at night, in the morning may wake you up. With an ear plug would be solved!

Excellent value in a well located pension. The casual and comfortable ambiance set a restful tone.

Enjoyed my short stay. All of the excellent reviews and photos were accurate! Nice common areas including an interior patio. WiFi worked well. Very helpful staff for guiding you to restaurants, historical sites and different modes of transportation. Drinks available from a small bar. Several major museums and historical sites are accessible on foot. Highly recommend.
