Best location in Castro, Chiloe
A bit aged hotel, the furniture a bit overused, but the bed were extremely confortable. The window was direct to a wall, with no views. The bethroom was ok, with with shower. The good points were its location, very conveniently located near restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacy, bank, and most of tourist attractions located downtown. And the best was they do provide parking underground.

Free parking on ground level a big plus. Staff very friendly. Breakfast was predictable but satisfactory; there is no buffet, only fixed menu per person. Location is super convenient for walking through the town. Hotel is quite old, but somewhat updated. Our room was very spacious.

Our room was directly beneath a pool (billiard) game room, and all night I was kept awake by the sound of balls hitting the floor. Otherwise, things were adequate.
