It is a nice place in a cantral part of town. The staff are very nice and help out where they can. The rooms are well equipped, not luxurious but more than adequate for the price.

Conveniently located by the Baquedano metro stop and bus stops, this charming guesthouse has a European feel. Staff are kind and attentive and the rooms and facilities are very clean. They serve a healthy and filling breakfast every day. Sometimes a little noisy from the streets and other guests. I would absolutely stay here again.

Comfy in Santiago
Our second stay at this hotel and again we found it very welcoming and comfortable. The hotel is a lovely arts and crafts style building in a central position.
The bedroom was small but adequate with a comfortable bed; we both slept well. Breakfast is a limited buffet style meal but tasty and ample enough to get the day started well. The locality was a little more depressed than on our previous visit due to civil unrest a few years ago.

Good location, the best staff
Caroline was very friendly and helpful. She managed to find a good transfer for us to Farellones and made everything she could to make us have the best experience possible. The hotel has good location near Lastarria and metro station. The fresh yogurt is a must try. The facility is a historical building, don’t expect anything fancy, but it’s fair enough considering the price. Very good quality / price ratio

We stayed here for just 1 night but very early check-in (06.00am), staff are very helpful and prompt response to our questions during booking and requested.
During our stay Jimmy and Alex again very helpful recommend places to go where to eat including transportation assist.

After we left, we forgot some money in hotel safe box, once again staff very helpful transferred money back to our account.
Highly recommend, 5 Star with big thank you from us. We will back there for sure.

I don't have many hostal experiences but this is worth every penny. The food delicious and the staff super. The only bad thing is that the floor of the room is made of wood and you can hear your moves and other guest. Also it was uncomfortable that early in the morning or late at night you can hear loud people. But everything was amazing. I was a solo traveler and felt safe. Even doe I came in at night.
