Good hostel

Hostel in Santiago I had originally booked this hostel for a week, but changed my mind and only booked for 1 day. Not because I didn't like the place, but because my plans had changed. I had my own room with a shared bathroom and toilet. The room consisted of a double bed, a chest of drawers and a fan to give me some cool air in the heat. The hostel itself was perfect, it was perfectly located and the people who worked there were super nice and helpful. Breakfast is included in the incredibly cheap price of the night.

Not bad!

Pretty clean but slightly tired hostel. The reception staff were very helpful if you needed something. Not the most social of places but maybe that was just the vibe at the time! Nice location next to Forestal park and within walking distance to almost everything

They serve breakfast but told me to wash dishes after eating breakfast. Where in the world make customer wash dishes? Totally unethical. I need refund for unethical service.

So here are the little gripes I had about this hostel: 1) the sofa in the lobby is uncomfortable it's so bad, they could really change it 2) even from inside my bedroom, the door could only be locked and unlocked with the key. So not only is this inconvenient, it's not safe in case of emergency evacuation 3) they need 2 or 3 fridges, just one is not enough for the whole hostel Like I said, these are just minor points and I had a very pleasant stay. The staff isn't only polite, they talk to you like they're your actual friends. I would certainly go back.

Overall an excellent option

Overall, this is a great place to stay hostal-wise. The shared bathrooms were always very clean, in both the AM and PM when I used them. I stayed in a single room (room 2) and was quite pleased with how comfortable the bed was and how the pillows were the perfect blend of firm and soft. Could use just one more pillow though. Reception speaks English as well. Major props for allowing me to check in earlier after a 24-hour flight journey! Rooms are very clean and housekeeping is also offered (from an unpleasant woman, a sharp contrast from the cheery reception). Breakfast is included and pretty simple but kept me satisfied with eggs (hard-boiled and one day scrambled offered), cereals, cheese slices and fruit. There is a fridge so you can store sundries and a big kitchen to cook. Of course, you should clean up your cutlery and plate ware after use! This isn’t a party hostel which I was super glad about. I slept really well each night. The mini fan in the room is super helpful to block out any noise - room 2 is the closest to reception so without the fan you would hear any talking or music there. A slight warning that the room had a slight musty smell of cigarettes bc a patio is right next to it, and you can smoke on there. Still wouldn’t prevent me from booking this room again (and I HATE cigarettes). The location of this place is ACE, within walking distance of the historic centre, as well as Bellavista. One thing: get rid of the gross bathroom mat!

Melhor hostel

A hospedagem foi tranquila e o lugar é ótimo. Super limpo, bem localizado, perto de estação de metrô e de alguns pontos turísticos. Foram super acolhedores e atenciosos! Café da manhã tinha várias opções: pão com manteiga ou geleia, cereais, café, suco, frutas.

El hostal en general esta bien, limpio, las camas cómodas, tienen conexiones para para cargar cel y electronicos en cada litera; pequeño en todos sus espacios pero simpático, el personal es educado, no sentí como mucha calidez, pero si son educados y tampoco hacen malas caras. Lo único es que a pesar de la ubicación geográfica buena, esta en una calle secundaria, que esta feona y en la noche creo que si me pondría algo nervioso salir o entrar

A really good hostal

We enjoyed our stay here. The hostal is in a good location where you can walk to many places. It's just minutes from the metro, supermarket, restaurants and major site seeing areas. The people are really helpful and nice. Breakfast is a buffet of eggs, fruit, juice, cereal, bread, jams, butter, coffee, milk and tea. We would definately stay here again.

O hostel tem uma boa localização e o atendimento é excelente. Os quartos sao antigos e pormisso tem cheiro de coisa velha. O cafe da manha é razoavel pelo valor da acomodação. Podia, melhorar na troca das cortinas dos banheiros.

Bom mas não voltaria

Hotel bem localizado, próximo do cerro sta Lúcia e SAN Cristóbal. Quarto ok, boa estadia, só não voltaria pelos inconvenientes com o café da manhã, se paguei a diária que oferecia café da manhã, acredito que eu possa tomar um café da manhã sem uma pessoa checando a quantidade que estou servindo e ainda dizer claramente que não é legal pegar mais de 1 ovo para fazer “ovos mexido”, nunca vi isso.
