No Night life Area & Graffiti Everywhere

I stayed in the private apartment (thought was on sight) But it is down the street from the hostel. The apartment is basic and no shampoo or anything like that. Two towels and no dish towels. Apartment was kind of run down but the price is what you get. Bed was not that comfortable and no ac; just a fan. Area was close to the plaza and the lucia hill (5-10 minute walk) nice views from 22nd floor but stayed for 3 nights in Santiago and least favorite city so far; graffiti everywhere after the riots and looks really run down and a lot of hippies laying in parks and sidewalks. Zero night life nearby or walkable to go to if you like to go out and meet people close to your housing. Would recommend another area.

Hotel à Santiago près de tout

Arrive très tôt à l'Hostel le personnel fut très aimable et nous ont permis de laissé nos valises et de relaxer dans le petit salon. Sans que l'on en fasse la demande, ils ont pas attendu 2 heures pm pour nous donner accès à notre chambre. Tous les employés sont avenants et souriants. La chambre était comme le reste de l'immeuble, tres propre et agréable. Fortement recommandé!

비추

밤에 너무너무 시끄럽게 떠드는데 스태프들이 제대로 관리하지 않음. 조식도 너무나 별로였고 2층 침대에 올라가는 사다리가 없어서 옆 침대에서 건너 뛰어야 했음. 간판이 너무 작아서 찾기도 힘들었다. 다른 호스텔을 찾아보겠다.

Lugar mais ou menos (menos)

Se você vai esperando o mínimo de serviço, sairá desapontado pois como é um hostel, não limpam seu quarto e nem trocam sua roupa de cama. No quarto individual com suíte, o banheiro estava com o chuveiro quebrado e não há nenhum tipo de ventilador para enfrentar o verão chileno. Recomendo apenas para opção extremamente econômicas, com chances de encontrar um hostel melhor avaliado em outro local.

Overpriced - low standards

Overpriced and low standards. Toilet didn't flush, you have to take off your own sheets in the morning, towels for rent - they don't come standard in the private ensuite room. Hairs of previous guests in the bathroom. Ordered taxi didn't show up..
