We wanted a place to rest and take a shower before our flight at 0300 ub the morning. The room did not have heat. Thus no shower. We slept and left after midnight or so. We were so locked in we would never get out in casa of a fire.. A cold room and no shower. We were disappointed on two fronts.
The hostel itself was fine and in a convenient location, however it was on a loud, busy street all night long. HUGE negative comment is the total indifference and lack of control of the overnight desk clerk. We had to leave the hotel at 3:30 am for our early flight and there was a group of college students who were permitted to drink and party all night long. The desk clerk saw us arrive at the hotel after dinner and called us our 3:30 am taxi. Nothing was done to quiet the group, not just acceptable volume talking, loud shouting and activity.

Great hostel in the city
Great Hostal! Well situated 10 mins from the neighbourhood of Bella Vista where you have nightlife and food. Very safe and orderly. The showery was hot/cold and I thought it was a bit pricey but Chile in general is expensive. Great stay overall. Would stay there again and my friend ended up staying there again on his way out.
It was very, very clean. The beds were super comfortable. The place was really well decorated. The neighborhood was nice and there's a bunch of food across the street and next door. Short walk to lots of cool museums and the park. The only (slight) drawbacks were having to put on and take off the sheets and comforter cover yourself. It's just sown thing I don't like doing- especially the comforter cover! Agrhshs. And you take the sheets down to the reception floor. The other thing is that the kitchen is in the basement (check in ground floor; beds, bathrooms, and common area one floor above that). This means that you prepare breakfast on your floor and then carry your dishes down two stories to wash it. This and the sheets things basically just means that nothing gets done quickly. You can't race out of the hostel, and you can't carry all your stuff in one trip down the stairs. It's trivial, but I noticed it. Honestly though, the conditions were sooooo good that I would recommend to place anyway.
Own room wasn't cleaned. Cold shower and we asked specifically for a double bed as weare on our honeymoon and got two singles pushed together, for $71 per night this wasnt good enough, changed hotels to VO Suites for $AU56 a night. Got kitchen, double bed, hot showe

I suppose it will do!
Staff a bit cold, forgot to wake me and never ordered the taxi I needed. Share kitchen inoperable and shower broken. But clean and very central to the city. In front of Santa Lucia which is excellant. Unknowledgable and uninterested advice from staff on the city.
