The best part of the hotel is location . You can walk everywhere. We were advised to be more cautious in the area ( we did not have any problems). Overall it is a nice hotel for a couple days in Santiago.

Coming from the United States to Chile for the first time, I would have to say the staff treated me great! I am not great at Spanish, and they had patience with me. They also had English speakers there, but I wanted to speak as much Spanish as I could. Miguel and Dulce were two faces I could count on with any question I had about the area or service pertaining to the hotel.

Perfect location for a quick trip to Santiago
We loved our stay here. The price was great, location was great, and it has a nice little breakfast (basic, but nice) Staff is friendly (some basic Spanish will help you if you). It IS noisy (bar on rooftop stays open quite late), so if you’re a light sleeper, bring earplugs and you will be fine!

There is a lot to like about the place and a few things not to like; the room was excellent and the staff friendly but English was not spoken. We were on the 6th floor and the night we stayed they had a special event on the rooftop terrace above our room so the DJ's music boom boomed until 1:00AM. There are several sex shops and strip clubs in the area but we felt safe and there were no incidents. The strip club next door was still going strong at 3:00AM when we our taxi picked us up to take us to the airport. If I were to stay here again I would request a room on a lower floor.

A great stay in a beautiful city!
Front desk personnel were very helpful. No wifi in first room and they moved me to a lovely suite where the wifi was excellent. Comfortable bed, hot shower, and a fabulous breakfast included at their rooftop restaurant. Location in the heart of the historic district was perfect.

Excellent place. I stayed separate occasions. Clean, spacious, well kept facility. Minor issue was limited communication due to language barrier. Most staffs have limited or no language skill. Breakfast can be better.

Hotel is next to a sex shop/stripper joint. Area looked unsafe at night, but maybe not. Desk clerk was very nice but could not speak English--listing said English was spoken. Room was spacious with a kitchenette and a small dining area. Bed was comfortable and sheets and towels were clean. On the negative: the ceilings were quite low and the room seemed dark and oppressive. After plugging our computer in (we used a proper adapter) something blew and a light bulb began blinking like a strobe light. The curtain fell off the track when opening it. But the main thing we could not accept was that the wifi went in and out-- it was very poor. We needed wifi for our work. We had booked for 4 nights but we left after one.

The room was very spacious and well appointed. There were a few maintenance and cleaning issues, but only minor. The staff were helpful, pleasant and efficient. Situated between a Sex Shop and a Strip Club it is not the most salubrious of areas, but this didn't affect my stay.

Convenient location and very helpful stuff
The hotel is very well placed and although the staff didn't speak English really they were very helpful. My only complaint really is that the housekeeping leaves a bit to be desired. There were some days where I left to do not disturb and my room wasn't cleaned that day which is fine. The days that it should have been cleaned I noticed that the floors were not vacuumed. Overall look good stay

The hotel was fine and clean. Nothing bad but nothing great. My real problem was when I went to check out and they check my room. I used a small hand towel to wipe off some suave from a burger I got upstairs. They where upset and said they couldn’t clean it. They wanted to charge me. Big picture… how do they wash their towels and sheets then?!!! If sauce is a problem. Disgusting

The staff was very nice and accommodating. We arrived a few hours before check-in, but they let us check into our room early. Unfortunately, the heater wasn't working during our stay but we notified the staff of the issue and they responded promptly. They also helped us book a ride to the airport for early in the morning and packed us a breakfast to take with us.

Extra large rooms are a nice feature of this hotel. Staff is wonderful, and located next to the market. There is a gentlemens club around the corner on the main floor which is unique, but im sure some people would appreciate it.

quirky and cute
A small boutique hotel right in the melting pot of tourists and locals, sandwiched on a street between the Starbucks, eye doctors buildings and night clubs with sex club signs in windows. as a single person I had no problems and streets easy to navigate. It is nice to have a kitchenette, but note it is not a furnished kitchen to cook in only to reheat your takeout meals.

The hotel was located centrally, clean, and well kept. I would recommend the hotel and stay there again! However, I arranged for transportation from the airport to the hotel (through the hotel) but when I exited customs, the driver wasn’t where I was to meet him. Long story short, do not accept “help” from anyone who approaches you while you are waiting for an arranged transfer. Have the hotel number as a contact in your phone before you go, and call the hotel directly to find out if there is a problem with your ride. I accepted “help” from someone who flashed a badge and said he was from airport information services. Basically, I paid over $450 to get to the hotel because I fell for his scam. Thankfully that is all that was lost and I made it to the hotel safely and with all of my belongings. Not blaming the hotel at all...just a warning to not speak to anyone at the airport if you are not familiar with the context in Chile/Latin America.

A pleasure to greet you and we appreciate your recommendation for future guests with the issue of transport from the airport, unfortunately there are people who profit from this service and take advantage of foreigners, unfortunately it escapes our hands as a Hotel, but with this comment it helps us For every foreigner who arrives in Chilean lands.
