I thought the staff was really helpful and all the evening activities made it easy to meet others. The roof top was amazing.

The location is really good, right in the center, close to everything. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. It's a good place to meet new people and to party. We were on a road trip, constantly traveling and changing locations, so by the evenings we were usually tired and all we wanted was to collapse to bed. Unfortunately this didn't fit the party/social profile of the hostel, so were struggling a bit with loud music and cheering people.

Clean hostel in great location. Rooms are nice ( stayed in the private and the dorms) However, the hostal is in a loud area and I couldn't sleep b/c of the street noise and stray dogs barking. Also, there are no fans in the room so it is unbearably hot.

Excellent location with lots of restaurants and cafes nearby and a metro station accross the road. It was also a good hostel to meet people, as there were many events (pasta night, karaoke etc).

Pros: -Great central location across the street from the metro and close to sights and restaurants. -Cool social atmosphere with weekly activities. -Helpful staff available 24/7. Cons: -No wi-fi. Wi-fi was down for the 3 nights we were there. -No central cooling or fans, so the rooms can get rather hot and stuffy. The hostel is on a fairly noisy street, so opening windows results in no sleep for a light sleeper. Bring earplugs. -No hot water for one of the days we were there.

I enjoyed my stay in Andes Hostel. The staff was really helpful, and the atmosphere helps you to met other people if you are willing to. The cleanliness was efficient in bedrooms and toilets, and the location is awesome for anyone who is planning to know the city by walking or taking the subway, but the problem is that the street is really noisy, even at night, and can be difficult to rest if you have trouble in sleeping. The heat in bedrooms was also a problem. Despite of that, I recommend!

Great hostel. The best thing about it it's the location, it's right in front of a metro station and pretty near to the main plaza.

good location, we stayed in another building because we booked a private and it was more like a small hotel room with a kitchen and tv. breakfast at the hostel was ok.

O hostel é ótimo, super bem localizado, não poderia ser melhor, é ótima, fica ao lado de uma estação de metrô. Eu fiquei nos apart, são de excelente qualidade. Quanto aos demais quartos não posso comentar. O café é servido sempre da mesma forma, porém com uma qualidade agradável, também de uma forma bem limpa. A equipe é super legal e atenciosa. O hostel também fornece um cronograma com bastante interatividade entre os hóspedes.

I went twice, arriving in Chile and before to leave. My first night was great but the 2nd was not so good. Main issue : the locstion is great, in a central neighborhood next to a metro station. But the strret is really noisy. On a thursday night, drunk people shouting and singing until late hours. And at 7:30 AM, cars already honking. Avoid rooms on street side !
