Can't fault Chilli Hostel - hot showers, good breakfast, dinner included (including a drink or two), helpful staff, 5 min walk to the subway, daily housekeeping. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Great! Breakfast is awesome. Dinner is awesome. Considering you get two meals its really cheap! Nice, friendly and helpful staff. Unspoilt from unneccesary rules etc. Quiet at night, meaning not the kind of hostel where people come home at 4am screaming and trampling, but lots of possibilities to party (Bellavista is near). 2 spanish schools directly nearby. For me it was one of the best places I've ever been.

very nice hostel. Free dinner was great. Lockers could use some adaptions as they weren't really lockers with proper locks. Very clean and centrally located.

Chilli/Aji Hostel is great! Very few hostels offer breakfast and dinner. The hostel has a great community feeling to it. It\'s perfect for a solo traveler.

Excellent hostel, The free dinners were a great way to meet people and the breakfast was good too. Really close to a metro station so really easy to get to with all your luggage and to explore Santiago too! Busy hostel so lots of people to meet, but not so noisy that you can't sleep. A way to imporove would be lockers in the dorms, but other than that everything was great :)

The hostel had a great atmosphere. They sent an email saying all the rooms had lockers but when I got there mine didn't. Beds were comfy and the free dinner was great.

The free food is really nice, because it is easy to meet people. However, it was two times vegetarian, but the amount and quality was ok. Also one shot or glass of wine is included The staff is really helpful and are mostly travellers who work there for a couple of months. They also invite you to go out with them. The double room was ok, there were just some red stains in the bed sheets.

An excellent hostel. The best value hostel I found in 6 weeks in Chile. The free dinners are great for meeting other travellers and the breakfast is much better than most. Highly recommend.

The hostel gave a great impression of the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and other people staying there. It was an additional benefit to have two meals a day (from Mon to Thur). It was great to have someone be able to understand my English (well, Australian accent). Thank you all for a very memorable stay in Santiago.

Good value for money. Free dinner on the first day was a good surprise! Breakfast is poorer than in other hostels. Very good location, at 5 mins walk from one of the main underground stations, in a good area. Rooms are ok, not too crammed. Internet not in all hostel, but in the common areas it is working fine. I would stay there again.

I love Aji aka Chilli it's truly a home away from home. Superior staff, helpful and very accommodating, owners have great attitude which is reflective of staff they hire. Comfortable beds and common room and very clean. My standard for every other hostel in the future.
