Amazing staff - gave us a private room for the price of dorm. Great breakfast, clean rooms and bathrooms and a really homely feeling. Great value for money and just a great hostel in general.

The staff is really friendly, the place has a home-like environment and the breakfast is pretty good. It was a bit noisy in our room because it was downstairs, but it was not a problem for us. Good location if your're going to any event at O'Higgins Park.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice place with some character, convientely located to Metro. Good atmosphere at breakfast and public areas. Stairs makes awful creaking so hard to be considerate if others are asleep. Could do with another bathroom. Overall though it is to be recommended. Best I found of 4 hostels I stayed in Santiago.

We booked 3 nights but ended up staying a few more. Comfy, clean and the staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. Good Metro links and although it was a little out of the downtown area it was still walkable, it took about 20mins or so, but it gave us the opportunity to explore Barrio Brazil. Check out Pepperone for excellent empanadas nearby to Plaza Brazil. Breakfast was great too!

Even if I stayed just for one night I enjoyed my stay and will definitely come back. The staff is superfriendly and helpful, the breakfast is rich and delicious and the rooms are nice and have lockers. The whole place have charme and is in a nice, central area, so I can definitely recommend it! It just may be hard to find if you do not look for the small signs at the door ;)

Great little hostel with friendly staff. Dorm room was a bit small but comfy beds. Good breakfast with eggs. Close to the centropuerto bus from the airport and close to the metro line.

Hey there! Thank you for your feedback. We are going to renovate the entire building as soon as the season ends up, (on May) so you will be surprised next time you come. Mi casa es tu casa Pablo Don Santiago Manager

The great character of this hostel will certainly ensure you will overlook any of the minor imperfections. The staff are great, right the first email asking if they could help us plan our stay before we arrived. The breakfast is great. Only tip: avoid the double room as it's on the ground floor and the window opens on to the courtyard so your room fills with cigarette smoke and noise if people are out there. For any Australian travellers, they had vegemite when we were there!

Awesome, quirky little hostel with super friendly staff and the best breakfast in South America!! Loved the decor in all of the rooms and the relaxed feel about the place. It was great for meeting other people because it's so small and the staff interact with other travellers too - they are very welcoming, helpful and it does feel like you're staying in their home not a hostel! A fantastic find and would definitely return.
