The Princesa Insolente Hostel Reviews

Loved my stay at the hostel. I was moved to the apartment across the street with an amazing view from the 9th floor balcony, large screen tv, equipped kitchen and thus had a private apartment for the same price. The barbecue that evening was wonderful, great food, terremotos and sangria, helpful staff, and fun people from around the globe.

Excellent experience! Go here and try to stay for their Thursday Asado (BBQ). Clean and comfortable. Staff was amazing!

Great atmosphere, helpful staff, good BBQ on thursdays and the best bed of a hostel. Ever.

This place leans hard to the hipster side, which means it's both stylish and clique-ish in both staff and clientelle. The communal spaces are pleasant, the dorm rooms a squeeze - perhaps the price paid for good mattresses. I nevertheless question the value/money somewhat, having paid 9500 for a 7-bed dorm where I had to dodge people to get to my things, get dressed, etc. The separate staff bedroom would be useful to open up to the clientelle; the peek-a-boo showers and toilets beg upgrades.

We booked an ensuite in the hostel. Got there was told its not available, but they will put us in the apartment across the street. Well we get there and of course the Internet does not work. They say its not their fault it's the company they get it from fault. Do they call and try to fix it, no! They also say we have the place to ourselves. Well, the next morning some guy walks into the apartment and scares us. He said that he thought it was empty, not! Horrible place.

A good hostel with the nicest staff and confortable beds. Still, the dormitory (at least the 5-beds one) gets too smelly in the mornings and they should have more bathrooms (only 2).

A really reliable, safe and clean hostel. The Barrio Brasil area of Santiago is not the best, but the metro is near so was not too much of a problem. The hostel was not as social as we had expected, with mainly non-English speaking people staying while we were. But a great value option.

Filthy, lack of follow through, taking advantage of guests to line their own pockets. My mattrrss pad and pillow were filthy. They must clean floors with dirty rags. Under beds filthy. Dish cloths were black. asked woman at front desk to help arrange tour to cajon de maipo..she said she will leave info at desk. Instead she passed it on to next person who did nothing too... Do not have them get you a taxi...I watched a member of the staff get a payoff while i was charged double of amount i paid to get there Bad

I had a wonderful stay at la princesa insolente. Excellent staff and atmosfere! Rooms are very comfortable and clean.

Nice hostel with cool people. It could do with some more hooks in the shower, and it would be nice if they recycled, but I would highly recommend staying here.

This hostel has great character and friendly atmosphere. We booked a six-bed dorm but it was actually a seven-bed dorm with one of our beds being more like a mattress on the floor... The staff were friendly and hosted a great barbecue but were not forthcomimg at ensuring everyone knew what was going on and letting people know the drinks and food were ready. We did get badly bitten by mosquitos at night, so be prepared to spray.

Lovely hostel with lovely staff in a lovely neighbourhood of Santiago. Would definitely recommend it. Great atmosphere, very helpful and fun staff and a great overall cleanliness.

A very good hostel that screams with character. Quite tasteful and full of energy.

A nice location if you are trying to find an apartment in Santiago. In walking distance (20-40 min) from university campuses and city centre.

The best hostel I've been in South America (brasil/argentina/chile) so far!!! huge and comfy matrasses, new, modern and though with a great charakter... well organized, good breakfast, great atmosphere!!! Totally recommend this place!

Best hostel ever!

Just stay here, everything was perfect, nothing to complain about. Details everywhere!

Great hostel! The staff is very helpful and friendly. Everything is great, the beds are extremely comfortable and everything is very clean. I didn't stay long but if I come back to Santiago, this will be where I will stay. It's perfect.

Best hostel i've ever done! Even if you are in 10 beds dorm you feel really comfy!

Very good place, staff very nice and helpfull, clean and friendly. If one day I return to Santiago for sure I will stay there again!
