This hotel is a great location. I took the bus from the airport to Estación central and walked to the hotel. The hotel is also walkable to terminal San Borja, which is the bus terminal to Valparaiso. I visited from the USA, and the front desk attendant spoke very good English which was a great surprise. The breakfast was incredible with tons of options. The room was small, but everything was clean and worked great. I arrived early and left my bags with the front desk and he kept them safe. The building is safe and secure. The price was excellent. I would recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Great staff the Internet was not on all the time kept gerting kicked off. Same breakfast every single day. They would cook the scrambled eggs sit for a few hours rubbery and in clumps instead of throwing it away they would add fresh eggs on top of the old. Stale pastry and rolls every day yuck.Spanish stations only exept bbc news in english. A lot of bakery around for sure they could get fresh baked pastry. Wished they had Netflix. During the day male front fesk clerk very nice.

Two male front desk clerks very friendly. From the USA television movies all in spanish. I rely on my phone constantly getting kicked off the Internet. The breakfast was horrible.Cold coffee scrambled eggs sitting for a couple of hours chunks of rubber. Kiwi Sour. sausage cold and overcooked. Pastry not fresh the tiny rolls were edible to eat. Its a nice hotel I think they should cater to the people who live in the USA, Canada. UK and elsewhere. The only program I found in English was the BBC news.It would be nice if they had netflix that really would solve there problem.

So the hotel is a bit of a walk from downtown. The staff were great and the breakfast was good with many options. We were warned many times regarding our personal safety in regards to theft of phones from our outstretched hands or backpacks off our back. The area was very busy with street vendors whom come out around 10am and stay until around 8pm so they congested the sidewalks. But, the price of the stay reflects the area the hotel is in and I couldn’t argue with the price. Just some things to be aware of when booking.

We were aware of the area being a little sketchy. But we chose this location because of the close proximity to the central bus station. The rating is for the future guests for reference. The major problem is the toilette. Initially the flushing water is too little to flush even a sheet of paper. We reported to the front desk and they fixed it. But it was still barely enough water to flush. Also we had to wait for the elevator for long time almost all the time... I don't think there was ever a point when both were in operation. At one point in time, many of the guests (ourselves in cluded) become so frustrated that they ended up taking the stairs. But we're happy with the hotel staff.

The staff at the hotel was phenomenal & friendly! The room was super clean & spacious, and very well appointed - and very reasonably priced. The area is not the greatest in the city - with very busy streets & caution to be very vigilant of thieves stealing phones, necklaces, purses/bags, etc as warned by staff and cab drivers. Transportation options are great - subway, bus route, taxis & Uber all available, and some decent shopping very close by.

This property was perfectly fine for us. Super close to bus station which we needed, markets/ street vendors w/everything you want to buy. Just follow basic travel rules. Busy pedestrian boulevard/lower income neighborhood, so keep your valuables close & inaccessible to pickpockets (like everywhere else) Samuel (days) & Claudio (nites) @ the front desk were friendly and helpful 24/7!! Gracias gentleman!

Excellent option regarding its price. Very clean and okay service. Breakfast is good (could have more options but considering its price it is ok). The area is very awful, dirty and can be dangerous at night. However, with caution you can walk easily to the metro station or bus terminal. I would stay again here
