Happy with Hostal America

The staff at Hostal America were all very friendly and helpful. Although I had to wait a few hours for my room as I arrived early morning, I was able to have breakfast and sit in the living room. The location was close to the train and downtown and a nice walk. The only think that I might say was a little disappointing was the hot water, it kept going cold but I am not sure if it was my not being able to adjust the taps correctly, but it did come on intermittently. Aside from that minor issue it is a nice, clean, comfortable property.

Cheap stay in Santiago

Good cheap place near Plaza de Armas. The are is very run down though, with much better areas around Bellavista and Santa Lucia. The shower was awful and basically unusable. The water was cold and the shower head was broken. Breakfast was free but very basic with toast and cereal. Only powdered milk was provided.

Never again

혼자 찾아가기가 어렵습니다. 숙소에서 터미널까지 1km 정도를 가기위해 새벽에 택시를 이용했는데 숙소에서 자체적인 기사분을 택시라고 하면서 6000 CLP를 받더라구요. 절대 숙소에서 연결해주는 택시 이용하지 마세요.

Buena atención. Siendo un hostal tiene limitaciones comprensibles en la comodidad de las habitaciones, que se compensan en gran medida con la amabilidad y disposición de servicio de todos sus empleados. Otro punto a destacar es la limpieza de las instalaciones y habitaciones. El ambiente en general muy agradable y familiar.

Nice and friendly hotel. Location wrong online :S

Nice hotel very close to central Santiago. The only downside was that the location of the hotel was displayed incorrectly on google maps, trivago and the Expedia website. Considering that my reason for picking the hotel was "is close to the bus station because I've just had a 18 hour bus ride which was delayed by 3 hours and my bank card isn't working" this was not ideal! Other than that everything was good. The address provided in the email was correct (compañía de Jesús rather than compañía). WiFi broke at around midnight but was fixed by the morning (I didn't ask anyone to fix anything)

perfect budget accommodation – it made a good base for me to come back to after whole days outside exploring the city, or when I just need a place to rest after and before flights
