The beds are comfortable and there are curtains, the kitchen is well equipped, the volunteering staff were nice, and the cat Chuchoca is cute. There are some card games available, and free tea and coffee.

“Decent place, would recommend and stay again if I returned”
I really like this place, well located, friendly staff, clean, didn't actually end up cooking whilst there but kitchen did seem well equipped, and tea / coffee available, when I first arrived there was also real coffee and not just instant which was a very welcome bonus, not sure if that's a permanent thing but was very nice. I booked the same place when I returned to Castro for another night a little later on without even considering another. Beds have curtains, bathrooms decent with nice showers, pressure and temperature, nice communal space, has lockers available

“Nice place to stay in Castro”
The manager is really helpful and kind! Kitchen is well equipped and everything is clean. I really liked the individual outlets and reading lamps for every bunk bed in the dorm rooms. There are plenty of bathrooms and the showers are consistently hot.

Great and big kitchen with everthing you need. Privacy in the bedrooms thanks to the curtains, possibility to charge your phone even from the high bunk.

the beds had curtains so one was able to get a bit of privacy and shut out the light when in bed. The common area was comfy and nice to be in

Great little hostel, with nice common area. Friendly staff and volunteers, and as the dorm I booked was taken, they gave me a private room, so very happy with this (most places would just decline your stay or ask you to pay a higher price). Location good and fairly central, just a moments walk from the coast and the Castro church

“The hostel where you feel like at home!”
Probably one of my best stay in Chile! You feel immediately like at home, in a big beautiful house with everything you need: full equipment kitchen and big and cozy living room. The location is perfect, few meters from a nice bakery, restaurants, cafe, bars, banks, supermarkets, well everything you need. Castro is also a nice city, cool vibe. Big up to the owner, she’s super friendly and welcoming, and all the volunteers. :) I miss already this place! I was supposed to stay 3/4 nights and I stayed there 8 nights. <3
