“A hidden gem .”
The accommodation set on a hill with great view, was very comfortable, quiet, and breakfast was great. A great area to explore and a walk or short uber ride to the restaurant/town area of Vina del Mar . The friendly host Francesco advised us daily on what to do in the area , how to use the public transport and on safety. Thanks for a wonderful stay Francesco. I would definitely recommend and if back in the area would stay again.

“Awesome staff , cosy , quiet at night good brekkie - had a fried egg as well! Wunderbar”
From the very start before booking Franciso was really helpful and responsive in helping with my queries and allocating a room which met my needs . The quietness at night. Breakfast was adequate Incredible views of the city from the hostel dining room. Relaxed outdoor terrace . Lovely welcoming chilled out relaxed staff who speak Spanish , German , and English. Awesome decor in some of the areas of the property . Period style . I only spent a night here . I wish I’d spent more time here but I had a very limited time to see all the places I wanted to explore on holiday . Das Reisen kost’t Geld, Doch sieht man die Welt. Wanderlust.

It's really a special place! Close to the beach, but very cosy. With a brilliant view of the city from the restaurant. Romantic and with a spirit of the house with a history
