Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

We stayed for 6 days and all the staff were exceptional; friendly and attentive. The rooms, common areas and bathrooms were kept super clean and the kitchen was well equipped when we needed to cook. The hostel is in a great and safe location with plenty of lovely restaurants and bars all around. It is also close to the metro and walking distance from Lastarria. We would gladly stay there again. Thank you to all the staff for their care.

Absolutely huge and lovely place. My female dorm was far from any noise course so I rested very well. There are several kitchens and U used the one that was never crowdy. Great location and good wifi. Clean bathroom and hot water Friendly staff. U can wait before check-in/after checkout in a very cosy area. So far best hostel I had during my south America trip.
