I came here for a few nights during the low season in April. The property has 3 houses: the owners live in 1, and the other 2 are for guests. Well, I had an entire house to myself for a night! When the log-burning heater was on, it was comfortable, but when that fire died down the house was freeeeeezing!... More

The hostel on the whole was very nice - particularly the shared kitchen - but our room (a triple with private bathroom on the second floor) was rather cramped and smelled of mold. The hot water in the bathroom sink did not work without the shower being activated as well; the water in the shower got cold and hot intermittently.

Really sad to leave this place. Despite not speaking much English (our Spanish is embryonic) the owner made us really feel at home. We arrived after the overnight bus from Santiago and she gave us a coffee and made an effort to get the room really quickly for us. We were in the small house at the back, in the... More

The hostal location is excellent, right in the centre of town. You can literally walk to all the restaurants, bars, supermarket and tour companies in 10mins. Rooms exceptionally clean and get made up for you everyday (except Sundays) although they can be quite cold at night. It's not the most sociable of hostals but the breakfast area and kitchen are...

This was a very comfortable and convenient place to stay. It was one block from the Main Street and several grocery stores. We stayed in the outside cabin with 3 bedroom and had the room with the orivate bath . There was a shared kitchen with all supplies and a shared common room. We used the kitchen as we found... More

The owner of this hostel is the sweetest person we have met in Chili. We arrived early in the morning with an overnight bus ride from Santiago. Our room wasn't ready, by she offered a clean room for us to relax and shower. She even offered us breakfast and much needed coffee after a long night bus ride. The kitchen... More

This lovely hostel is run by an older woman who is the owner. It is a great, peaceful place to rest between all the activities in Pucon. Located just 1 block from the bus station and 2 blocks from the city center make the location idea. Even though it is right in the city it is on a very quiet... More

Stayed for a few nights at this hostel, was greeted warmly upon early arrival - room was ready quickly. Stayed in a private room w/ bathroom - was perfectly fine. The best thing about this hostel is really Ema and the staff - she is warm, kind and incredibly kind. She let us shower and have use of the bathroom... More
