Excellent place to spend a weekend, our room with bathroom were clean and comfortable. The breakfast is good, they also have a share kitchen if you want to prepare your own meals.

The courtyard is gorgeous! It's decorated with white lights and Chilian style decor. There is a fire pit, so we enjoyed a nice campfire before bed!... More

Very charming hostel with a lovely and spacious room and a really good bed. Beautiful common area where we spent our evenings. The downside to this hostel was the owner's attitude: We booked on the phone some four or five days ahead directly with the owner.
