Providencia Bed and Breakfast

Friendly and homely. Very easy to relax and enjoy your stay

La experiencia fue malisima,... primero consultamos por habitacion en primer piso, debido a que soy una persona con movilidad reducida y nos dijeron que no habia problema.. La primera decepcion fue que a duras penas tuve que subir una inmensa escala hasta el segundo píso La verdad es que mas que un hotel es una residencial u hostal, pero de hotel nada. El comedor es pequeñisimo, somos una familia de 4 personas y apenas cabíamos en la unica mesa que existia como comedor en una piesa de 3 x 3. El aviso indica que hay estacionamiento gratis, pero no especifica que no es en el mismo recinto, sino que en otro lugar (si cercano al "Hotel")

Excellent

We arrived to the airport late evening and wanted somewhere to rest in Santiago overnight before heading south. This B&B is very well located (lots of restaurants, shopping, and activity nearby), but is on a side street and is surprisingly quiet. The host, Ignacio, was wonderful, and really made us feel at home. The property is a bit old and the lodgings are spartan, but it's very homey and a terrific value for the price.

sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Team, hat alles super gepasst

Ignacio es muy amable y te ayuda en todo lo que puede. Ojo que no tiene ascensor.

The room was so small that I had to store my luggage in the shower. The door had a privacy screen in the form of a torn plaid sheet. The mattress was severely lumpy and I was ready to slide off unless I wedged myself against the wall. The window looks out on a battered bamboo screen. There were no hangers, no closet, no drawers, and there was one shelf. I really don’t appreciate spending money and my hard-earned vacation time camped in someone’s half a kitchen listening to them and their friends for hours on end (and if you’re going to do that, at least invite me…). I have stayed at B&Bs in almost 20 countries on 5 continents (including South America) and I don’t feel at all that I came here with unrealistic expectations of what a B&B should be; there needs to be at least some space and appropriation for guests. The house is about 1400 square feet for three family members, their cook, and six guest rooms, which gives you an idea of what it’s like. The guests are mostly family friends, including the Swiss guy that the B&B owner took to the airport to meet me for $30 ride to the B&B (by the way, offering a free bottle of wine upon arrival does not distract from the fact that the charged ride is almost double what an authorized airport taxi would cost). In other words, the B&B family has lots of friends coming and going who are “guests,” and fill in the odd “room” here and there with ordinary travelers like me expecting professional accommodation.

We enjoyed our stay at this b&b. The place was cute and tidy and the location was wonderful on a quiet little street in providencia. Our room was upstairs and in the gables of the building so you couldn't stand in all of it which made it feel a little cramped and hard to get out of bed on one side. Everything was very clean, the bathroom spotless and service was very accommodating! Yea and coffee on arrival and helpful as they called our last hotel out of town to request they look for my cell phone. Limited english spoken which was Not a problem for us with my limited Spanish.

Muy bien, super amables todos.

Muy bien recibida, buen desayuno, la gente del lugar te atiende super bien.
