Guest Reviews
- HYOJIN (10/5): - 호스트분이 친절하시고 고양이와 멍멍이를 보는 것만으로 괜히 힐링됐네요 그닥 없어요
- Thomas (9/5): Grata estancia con una anfitriona excepcional - Marcela, quien nos recibió, es un 7. Muy simpatica, nos ayudó incluso a coser una parte de un abrigo. Un amor de persona!
El lugar es tranquilo y spacioso, con buen WiFi y estacionamiento cerrado. La presión del agua. Pero eso en un tema en todo San Pedro.
- Jordi (8/5): Bona ubicació; tracte personal inmillorable. - La propietària, escel.lent
- Adriano Alves Pereira (9/5): - Ubicación, limpieza, amabilidad del anfitrión Podría haber sal, aceite, como el básico para cocinar algo.
- Mario (4/5): Good location - Location wise is very good Host is very nice but all the time around as it is her home. The room was very cool and very limited.
- Stefy (10/5): Maravilloso todo - El excelente trato y preocupación de los dueños hermoso lugar cómodo y el lugar es cercano a todo, superó mis expectativas. Nada
- Marta (6/5): - La ubicación es perfecta tranquilo pero a cinco minutos andando del centro y Marcela es encantadora muy amable y dispuesta a ayudar Muebles viejos y baño insuficiente para 4 adultos
- Gonzalo (10/5): Exelente - las instalaciones, el baño, y la dueña es muy amable. Todo excelente!
- Cris Mottin (10/5): -
- danadelatorre (8/5): -
- Cristina (10/5): Super! - Struttura molto bella, spaziosa e con tutti i comforts necessari. Posizione ottima, a 5 min a piedi dal centro di San Pedro. Stupendo il giardino esterno con divanetti e tavolini per rilassarsi. Marcela, la proprietaria, fantastica! Gentile e premurosa, viene incontro ad ogni esigenza. A rendere tutto ancora più accogliente e familiare la gattina Serafina e il cane Pippo! Niente
- Celia (10/5): Perfecto - Ubicado a menos de 5 minutos de la calle caracoles. Apartamento sencillo y grande con todo lo necesario para tu estancia. Marcela es un encanto y nos sentimos muy acogidas. La terraza es muy bonita y se comparte con los demás huéspedes. Nada
- anderson (10/5): Quando voltar ao Atacama já tenho onde ficar. - Ótima localização, local aconchegante e anfitriã extremamente simpática e prestativa, nos sentimos em casa. Nada
- Johana (10/5): -
- Reinoso (10/5): Lindo, cómodo, lejos - El lugar precioso y con una amable atención La ubicación es algo apartada, pero con comercio local cercano
- Triana (10/5): - excelente ubicación el baño no tenia ventana de ventilador, el extractor no cumplía con la funcion completa de un baño
- Nicole (10/5): -
- Janet (7/5): - Host was lovely really helpful and friendly, accomodation satisfactory, good location for the town and we had a good stay. Noisy at night, dogs barking and loud music, facilities a bit tired but ok for the price
- Niels (8/5): Rustig verblijf op top locatie! - Perfecte locatie, 3 minuten lopen vanaf de busterminal van San Pedro de Atacama, en 3 minuten lopen naar de hoofdstraat. Net buiten de hoofdstraat, maar alle belangrijke plekken in San Pedro zijn prima te voet te bereiken. Aardig personeel, ruim verblijf en gezellige, comfortabele gemeenschappelijke tuin. de WiFi verbinding was niet zo stabiel.
- Vanessa (10/5): - Ótimo local para estar em família . O custo um pouco alto .
- luis (10/5): -
- Rickie (8/5): -
- Alfonso (10/5): Excelente servicio - Anfitriona súper amable, muy cómodas las camas y todo limpio
Gracias
- Al (7/5): - Very nice and friendly staff, quiet location with the possibility to cook your own meals. The internet connection was very poor, so much so that websites took minutes to load, and there were ants in the room.
- Arlenne (8/5): Apartamento tranquilo para descansar - Me gustó que tenía dos dormitorios, y Lorena su anfitriona una señora muy amable y dispuesta a ayudar en todo momento. Las instalaciones se ven desgastadas y les falta un poco de mantenimiento Su ubicación aunque no está tan alejada de calle Caracol, no es tan bonita a su alrededor. Sin embargo siempre nos sentimos seguros y los tours pasaban a recogernos a nuestra estancia.
- Dirk (6/5): - Payment via card reader didn’t work. Payment link provided instead for downpayment and final payment only in Spanish and worked only after several attempts.
- Joaquín (10/5): Atención, ubicacion y comodidad perfectos - Nuestra experiencia fue perfecta. La anfitriona, Lorena, estuvo muy pendiente y nos ayudó con todo lo que necesitamos. La habitación estaba muy limpia y nos hacían limpieza diaria, gratis. La anfitriona también tuvo mucha flexibilidad con la hora del check in y check out, lo cual fue perfecto para nosotros. La ubicación también es perfecta, solo a 4 minutos caminando de calle Caracoles.
Estamos muy felices, además de que nos dieron un regalito por navidad 😊.
- Delfosse (3/5): -
- Robyn (10/5): We had an absolutely amazing time would highly recommend the stay and would come back again in a heart beat! Thank you s - Friendly owner. Private yard. Felt very safe and was close to everything. Nothing bad to say about it. Air conditioning would have been nice at night time but that’s all.
- Cristina (8/5): -
- Silvia Patricia (10/5): - Nos hemos sentido muy acogidos por la anfitriona, quien ha estado atenta a cualquier necesidad y nos ha hecho sentir como en casa. Hemos podido cocinar y la ubicación es excelente, muy cerca a pie de la calle principal a la vez que muy tranquilo. Sin duda lo recomendamos!
- katarzyna (6/5): -
- Ángela Cortés Silva (10/5): - Lorena, es muy atenta y esta pendiente a resolver las dudas
El apartamento tiene todo lo necesario para una estadía confortable
Muy cerca de la calle caracoles, por lo que facilita la movilidad
- Marie (5/5): Will not recommend it for this price, the value was wrong, it was sold as a 2 bedrooms when it was only 1 bedroom - The bathroom was ok My bed was in the kitchen without curtain, the place was described as 2 bedrooms, only 1 pillow
Few dishes in the kitchen and they were dirty
No hot water in the kitchen
No much light in my “room/kitchen”
Stains like blood on the wall and on the sheets in the other room
The woman didn’t speak any english
It smelled cat pee behind our door and all the yard furniture were dirty
- Bruno Eduardo (9/5): -
- Pat (6/5): - La ubicación era muy buena, la persona que nos atendió era muy amable. La limpieza de la habitación podría mejorar bastante, el baño no estaba limpio y el horno no funcionaba en la cocina.
- Marcelo (9/5): Custo benefício ótimo! - Gostei de tudo, os pontos fortes foram as instalações, atenção dos proprietários e funcionários e localização. Internet e chuveiro funcionam perfeitamente. Indico esta acomodação!
- Benjamin (10/5): -
- Days (10/5): - La atencion fue muy amable y se entrego flexibilidad a la hora de realizar el check-in
- Tania (8/5): Very good - Clean and tidy. Very good communication from host Nothing to mention
- Silvana (9/5): - el lugar tal cual las fotos, muy limpio, las camas comodas, agua caliente muy bien. En general todo bien!. Lorena sumamente amable y servicial, pendiente de que todo estuviera bien, ella realmente un encanto. Volveria! Lo unico 'raro' es que al baño se ingresaba solo a traves de la habitacion con cama de 2 plazas. Para nosotros no fue un problema, pero quizas a otros grupos no les quede tan cómodo.
- Luis (9/5): Alojamiento en Tambo - Creo que el baño principalmente Que no nos pudimos conectar a la red de wifi.
- Giordana (9/5): -
- Youngji (7/5): Good -
- Kevin (1/5): RUN - DO NOT BOOK - DO NOT BOOK - horrible! Nothing, horrible place. I’m my partner and I could have died from a carbon monoxide leak - had to leave the establishment in the middle of the night. They are refusing to provide a refund and our now ignoring booking.com representatives and my emails
- Greta (9/5): Lovely and comfortable - Very comfortable, clean and well located. The staff is lovely, we felt like home. Some of us got sick and they took care of us like a family, always very kind.
The graden is nice and cozy to chill during the day.
- Helen (8/5): Very good -
- Marcia (9/5): Fantastic - It was great Señora Lorena was amazing and went above and beyond
- Ruth (8/5): Amazing place with a wonderful host - The hotel was few minutes from the main street of san pedro. The host was amazing, and the room was clean and spacious The wifi was pretty weak but it is part of being in the desert
- Fabiola (10/5): Fabi - Mini departamento independiente Sin comentarios
- David (9/5): Superb - Location.
Owner very helpful and friendly. N/A
- Bret (8/5): Very good -
- Menachem (10/5): Very good and very pleasant stay - Was very clean, beautiful garden beautiful place to stay and drink coffee outside the room and the host was kind and give a lot of guidance what to do in this place I like everything
- Nhauyen (9/5): Superb - The place was clean. We only had four people, so the 6 beds were more than enough. The beds had crisp and clean sheets. Each room had dressers, hangers and luggage racks for our clothes and belongings. The kitchen has a stove, cooking and eating utensils and a fridge and freezer. We bought granola, cereal, eggs, yogurt and ice cream from a grocery market within waking distance to have for breakfast, as some of the tours we signed up for left early in the morning before any restaurant opens.
The bathroom was very spacious. It is located within the bedroom that has the queen sized bed. Some people might find that inconvenient, as the people in the other bedroom would have to walk into that bedroom to get to the bathroom. However, we were fine with that setup.
The location is a short walk to the main street, Caracoles, so it's easy to find a restaurant, do souvenir shopping or do comparison shopping between the numerous tour agencies.
The hostel staff was very helpful. Although they didn't speak English and my Spanish is very limited, we were able to communicate using Google Translate. Lorena stayed up past 11 p.m. on Christmas Eve to check us in, as we arrived on a late flight. Lorena did our laundry at a reasonable price. Lorena kindly made herself available at 6 a.m. to help call a taxi for us in the event our reserved airport transfer didn't come through and she was so considerate in lending us a battery operated light to use to make ourselves visible while waiting for our airport transfer in the early morning before the sunrise. The place does not have air conditioner. However, with the windows open, the high ceilings of the bedrooms, and a breeze, it was cool enough that we had a sound sleep every night when we stayed in December. Sometimes, we didn't have warm/ hot water, especially after someone just took a hot shower. Then, we would have to wait a while for hot water.
- Mark (8/5): Nice quiet place in good location with all you need for 3 to 5 days - Location , peaceful, staff helpful, request were attended to , communicated good and timely, kitchen had all you needed, it was rustic but what do you expect in the atacama desert, premises securer with nice out door seating relaxing areas in shade If you are after perfection alot but for me it was good , i would stop there again
- Cha (7/5): Good value - Clean,simple place but really comfortable and quiet. With a relaxing outdoor areas which you can see stars during dark. It’s located near (10mins walk) to town centre where everything is located. The host Marcela is very hands-on and friendly.
- Richard (9/5): An oasis to come back to after a day exploring. - An oasis after spending the days exploring. Property in great location from bus station, close to town but far enough away from central area with bars. Bed firm, units with enough equipment supplied for basic meal preparation. The host Marcela is very helpful. N/A
- Miyerla (10/5): Totally recommended - Everything. It is very close to the main road. Lorena and Marcela, they are great. Quiet and clean place Need maintenance, but it is understandable because the rest is amazing
- Dana (8/5): Very good - Great care from the hostess, she was lovely and kind. the place was always clean and well taken care of. Got really great sleeps because of how quiet the area was.
