Thank you for keeping the hostel synced! very good location right around the corner from the main tourist areas. The landlady and the landlord were very helpful in choosing the tours and booking transportation to the calm airport. Use WhatsApp daily. Good internet connection, clean, pleasant, helpful staff. I am not speaking Spanish but they were very helpful in this regard. Hot showers are always available. Cooking amenities are available for free tea and coffee, as well as paid laundry services.

I've already planned to return to Alabama and will undoubtedly be at hostel synched once more when I return. While it's a simple hostel, it offers everything you need for a comfortable stay. I stayed in a single room. I had a wonderful night's sleep thanks to the wonderful pillow and mattress! It is a fantastic location, only a block from the major road. I only had one issue, one of which happened on a day when I woke up around 345 for the geyser tour and there was no water in the taps. It wasn't the end of the world, however, because it was only one morning when I realised I had to use a little of my drinking water to brush my teeth and wash my face. Chile's borders were closed while I was there owing to the coronavirus, so I decided to go home sooner. The proprietor was extremely accommodating and only charged me for the nights I remained. I already planned to return, and when I do, I'm undoubtedly staying at the same hostel once more. I do suggest that they do something about the wifi. Currently, it only functions in the common areas and not in the bedrooms. They claimed it was to ensure the peaceful in the sleeping area, but I do not take it. The bedrooms also must have wi-fi.

Very strongly recommended. We were immediately drawn to the hostel's efforts to be environmentally-friendly. Solar panels provide constant hot water, making it ideal for disposing of all the desert dust. There are no laundry facilities, however, a laundry shop across the street has a fair price. Breakfast is not included, but there is coffee and tea. Wifi is available in a lovely, little courtyard, but it was a bit patchy when everyone was using it. It's located just a block from Carecoles' main strip, and it was extremely quiet at night.

We had a great time here. We stayed in four-bed dorms. Excellent location for the hostel's main area of San Pedro. The room was quite large, with very much space between the bunks. Any valuables could be locked in lockers, which was appreciated. The communal space was excellent as well, and the kitchen was small but functional. There were no issues with lack of hot water, as long as the sun has enough time to heat the water, theres no issue. I also like the hostel's ecofriendly strategy. At night, the rooms are chilly. We've made a lot of progress in locating a location with a heater on our stretch, but it appears that a room heater will cause a much more costly location. 6 blankets, which were almost enough to keep you warm, were provided, so I really liked it. I slept peacefully under 2 of the blankets throughout the night. If you are not interested in cats, look elsewhere since there are a lot of cats in the hostel. The only real drawback of the hostel is the door locks. For a private room, having separate locking systems inside and out of the rooms didn't make sense for the dorms. The door would be left unlocked and half open unless we got up to lock it after their tour. I believe the dorms should simply have
