Location could not be more perfect and is nicely located by a fanincular if you aren’t feeling doing the stairs. |It is basic rooms but clean. Very dated wallpaper, bedding but super comfortable. Hot showers are only till midday (which is fine as it’s so hot here anyway) and the breakfast is good. We loved it here and would...

This hotel is in a good location and excellent value. Best part was the host who was friendly and went out of her way to make us feel welcome and help when we needed it. Would recommend to anyone staying in Valparaiso. About a 20 minute...
