Wow! We can't recommend this place enough, as soon as we walked in we felt at home, the owner is so so friendly and made us feel so welcome. We speak very basic Spanish and she was very patient to let us practice and we had some lovely conversations. The rooms were spotless, and they were cleaned every day we were there, and the beds were super comfy. The breakfast was the best we've had in any hotel in South America (coffee, cereal, juice, bread, yoghurts, waffles, egg).

The hostel has a fully-equipped shared kitchen which guests are welcome to use. Other facilities include a pleasant backyard.

The hostel is located in a tranquil area right next to a grocery store. Gustavo Le Paige museum is a 5-minute walk away. Calama Airport is approximately a 1-hour drive away. Shuttle services can be arranged for an extra fee.

The Hostel is at an excellent location just a few minutes of the dusty main road for tourists. The beds are very comfortable, the showers and toilets clean, the breakfast with pancakes, eggs. bread, fresh fruit etc made by Carol is delicious. There are clean towels every day. I met some lovely people during my stay and a special thanks goes out to Rodrigo, who organises all the tours and has the answer to all the questions regarding them. literally everything that can be done can be booked with him. i also booked my Uyuni tour with him. For that, Rodrigo booked me onto an excellent agency with a very skilled and lovely guide called Martin. The tour was very well organised, the food was plenty, delicious and healthy and the people I was put in a jeep with were lovely. The sights were just amazing, the nature truly stunning. I am writing this because this was all very important to me and I would have loved to be reassured by another positive review. Rodrigo himself was incredibly helpful and even looked after me and offered to help even after the tour had ended in Uyuni - he truly went above and beyond. He always available for even the simplest questions and incredibly flexible with changing dates and times (sorry, Rodrigo! 😅). He was 100% invested in me having a good time, never pushed a tour on me, even advised me not to do certain tours because there were sights I would see on the tour to Uyuni anyway - which I truly appreciated. Overall, I had an excellent time here.

Such a lovely social vibe! It’s the sort of hostel that you’re so comfortable in you actually don’t want to leave. Nayira is such a brilliant warm host, an absolute pro! Facilities are great, place is so clean, beds are comfy, breakfast is lovely and WiFi works throughout the hostel. We were supposed to stay for 2 nights, ended up staying for 4. Bed was made and room cleaned everyday we were there. Would absolutely recommend 10/10

    Located about 15min walk from the main street (with all of the agencies, shops and most restaurants), in a calm area. We felt very safe there and you can watch stars. The owner and his brother are very helpful and nice! You can use a common kitchen to prepare meals and there are 2 shops 3 minutes from the hostel.

    Super clean hostel. It was my first stay in a hostel while solo travelling and I was impressed about the cleanliness and quiet rules within the property. Cecilia is lovely and very helpful. Such a great place to stay if you’d like to make the most of it from your trip because it’s in a great location and the quiet rules after midnight helps you get enough sleep. Highly recommend this place!

    Friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable bed in good sized dormitory. Pretty good kitchen although some guests don't consider others so washing up can get left and one person was stealing drinks from the fridges on more than one occasion. Obviously that's the fault of the guest not the fault of the pwners. Great location. Hostel and camping available. Beautiful kitty cat!

    The property is very clean, the staff are so lovely and welcoming. The place itself is very nice and cosy. I stayed in a four bed mixed. My first time in a hostel so I was worried however it was perfect! I would highly recommend to stay. It’s quiet, it has 3 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a rooftop, swimming pool. I hired a car from the airport and parked it on the main road outside hostel, very very safe! Cecilia is so lovely, she works very hard all day! There is lots of seating around the hostel to chill on.

    No doubt that’s the best hostel I’ve ever been. The dorms are super comfy and safe, the bathrooms are mostly very clean, plus you have all the facilities, services and amenities you might need, including kitchen, bike renting, swimming pool, hammocks, boarding games, good music, homemade dinner & drink for only 5000 pesos. But the very special things of this place are the vibes and the people (the owner, employees, volunteers and guests) - laid back, fun, helpful and caring. “El que viaja solo, nunca está solo” 💜
