Hostel was great -- hosts were amazing and super helpful giving advice for what to do on the island and how bets to get there! Breakfast was perfect, bed was comfy, location is ideal. Can drop bags off before check-in and pick them up after check-out.
ChileI liked the community! The hostel was a great place to meet and chill with the other guests. It was close to the main square as well. Camilla did a fantastic job recommending interesting things to do in the local area. It was a memorable time!
South AfricaCamilla was a perfect host. She was helpful with making arrangements for day trips. The tour of the penguin colony she recommended was wonderful and very reasonably priced. The other travelers were very nice, and the hostel was very clean.
ChileCamilla is the best! Very welcoming host and gave a lot of great advice about Chiloe and Traveling Chile!

United States of AmericaCamila is amazing! The place is like a second home i really really liked every day a spend there
BoliviaThis is one of the best hostel I’ve been to! They really thought through the hostel before opening it up. They have lots of little things that make it awesome: toilet paper, towel and soap in the bathrooms, big bins in the kitchen to put your food in, and nice common area where you can chill and watch tv. The best part of the hostel is the staff though. Camila is so lovely and so helpful. She gave me great recommendations on what to do and made my stay in Castro fantastic :) Recommending this hostel to everyone!
ChileCamila and the staff are just amazing!! very lovely and friendly. You really feel like being at home with your best friends. Best place ever

NetherlandsCamilla, la duena! She makes her place very welcoming. She sets rules and makes sure its done and that makes the hostel very comfortable. Its well managed. I like it that way, there is order. Very social atmosphere. Camilla is the best host ever, very genuine!
