サンチャゴでスキー旅行の宿
Pros:

場所がとても良く、歩いていける範囲にキレイなストリートやマーケット。観光にはとても良い。レンタカーでのアクセスや、送迎はアクセスする道路が狭くて少し不便かもしれない。
すぐ近くに夜11時まで開いてるスーパーマーケットもある。

フロント、ロビー、レストランはいい感じ。

部屋に水濡れがあったり、電源コンセントが壊れている時も３０分以内に直しに来てくれました。

私たちはスキーを持っていましたがLobiフロアで預かってくれます。

Cons:

合計で３泊、２回違う部屋に泊まりました。
部屋は狭く、低いフロアでは朝の４時までストリートで騒ぐ声が大きくて眠れません。道路を通る車の音もすごいです。私も、友人も睡眠薬が必要でした。

また、何故かシャワーはとても水圧が低く、快適とは言えません。隣の洗面台のタップからは勢いよく水が出るのに不思議です。
