Pros:

Equipe maravilhosa, as meninas que trabalham lá são uns amores e sempre estão dispostas para ajudar! A cama é confortável e grande e o lugar muito silencioso. Café da manhã atende bem. Tem água quente para fazer café e chá o dia todo.

Cons:

O único ponto seria a localização, pois fica 1km do centro, não é nem pela distância, mas para andar a pé pega uma rua onde passam muitos carros e levantam MUITA poeira. Incomoda um pouco.

A perfect calm, cool oasis to return to each evening! Th
Pros:

Immensely friendly and helpful staff. They operate like a 5 star hotel, everywhere is immaculate! Washing was returned the same day, bedding and towels regularly changed, rooms serviced everyday. Breakfast was delicious, fresh fruits, yogurts etc and fab selection of cheeses and meats. I discovered the round chocolate biscuits with a morning coffee, naughty but nice! Truly a lovely place to base yourself to explore the Atacama desert!

Cons:

Nothing!

Un hôtel calme à San Pedro de Atacama
Pros:

La chambre était très propre, le personnel très gentil, le buffet du petit-déjeuner mieux qu'attendu et il y a un parking pour la voiture.

Cons:

La piscine était fermée (et ce n'était pas indiqué sur Booking. Certes nous étions en "automne" mais vu la température pendant la journée, elle aurait pu être ouverte. Les salles de bain pourraient être rafraichies. Il y a un frigo mis à disposition des clients mais il est coupé la nuit.
