Good ocean place for short stay, great restaurant
Pros:

VERY close to the beach, just outside of the main city. Didn't east breakfast, just the boxes - these were very tasty and practical. Possibility to make tea or coffee 24h.
VERY good restaurant - we ate the dinner there and it was literally the best food we ate during 3 weeks in Chile. If you stay there - definitely go to the restaurant.

Cons:

The hotel is a bit worn down - its okay now but in a year it will require a renovation. Especially the bathroom would need refreshing - I appreciate wood in rooms, but as a shower floor it is simply not hygienic, and the shower faucet was broken. It worked - but should be refreshed.
The walls are paper thin and you can hear everything. We stayed for just one night so it wasn't a big deal though.

Grande potenziale, ma necessita di miglioramento
Pros:

La vista sull’oceano è incredibile, soprattutto al tramonto. L’idea di avere un hotel sostenibile e attento alla connessione con la natura è molto bella. La colazione è buonissima, di qualità (non a buffet, ma preparata dal personale del’hotel) e il personale molto cordiale.

Cons:

La struttura ha evidenti esigenze di manutenzione. Essendo interamente in legno e affacciandosi sul mare, il legno sta marcendo in vari punti per via dell’aria salmastra. Inoltre abbiamo soggiornato in questo hotel in un giorno di pioggia: le loro docce sono a cielo aperto e quindi senza soffitto, ma nel nostro caso pioveva mentre ci lavavamo; in alcune aree dell’hotel entrava l’acqua dal soffitto. Inoltre, avremmo dovuto soggiornare per due notti, ma una delle due è stata cancellata perché l’hotel è rimasto senza luce e senza servizi base a causa del maltempo. La cancellazione è avvenuta gratuitamente, ma trovare un hotel last minute ad Arica è stato molto difficile e ci ha causato qualche disagio.

Molto bello ma rumoroso
Pros:

La struttura è molto interessante, situata in una posizione privilegiata, apparentemente silenziosa

Cons:

Purtroppo si sentono i rumori e le chiacchiere degli altri ospiti. Inoltre dalle 4 alle 5 di mattina non è stato possibile dormire a causa di una forte musica che probabilmente proveniva dal parcheggio

Demasiado caro para lo que es
Pros:

La vista, solo eso

Cons:

Sucio, las sábanas, el baño se salía el agua, y se acumulaba hasta casi rebalsar, no hacen la habitación después de las 12pm, sin desayuno buffet, y poca variedad del desayuno que te sirven, poca o nula cordialidad del personal que te atiende, el precio es demasiado en relación a la atención que te dan
