A fun community centered place to stay and experience the beauty that is Arica.
Pros:

Right downtown, walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do. Breakfast was delightful and the staff was incredible.

Cons:

The parking is a bit inconvenient but understandably so as it’s downtown.

Lovely stay
Pros:

I've been very happy staying there. You're quite close to the centre of town, the rooms are simple but nice (though I imagine they might become a bit warm during the day in the summer.) WiFi was good.

And, most of all, the people were so so nice, very accommodating and friendly all of the time!
