The place is literally steps away from the liveliest bars and restaurants in Santiago. So you can walk everywhere from there. LIke others have commented though - you have to be careful what you ask for. If you are a light sleeper, this isn't the place for you as the music can be heard until breakfast time. Of course, if you don't get home until breakfast time, that's not an issue. The place has lots of space and open areas so you have lots of room. That means it doesn't heat up quickly when you have to use the space heaters, but it does mean you can spread stuff out. He's a great host and answered all our questions thorughout our stay. Check in and out was a breeze. Would love to stay there again.
