I would like to start by saying that Chile was beautiful and Santiago was an amazing city. My friend and I had an amazing experience. Our amazing experience was due in large part to our accommodations. Francisco's apartment was exactly as advertised. Cozy, clean, modern and had great view. Located in Santiago Centro (downtown) it was central to everything. Steps from the subway and buses passed right outside the building. And about a 10 min walk to major shopping districts. Restaurants were all over and there is a great seafood market with several eaters inside just minutes down our street. We also had the pleasure of meeting Francisco and his mother. They were very pleasant and easy going. Francisco spoke English which made it even easier to communicate with him. We didn't need anything while we were there but Francisco was very accessible. The building staff was also very friendly. Thanks Francisco. This was a great stay I recommend it to everyone.
