Jordi asked us for our ETA in advance and was super responsive via mail. He waited for us in the lobby and took us to the apartment, where he showed us around and gave us a lot of helpful advice about when and where to go on the weekend. We felt very welcome. The bottle of wine as a welcome gift was just the jewel in the crown.

The apartment was nice and clean and we found everything we needed, even basic cooking ingredients like salt and oil. There was the kind of background noise from the outside you'd expect from a downtown apartment in Santiago but overall, the building itself was quiet and we felt at home.

We felt quite safe in the neighbourhood, which is in comfortable walking distance to Cerro Sta Lucia and other sights. There is a small grocery store across the street.

We can highly recommend staying at Jordis apartment!

If you arrive in Santiago by bus, take the red Metro line to Santa Lucia station. Depending on traffic, it is even quicker than a taxi and considerably cheaper.
