Born in New York and raised part of my life in Chile, and very picky! ! This is the ideal location if you are visiting Santiago. Close to everything! What I call uptown. 3 blocks from The Ritz Carlton, Starbucks, phone company, if you need to buy a chip for your phone, banks, cafes, cultural center, if you want to see a good show. METRO (subway system that is modern and clean). All in a short walk! But most of all... the warmth of the people is what makes the place. Alexandra is easygoing, and a wonderful and caring host! I highly recommend her home!
