Perfect location for exploring the historic centre of Santiago ( within walking distance) There is no doubt that this is a noisy and busy part of town but fascinating to watch life go by from 24 floors up and the view is unforgettable, We used the Metro to get to other quieter areas like the Barrio Italia ( lovely restaurants, cafes and markets in leafy streets).
The tourist information office at the nearby Gabriella Mistral Arts Centre ( GAM) is so helpful and the cafe there is lovely too. Cafes and shop’s directly under the apartment too. Highly recommend for a short stay and everything we needed for a comfortable stay was there.
