We had a lovely time in Santiago made better by our convenient and comfortable lodging. It was small but clean, and felt very safe with a 24 hour door man. We enjoyed the short walk to public transportation and the fun activity just outside the door in the evening. Christian was a gracious host and was very accommodating of our last minute changes. He also brought gifts and advice. Since we spoke Spanish we could communicate easily, he speaks English uncertainly. Highly recommended.
