Paula was a very generous and thoughtful host! The apartment has a great view of the mountains with a nice balcony and grill, and it’s clean, comfortable, and functional. King size bed is comfy and couch is sleepable (we never actually used the pullout). It’s about a 2 minute walk from the slopes and 100 ft. from the little convenience store. A couple of easy things to plan for: no WiFi (buy an unlimited data plan), no bottle opener/cork screw (bring one), and no coffee maker (use instant or buy at the mountain). Also bring any food/alcohol you think you’ll want from Santiago because there are almost no options besides the hotel restaurants (which are fun, but obviously not where you’ll be 100% of the time). The ‘gym’ is just a stationary bike and an elliptical, but not an issue if you’re skiing every day. Parking is in an indoor garage accessed from the elevator right by the apartment door—easy and secure. The doormen are friendly and helpful—makes checking in/out easy.
Overall an awesome stay that I would highly recommend!
