The apartment was lovely and the best accommodations I have had in 5 weeks in Tres Valles. Nils was extremely communicative.

Some helpful hints for future guests: Valle Nevado now has a real mini-market. Low on protein, high on junk food, but you can pick up something you forgot in Santiago. Laundry is a bit pricey (about $9 US per load), but at least you can wash and dry your clothes, which you can't in the hotels.

The building is ski out. When the snow is light, like during our stay, it is not ski-in -- however the blue shuttle vans will take you and your equipment home and save you the 4 minute hike from the hotels.

WiFi is available in the lobby of the Puerto del Sol, which serves hot soup and pastries at 17:00 every day.
