트라베시아 B&B

Buen servicio

excelente ubicaciòn, atenciòn, limpieza, desayuno, silencioso y agradable hotel.

We "discovered" this place online and were impressed with the reviews. Travesia did not disappoint! It is an old 2-story 7-room connected row house located in the heart of Santiago. It has been nicely restored but has kept much of the charm of an old residence. No elevator, no air conditioning, squeaky stairs no screens but our room opened onto a small balcony and a breeze made our stay pleasant even on a hot February (summer in Chile!) evening. The host, Margarita is a very helpful bilingual joy to be around. Breakfast was simple but tasty. A thoroughly enjoyable experience if you want a taste of local life. Expect to be treated well but not pampered.

Nos fue espectacular, nos encantó la ciudad y la atención de Cristian y Marisol fue muy acogedora. Nos esperaron a la llegada, Cristian nos indicó las atracciones de la ciudad cuidadosamente y nos organizó el desayuno ya que partiamos muy tempraeno. Marisol muy atenta cada mañana. El lugar es 100% recomendable, lo volvería a elegir!

Delightful Travesia B&B is located on a hillside above central Valparaiso on a short two-block street with minimal traffic. Several restaurants are a 5-minute walk away. As a writer-photographer, Simon at reception was friendly & amicable, offering great locations with maps and pamphlets for DIY self-guided tours. Breakfast was included - a nice selection of cereals, fruits, breads, ham, cheese, eggs cooked to order, plus superb coffee and teas. The dining room was small but intimate, next to a grand open living room with easy chairs and an old-style 45 rpm record Wurlitzer jukebox no less! A 100 year-old, 3-story house, perhaps a small mansion from days gone by, it features private suites, plus bunkrooms for those on a budget. Beds were comfortable with nice linens. The carpets in the reception area which were a tad old and faded. No carpets covered the mahogany wood plank floors in the bedroom, fine for me as less chance for dust mites and allergies. A minor quibble: the two bedside night table lights - one had a broken bulb, the other had a broken light socket. With no air-conditioning, the room was initially hot when I arrived, but by nightfall, breezes coming off the ocean had cooled the room down after I opened the windows. In summary, as a budget traveller, this place was perfect for me, with a spacious room and good amenities. I will gladly come back here again on my next trip. Cheers, Frederic B Montreal, Canada
