I stayed in April, for a week and found the hostel perfect for me. It is rough around the edges, but the garden is great for evening drinking and chatting with other guests. The bedroom was okay, but fine, as little time was spent in it! The other guests here (for me) were brilliant and so much fun. A good... More

Hostal de Sammy has everything you could want from a hostel for a very nice price! After seven months of traveling, this is the place we have felt most at home. Super fast internet, enough computers which was free, and the price includes a great breakfast with delicious banana pancakes, brown bread, fruit, juice and coffee/tea, not bad for a... More

Stayed here for three nights and found it ok. The facilities are basic and the rooms are pretty cold so do not expect the Ritz. It could definitely do with a few quid spent on the rooms and maybe adding extra bathrooms. On the plus side the location is fine. There is free internet and a big breakfast, they also... More

Hostel de Sammy is such a great place to stay. My friends and I arrived in Chile and found the hostel a great place to crash for a week while we found an apartment. The pancake breakfast each morning was a welcome treat. The beds were comfy with plenty of blankets (and I'm sure you could request more if you... More

This Hostel give you a lot for less! They have big clean beds (120cm) in 4, 6 and 8 bed dorms. Big lockers with every bed. Breakfast was included and had the best banana pancakes along with eggs, homemade bread and coffee. Internet was free and super fast. The hostel is located close to the UNI of Santiago with lots...

Although I didn't read the other reviews here before staying at Sammy's, I wonder if they stayed in the same place that I was in. Although it's true that the building was in need of some repairs, I saw the owner was in the process of making repairs to some of the rooms and bathrooms. This in addition to finding... More

After 6months of travelling in South America, this is definitely one ofthe greatest disapointments. We were promised so much through the brochure and website and none of it came through. On arrival we had to wait over and hour past the check in time, when we enquired why, they said that the room was being aired....this made us a bit... More

Hostel de Sammy has the overall ambience of a somewhat crowded college house. Not a college dorm, but the kind of house people might rent and share during college. There's fast internet access, a nice big game room, and occasional free pasta meals (on Mondays when I was there). Unfortunately the heating, level of cleanliness, and privacy all leave quite...

It´s a hostel, so obviously we weren´t expecting the Ritz. Neither were we expecting the filth and decrepitude that we were met with on arrival. Nor we were expecting to be barked at by the owner or made to sign to a list of rules that made us feel like naughty children (one of these rules was ´thou shalt not... More
