La situación
La ubicación,si lo que quieres es disfrutar del descanso y desconectar es el lugar ideal .vista privilegiada y habiente acogedor.
El no haber estado más tiempo
The bed was comfy and the place was nice.
The breakfast is not good! There is only an instant coffee pack and a big bag of crappy white bread with some cheese and jam and yogurt. We went out and bought our own eggs to cook with no butter in really old bad pan. There was no oil or butter. more importantly, it seems that the IVA tax that we didn’t have to pay at any other place in Chile we had to pay here. I asked her about it but she avoided the question. It is doubly suspicious that you can only pay with cash or transfer. Her demeanor was also off. At first I thought it was because she had a sick relative and that was why she behaved the way she did but reading the other comments it seems that her behavior is often a bit off and aggressive. If you do stay there, make sure you have the right phone number on your account because she tried to cancel our reservation two hours before we were to check in because I didn’t answer a text the night before.
Buena cama. Las instrucciones de llegada muy buenas. Vero encima todo el tiempo. Buen dato de Uber.
La habitación más cara ofrecía “vista al mar” y era una vista a puros techos de lata y agua estancada. El baño quedaba abajo, Super incómodo eso y la habitación arriba en un segundo piso muy caluroso. Cero privacidad, se escuchaba todo de las otras piezas. La oferta desayuno incluido es un caza bobos. La dueña deja jamones y queso 2 yogures en el refri. El día anterior, lo cual es muy distinto a los hostales que entregan el real servicio de desayuno para optimizar tiempo. El barrio era feo y con poca oferta para comprar cosas. Hay que subir un tramo bien empinado a unos 15/20 minutos del centro.
Lage okay, etwas ausserhalb. Nette Restaurants und kl. Supermärkte (um das Frühstück aufzubessern) in unmittelbarer Nähe.
Self-Service-Frühstück, das am Vorabend in den Kühlschrank gestellt wurde. Leider nur wenige Scheiben; Wurst und Käse wurden auf einen Teller gelegt, Café und Marmelade gab es erst auf mehrmalige Bitten. Badezimmer erschreckend eng, keine Duschartikel. Entgegen der Info auf Booking wurde keine Kreditkarte akzeptiert. Das führte zu erheblichen Diskussionen mit der Vermieterin und Kosten bei Bargeldabhebung.
Me alojé en Palafito Bordemar, un lugar mágico, muy acogedor y bien ubicado. La habitación con baño privado estuvo muy bien al igual que el desayuno. Lo recomiendo 100%
Lo tranquila que fue nuestra estadía. Además, Vero es muy amable y preocupada, atenta a todas las necesidades que uno pueda requerir.
Queda en una bajada/subida inclinada para llegar al centro de la ciudad o al hospedaje, pero nada que no se pueda lograr con buen estado físico o auto/transporte público.
Nice view, close to good restaurants. Cozy place, nice terrace, comfortable bed and kitchen with all the facilities for cooking. Good location.
Small bathroom without a proper door, so it was a bit awkward to be in the bathroom while your partner was in the bedroom. Sink in the bedroom, no inside the bathroom. Breakfast could be a bit better for the price. Also, including a hand towel and shower gel would improve the experience more.
Great place with a lovely terrace, seagulls as company when tide is high, 15' walking to get to Castro and pick one of the routes of magic Chiloé. Vero, the owner, is helpful and friendly and for sure will make you feel at home.
It was a delight to stay in this Palafito. Right from the initial whatsapp received from Vero asking about my arrival plans. She left everything ready for me to simply walk into my lovely room on arrival in the early evening, plus reserved me a table at Terraza 1326, an amazing restaurant 3 doors down from the Palafito which I was able to just walk to after an 8 hour bus journey to Castro. In the end my plans changed and I decided to stay an extra night and Vero was able to accomodate my changes with no issues. Sleeping with the curtains open and being woken by the sun in the morning as it shines on the Palafitos and lights up the bay was one of the highlights of my trip.
I think the breakfast could have been a bit more substantial.
The interior of the hostel is designed very tastefully, picking up traditional elements of the Island. Furniture and facilities are pretty new and clean, the kitchen is inviting.
You can't pay with card
The room was beautiful, well-decorated, and cozy. The fact of being by the sea with a nice view of the canal and bird watching was certainly a nice plus to the place.
We were quite disappointed about the breakfast, as one would have expected a nicer meal when the breakfast was included in the accommodation price. It was a bit of a lacking point to take into consideration as room for improvement.
The house was so quaint and comfortable. The check in experience was so easy, and my host gave great recommendations. It was very fun to be staying in a palafito in Castro! She even let me borrow a raincoat, because I didn't have one.
Super comfortable bed Nice open place with tables, sofas & nice outside decking - tho doesn’t get evening sun
My small simple room was upstairs, shared bathroom was downstairs near the kitchen Breakfast was really mean & not worth having Worst was that host sent messages to everyone else in the hostel to tell me to leave the money (cash)in a drawer by the entrance rather than direct with me - which was embarrassing as it sounded as if she didn’t trust me & yet trusted everyone else knowing where I was leaving the money - but became funny when different people continued to give me messages - 5 in total!One message would have done,,meeting me at the hostel would have done, contacting me direct would have been perfect! She said it was because I didn’t speak very good Spanish. Also I messaged her many times via booking.com using Google translate but never got any replies. I also seemed to be charged more than the others for staying - $65 for just me, 1 person, downstairs bathroom, otherwise $50 -$55 for 2 people
the palifito was charming and small but had everything needed for a perfect stay.artistic, colorful lots of relaxing spots and a great quiet location of other palifitos. 3 restaurants within 5 minute walk. our favorite was the last on the right el argul.....gourmet amazing meals.
The house is very pretty and everything clean! Communication was uncomplicated and the hosts helped us with every question we had. We could use the kitchen. Just down the hill from the city and therefore very peaceful.
The room was very comfortable, and the view great. Only 6 rooms, so not too many other guests using the shared spaces.
The climb to get to the center was a bit much. May not be suitable for everyone.
We had a wonderful time at this place. The view on the Terrasse was amazing and the communication with Vero was super easy and welcoming. We prolonged our stay because we liked it so much :) we would definitely recommend this place!
