Transiting acceptability…
Dated and tired. But comfortable enough to get a decent night’s sleep. A purposeful pool with basic sun-lounging furniture. No in-room tea/coffee making facilities. No milk available across the entire hotel after breakfast ( to try and make your own drink ). Dinner is limited to a toasted sandwich menu. Service is hit & miss. The longer, brown/ginger haired female on check in ( 10th Dec @ noon ) was unfriendly, unresponsive and ‘bored’. The guy in the afternoon was super attentive and responsive. He cared. Calama ‘is not safe’ to go exploring…

Chambre standard au 3e étage, pratique et correctement équipée ... l'ensemble mériterait un petit rafraîchissement. Déjeuner très varié, parking en sous-sol disponible.

Great place to stay!
We traveled with children and grandparents and everyone loved this hotel. The beds were very comfortable, the staff friendly, the shower had great pressure and hot water! Our favorite part was breakfast, the food was SO good and so many options. We wish we could have stayed longer!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. That said, the property isn't in the best condition, in general. Our first room didn't have hot water and the second room's air conditioning didn't work. The paint on the pool is peeling off. The bedding is cheap and not particularly clean. The showers are old.

solid business hotel
We got in around 1am so we just wanted to hit the sack. This is a solid hotel, similar to American business hotels. I'd say it's somewhere between Courtyard Marriott and a full Marriott. The breakfast offering was pretty typical for Chile.

Modern hotel with fantastic breakfast.
A little far from downtown... nothing interesting walkable.
Nice parking under building, but didn't see guard. Internet didn't reach our room. Pool not heated, unlike pool at same "chain" in Iquique. No food available for room service.

Good Business hotel
Good business standard hotel. Clean comfortable rooms and excellent breakfast. Only negative is its is a bit of a trek to the centre of the city and main shopping/restaurant areas if you are walking, not a problem if you are travelling by vehicle or taxi.
