Hotel Angamos

“Good, but could be better”

The property is old and you can see that, especially in the bathroom - regardless of how well you clean it, old deposits and damage is visible. Towels should be replaced fir new ones, as you can see they're aged. I'm not 100% sure, but there either was no card payment possible or it was charged ext… more

The property is old and you can see that, especially in the bathroom - regardless of how well you clean it, old deposits and damage is visible. Towels should be replaced fir new ones, as you can see they're aged. I'm not 100% sure, but there either was no card payment possible or it was charged extra for payment by card, so if you're planning on paying this way, make sure you ask before. The location is pretty good. The neighbourhood around feels pretty safe and quiet. It's within 10 minutes walk to metro and 30 min walk to strict city centre. If you decide to walk, you'll stumble on some nice street art. There are few shops, restaurants and take-aways, close by. Staff are really friendly and nice; the cleanig was done to high standard. The bed was comfortable and Wi-Fi was of good quality and speed. We did not have all the cash needed for payment and we were not forced to pay up front, which was quite nice.

“Cheap and cheerful”

If you want a room of your own with a private bathroom and you are on a tight budget then Hotel Angamos is great. The staff were lovely and were patient with my fumbling Spanish. It's family-run and only the son speaks some English. But hey, it's better than my Spanish. It's in a great location, it… more

If you want a room of your own with a private bathroom and you are on a tight budget then Hotel Angamos is great. The staff were lovely and were patient with my fumbling Spanish. It's family-run and only the son speaks some English. But hey, it's better than my Spanish. It's in a great location, it's clean and it's basic. I don't require anything else and it was lovely for me as a solo traveller. I was lucky in my room allocation because it was downstairs and had good wifi access. Other residents had to come and sit in the lounge area to get access. Breakfast is also basic, but it comes free with the room, so no complaints from me. When I told them I was a vegetarian ('soy vegetariana' is one of my limited Spanish phrases) they gave me extra cheese and held off on the salami. The coffee is instant, so I preferred to get tea. There are plenty of restaurants around as well as convenience stores and supermarkets. They were fine with me bringing in a pizza to my room for dinner. They let me put it in the fridge and have the leftovers for breakfast (even microwaving it for me). It's within easy walking distance of public transport and San Cristobál hill. If you want luxury, this isn't the place for you. But if all you want is a basic, clean bed, room and bathroom then this is fine. I really liked it.

“Very basic hotel”

Yes it is a very basic hotel, as it has no heating nor it looks fancy. For a reasonable price, the location is very good. It has hot water and the blankets keep you warm at night anyways. I gave it a higher rating because of the owner family. They were very nice and helpful and the younger guy can … more
