Hostal de Sammy was started by a North American (me) and my best friend (Sammy the dog). The hostel is an affordable yet full-featured accommodation in downtown Santiago. The idea was to create a living environment that felt comfortable for travelers no matter where they were from. From the start, Sammy was set-up so that the traveler pays one price that includes everything the hostel has to offer without any hidden costs. A foreigner away from home myself, I basically found a big house and stuffed it with all the things that I thought people would enjoy. The hostel, spit between 3 floors of an old mansion, uses the entire first floor as common space. This includes the kitchen, dinning room, game room, computer room, living room as well as the back patio.
Game room amenities include a pool table, foosball, a PS2 (with its own gaming couch!), an 8-speaker sound system as well as a ping-pong table on the patio. The computer room has 5 computers (microphones and webcams on every computer) with free unlimited internet and free laser printing. In the living room we have a HUGE 61-inch TV, satellite, a DVD player, and over 150 movies loaded and ready to go on our media center. At the back of the house there's a great patio with a large built-in BBQ ready whenever you need it.WE DO FREE BREAKFAST RIGHT! When most other hostels say free breaky, what they really mean is that you're getting bread, coffee and tea. But this isn't really breakfast, is it? For breakfast we cook pancakes, usually with some type of fruit in them, scrambled eggs, and also give you toast with juice, coffee and tea. Now that's breakfast!Please Read This: You may actually be able to sleep here at night! Although we do want people to have fun while staying with us at Sammy's, in favor of those who wish to sleep at night, when it starts to get late (after 1AM) we prefer that the hostel becomes a little quieter. For this reason the back patio (which faces 2 of the larger dorms on the 2nd floor) is closed at 1AM. Also, at 3AM the game room (also located below 2 dorm rooms) is closed as well. You may still use the computers as well as the living room. There is no curfew so you may still come and go as you please but only ask that if you enter the hostel early in the morning that you are respectful of the guests that may be sleeping.
