The apartment is located at the heart of the Barrio Yungay, named a historically divine neighborhood. Only a few modern buildings interrupt this trip down memory lane through a neighborhood of large houses from the late nineteenth century with colorful facades along cobblestone streets.
The apartment has 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and a study, plus living & a dining room. There’s a kitchen, microwave and refrigerator, so you can cook your own meals. The building has a Laundromat. The apartment is on the 11th floor giving visitors an unobstructed view of the city with full privacy. Housekeeping is available upon request.
In just the stretch of one block you may find eclectic shops in old warehouses, restaurants and museums in large Victorian style homes, longtime residents sweeping their driveways, and hear the hum of patrons in one of its many taverns. Barrio Yungay is truly a mixture of history and people, all living together in one of Santiago’s oldest neighborhoods.
One block away from the apartment, is the Yungay Park, where the monument Roto Chileno stands. It’s a statue of a farmer in a plain shirt, rolled up pants and a rifle in hand – a tribute to the unknown soldier – valiant and patriotic – who is credited with the victory at the Battle of Yungay on January 20, 1839. Also a block away is the traditional Fuente Mardoqueo Restaurant, and charming Peluquería Francesa Restaurant. There are a lot of bars and restaurants, and you can be sure you will always find something fun and different to do.
Subway station Quinta Normal is just 5 blocks away.
