It is located in a incredible place. Nearby everything. Museums, nice bars and restaurants. Side by side subway station in front of PUC university. You can just wake to the Funicular, Neruda`s house, Bellas artes and providencia. The room is a small bijou. Well furnished, nice bed, with many cafes oustide. Very safe place. The wifi is not so good.... More

Pros: Very nice furnished apt. Bed and pillows were fantastic. Everything is new and modern in an IKEA sort of way. Cons: Wifi never worked. We spoke with the manager about this twice and both times she said she would talk to someone about it and be right back but she never returned. They seem to be aware of this... More

Right in the heart of the city, near the University Catholica and its metro station, these apartments are neat and clean and excellent for both short and long stay. Very well maintained, well furnished and tastefully laid out, these are very secure and very friendly. You can come down the lifts to the most exiting cafes of the city, which... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mela Blu Apartments. If we return to Santiago, Chile, we would definitely stay with them. They are GREAT, close to most of the attractions, economical (very important for most people), at a stone's throw from the Metro (Subway) Station Universidad De Catolica, surrounded by several restaurants, next to a corner store and within 10...

The location of the Mela Blu appartments is very convenient, downtown Santiago, and several restaurants are in the same court or just around the corner. This also means though that it's quite noisy, even during weekdays, sometimes it was hard to sleep. The appartment itself gave us a wonderful home for our stay in Santiago. The bed is very comfortable,... More

After leaving to ship, we got a free night at the ritz Carlton hotel, which was lovely. Next day we transferred to Melo Blu hotel. A little hard to find as it is an apartment in a court yard of 5 or 6 terrific restaurants. Once we found it, we're greeted bu Wally at the desk of the building telling... More

These apartments are cheap, but very tacky. A pity, because the location is superb. Everything, from broken toilet seat to disintegrating curtains. The kitchen is very basic, with cutlery, crockery and a couple fo saucepans. It is certainly not fully equipped (went out and bought electric beater and mixing bowls). The other big issue is noise. As the apartments are... More

First I would like to say we really couldn't have found a better place for a long weekend. Relatively low price and smack in the middle of restaurants and bars. Mela Blu is situated in a tiny backyard off Lastarria with many restaurants on the ground level. Some noise from the restaurants will be heard in the evening so if... More

This place is great value and in a good spot as long as you don't mind the sound of the people from the restaurants below enjoying themselves (we didn't! No thumping music, just chitchat and occasional raucous laughter). The apartment we stayed in was decoratively a little tired and the fabric headboards could do with replacing but this didn't spoil... More
