The hostel La Casona is known for its hospitality and for its owner, Sra. Mary Sandoval. Many of the bigger tour and travel agencies use her services, so do we...

Sra. Mary Sandoval is the owner and cook in this tidy little hostal, which is situated close to the junction Cerro Castillo - Puerto Ing. Ibañez. The house can take upto twelve guests and has got three shared bathrooms. The hostel is connected to the rural telephone network, so from there one could call in an emergency. Additionally, Sra. Mary has a VHF Radio installed, so it is easy to call to Cerro Castillo. Besides her work as a host Sra. Mary is always busy, taking care of her Alpacas, or making some new wollen hats with her never quiet hands.

A bit of smalltalk in the kitchen with or without drinking mate - time to exchange news of the region and the world.
