We had a guaranteed booking with credit card through a well-known online hotel booking service. The booking was confirmed just before our scheduled arrival. However, when we got to the Keoken in Puerto Natales, it was closed and locked, curtains drawn. No answer to repeated phone calls. We spent some time standing on the street with the kind taxi driver, trying to decide what to do. The driver didn't speak English, and my Spanish is poor. We knocked on neighbors' doors, spoke with workers on the street, etc. No information about why the hotel was closed. Finally a passerby rescued us with a recommendation of a nearby accommodation, which had a vacancy. We felt very lucky, as we had been literally stranded on the street with our luggage. When the Keoken owner read our critique of How Was Your Check-in Experience (We couldn't check in!), he sent an email saying he never got the reservation request. We don't know who made the mistake, but the fact is that we were left at the mercy of kind strangers to save us from spending the night at the bus station.
