Hostel Boutique Merced 88

Real good hostal. We stayed in the private room with public bathroom. The room has been designed real good, compact. It has a tiny balcony which was good. The batrooms were clean but they are so very public so do not expect privacy at all. Breakfast was good. Common areas was good. And they have amazing terrace! What I recommend is terrace could be open on sundays too, since there is almost everything is closed in sundays in Santiago. Special thanks to Katharina❤️ lovely and informetive.

Found this to be quite a good hostel. It gives a free buffet style breakfast (simple I mean there isn't bacon or anything, although you can take two boiled eggs), but cereal, juice, bread, that type of thing. Bed in dorm room was comfortable and you get a wooden locker you can put daypack, laptop and other more valuable parts of your luggage into, as long as you've bought a padlock (which you likely have numerous on your backpack anyway). Staff were friendly, the building seems very secure, showers were very good. Neighbourhood is close to a subway station (only a few minutes walk) which I used when coming from the airport (you catch a cheap public bus to a subway station first). Also next to a park with a big nautical water feature statue, and a short stroll to museums, art galleries and the old buildings area of town. The Funicular is about ten minutes walk away if you're planning on going up there, which links to the cable car at the top of the mountain. A supermarket is five minutes or so down Merced if you walk to the left once you're out the door. Highly recommend. The streets around are a bit noisy with buses but I doubt you'll avoid that anywhere in Santiago.

Despite a 24-hour reception and ample space, my experience was very disappointing. Booking for 4 days, I requested only a seat for myself and my backpack upon a night arrival at ~ 2 AM. However, contrary to common hostel rules allowing morning-hour arrivers to quietly relax in social areas before their booked bed is available, I was told that, per their "rules”, staying without payment for the unreserved night hours wasn't allowed. So they astonishingly preferred to kick me back in the cold night on the street. I found shelter in a nearby hostel and went back to check in on the next day. But they meanwhile decided to cancel my reservation as they didn’t like the discussion that night. I think they consider their unusual and intransparent night arrival “rule” (for what reason ever) as the higher good than feeling responsible and welcoming for travelers with cheaper transportation schedules.

Muy buen hostal, limpio y comodo, Buenos espacios y un cowork muy amplio para trabajar tranquilamente. Además tiene gimnasio cosa que no es comun en hostales. Arriba tiene una terraza con vistas a la ciudad y a la virgen del cerro San Cristobal. Lo recomiendo 100%

Reparem q não é possível fazer avaliação no Google. Eles são péssimos. Não tem banheiro nos quartos. Vc toma banho, enquanto outras pessoas estão usando a privada. O banheiro é cheio de mofo no teto. Eles tentaram esconder com tinta preta mas é tão pesado q já partiu a tinta. Reclamei dessa falta de informação no booking e me tornei pessoa non grata. Uma hóspede se queixou de ter sido mal tratada por outra e daí eles colocaram a culpa em mim e me mandaram sair. A hóspede foi lá e explicou q não era eu e sim outra, mas eu segui sendo expulsa. Disseram q devolveriam minhas diárias mas não devolveram. Disseram pro bookin q me comportei mal, isso é, questionei a falta de informação sobre o banheiro. O café da manhã é limitado, só pode 1 fruta, 2 fatias de queijo e 1 iogurte. Há mts outras opções melhores em Santiago e com gnt honesta.

Eu amei tudo! É simples. Mas me atendeu muito bem. Fiquei 4 dias, em um quarto para 4 mulheres. A limpeza diária era feita e as moças que cuidavam da limpeza eram super caprichosas. Banheiros limpos TODOS OS DIAS, não tive nada de surpresa negativa. O café da manhã é simples, mas bem completo e servido. Possui pães, frutas, bolo tradicional, cereal, iogurte, frios e a possibilidade de ovos. Inclui tambem suco, café ou chá! A louca do café, cada hóspede lava o que sujou, o que eu achei o máximo porque não deixam a pia/cozinha suja. Eu fui muuuuitooooo bem atendida pelo Gaston, pela Maria Clara, pela Cate e pelo Gustavo! Me ajudaram muito com o transfer e com meu PESSIMO portunhol. Os quartos não possuem ar condicionado, mas mesmo no calor, tinha bastante ventilação. Quarto arejado. O único ponto de melhoria que eu voto para fazerem, é colocar a cortina de privacidade nas beliches. De resto, TUDO ÓTIMO! Quero voltar mais vezes.
