Excellent location, helpful staff
Hostel staff are very friendly and accommodating. The location is excellent, next to the bohemian district and also close to Cerro Christobol. The metro station, intersecting both line 1 and 5 is within a couple of minutes of walking distance. We reached a few hours before the official checkin time, but we were given the room that was very helpful. The only problem we had was because of the heavy rain on the second day, there was some water leak from the ceiling in our room. But we were shifted to another room almost immediately after we reported.

Merced 88 was a great hostel. Excellent service from staff, place was clean with great showers. Has large wooden lockers in rooms that you provide your own lock for (I'd imagine you have some on your luggage. Plenty of space in dorm rooms. Conveniently located near a subway station so you can catch the Metro to the hostel from the airport (well you take the public bus to the nearest metro station first, but a lot cheaper than catching a taxi). Basic free buffet breakfast included (no bacon, sausages or things like that) but you get two boiled eggs, bread, cereal, juice, fruit. Next to a park with the best of the fountains/sculptures of Santiago out front. Not far from a large supermarket (go left out front door, stay on Merced, walk for about 6 or 7 minutes). Across the park and the Terminator 2 drain river thing behind, about a ten minute walk from the hostel is the Funicular which takes you up the mountain to the cable cars and religious character statues.

I really enjoyed my stay, the staff was excellent. Juan and another gentlemen (I can’t remember his name at the moment) were really nice to meet and accompany for a little while at my stay. Thanks for all the hard work !

Supportive & helpful front desk staff
Front desk staff gave lots of resourceful information prior to arrival. They were responsive and helpful. On arrival, it was a little challenge to identify the hostel as there was no sign and the door was closed. They explained the reason and also advised on the safety when going out. They supported how to find PCR testing center. Nathan & Mila speak good English and respond quickly whenever I sent them a message. I was very thankful for their excellent service.

4/10 Fair

Now is not the time to stay here. It is completely defaced, I got tear gassed from the protest out of my room, it is so loud as it’s right in the middle of the revolution... This place had no disregard for its guest as I kept being told it’s fine when other places I dined at always offered transportation. Very cute room but the floors were so dirty I had to wash my feet and then tip toe to bed so I didn’t have dirty feet in the bed (should’ve wore slippers). Just not a good stay besides the kind front desk people.

Great value for the money. The kind of place you stay when you are young & idealistic & broke. Not necessarily for traveling retired grandparents.

Stay here ...its fab!!
I read a couple of negative reviews and nearly didn't stay here. But I did stay and the staff here are what makes this place AMAZING!!! I have never experienced such amazing service.They went out of their way to advise and help me on many occasions. They are also keen to see Guests are happy and socialising with each other. To this end they have various themed evenings....on tuesday evening it was free Sangria and music. Wed was a party atmosphere but I was too tired to stay and wednesday was free Pisco Sours and I missed unfortunately to go to airport. The dorm rooms were clean, comfortable beds ,spacious and with lockers and bench space....what more do you need! The bathroom was cleaned often in the day and shower fantastic! I cant say enough for this place, its simply great! Oh and a cheap bus from airport to Los Heroes then Metro to nearest station Baquedano. Only 50m from Merced88.

6/10 Good

PROS: Friendly staff, clean and spacious room. A little surprised the private bathroom is not attached to the room itself, but across the hallway. Good breakfast. CONS: The NOISE! Our room was on the 2nd floor in the back. We could not get any sleep at all due to the constant traffic noise/siren and people yelling/talking outside on the sidewalk (can hear them as if they are in the room itself). This happened all throughout the night. The hostel provides free ear plugs at the reception, we made the mistake of not picking up one of these for the 1 night that we stayed. Windows/balcony were old, so I guess that's why the noise just travels right through!

The staff were friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were exceptionally clean for a hostel! The beds were very comfortable and it’s a plus that there’s daily servicing and they make the beds. Any breakfast that offers eggs is alright with me. Centrally located near many restaurants and markets. I’d stay here again.

Very Likely the Best Hostel in the cenral Santiago
A refreshing experience due to the obvious care and concern of the friendly staff. You will feel like a welcome and appreciated guest here. The interior was new and freshly done. Location was excellent. Had an excellent stay there. The rooms were reasonably priced. I had a large private room, with a separate but private new bathroom. They also have a very large, homey, comfortable and welcoming lounge room with nice comfy chairs and couches and a large screen TV. This place is way above average for a hostel and it is clear that the owners care about your experience. One word of caution the rooms at the end are on a major street and will be quite noisy. Another good thing is that you can walk to the famous Bella Vista bar and restaurant nightlife area. There is also an underground parking garage nearby if you have a car.
