overall great stay, would stay here again

Wonderful hostel in a fabulous location! The place is clean, comfortable, and a really good value. The staff were friendly and responsive (thank you Christian, Nacho, and Malik!!). I would stay here again and would recommend Hostal Boutique Merced 88 to friends visiting Santiago.

Quero começar parabenizando quem fez as fotos do hostel — realmente, o fotógrafo fez um trabalho incrível, porque ao chegar a realidade é bem diferente. O prédio é histórico e isso por si só já tem seu charme, mas senti que falta bastante cuidado. No meu quarto, por exemplo, havia algo que parecia ter sido uma antiga fonte de água com dois bancos ao lado… completamente inesperado e um pouco estranho. O chão de várias áreas está corroído, com partes descascando e alguns itens visivelmente quebrados. Meu quarto era grande e com pé direito alto, porém sem ventilação adequada e com cheiro de mofo. O beliche também balançava muito — era preciso subir com bastante cuidado. Os banheiros estavam relativamente limpos, mas o que ficava ao lado do meu quarto não tinha ventilação nenhuma, o que deixava o cheiro de mofo ainda mais forte, além do teto descascando. A cozinha também estava bem suja, o que desanima para quem pretende usá-la. No geral, fiquei bem surpresa com o estado do lugar. Acho que com mais manutenção e cuidado poderia ter muito potencial, mas no momento deixa bastante a desejar.

Too many permanent residents were noisy past midnight. The street noise is loud and insulation between rooms is very thin. It was clean and the bed comfortable.

Habitación muy grande y personal muy amable, especialmente Malik!

My stay at Hostel Boutique Merced 88 was absolutely amazing. Raul is absolutely phenomenal. The staff were very helpful. Rooms and washrooms are clean. The location is premium, you can walk to almost everything (the park, the station, convenience stores, schools). Highly recommend and will definitely come back!

Lugar muy lindo, limpio y céntrico. Muy cerca del metro y de lugares turísticos .

Excelente

Nice place to stay close to city center

Very good location, toilets and showers spotless. Good value simple breakfast. Safe feeling

Easy check-in and check-out. Clean and spacious room with good AC. Many places of interest are within walking distance and the immediate area is safe. I would stay here again.

Está bien para mochileros, por el precio de Hornitos, debió incluir desayuno.

Uma excelente opção em Santiago, o hostel é organizado. Com varias opcoes de quarto. Ambientes compartilhados agradáveis. Banheiros com agua quente, servico de quarto. Equipado com ferro de passar, secador de cabelo entre outras coisas que otimizan a estadia. Fica próxima a estacao de metro e alguns pontos turísticos.

It was ok.

Estadia incrível, me surpreendeu muito a estrutura do hostel.

El lugar está muy bien ubicado y el precio es excelente

La peor experiencia de mi vida. Me encontré sangre en las sábanas. La persona de recepción, un chico joven, me dijo que eso no se podía solucionar y él estaba más pendiente de mirar su teléfono móvil y ver la televisión antes que atenderme. Además me encontré pelos en las sábanas. Me fui a duchar a las 6am y no había agua en el hostal. Muy ruidoso, se oía todo el ruido de la calle. No lo recomendaría jamás. Hay mejores opciones al mismo precio.

Great staff, clean spacious private rooms, with lots of nice amenities: eating area, lounges, pool table, gym and bar. Some issues with street noise, but other than that no complaints. Would definitely stay here again in future.

The staff was extremely helpful, and the area is safe and enjoyable to walk around in.

The hostel was pretty empty during our stay in September and we always had the kitchen for us when we wanted to cook something. That was good because the kitchen is not the biggest. Also the fridge was already full of groceries. Our private room with own bathroom was simple but good. The bathroom always felt wet because there is no window or ventilation. And it was outside of our room, accessible via one key. The cleaning team cleans the kitchen, dining area and bathrooms everyday incl. all floors but the smell of the cleaning products was very intense and a bit too much for us. But it was very very clean. The work area in the cellar was very quiet and good to work with nice office chairs and good wifi quality. The wifi did not work in our room on the top most floor. The staff is very friendly and speaks English very well which is seldom in Latin America. We also used their laundry service, which was ready on the next day for a reasonable price.
