I had a wonderful time at Hostel Boutique Merced 88! The location is perfect, right in the center of Santiago, making it easy to explore everything from museums to parks. The staff were friendly and helped me with everything I needed. However, some noise from the street could be annoying at times, especially for light sleepers like me. Overall, I highly recommend it for a great stay! 😄✨

I had a lovely stay at the hostel, with its prime location close to parks and metro stations being a major highlight. The breakfast was decent, and the common areas were enjoyable, especially the terrace, although I wish it had been open on Sundays. However, the public bathrooms did lack privacy, which was a downside.
