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.

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.

Horrible - Never again

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.

Fomos início de Agosto e tivemos uma excelente experiência no Hostel Merced 88. Tivemos que alterar em cima da hora os dias da hospedagem e os funcionários foram muitos solícitos em resolver o nosso problema. Deixo meu agradecimento a todos os funcionários que sempre foram muito atenciosos em especial à Orianna, Eric e Cata (não lembro o nome dos outros). A localização é excelente, perto de pontos turísticos, e é possível fazer muitas coisas caminhando. Voltaria outras vezes.

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.

Hostel bem localizado com ótimo custo benefício.

Excelente acomodação, próximo de várias atrações! Pessoal super atencioso, sanaram todas as nossas dúvidas. Agradeço em especial ao Lucas, que foi super gentil conosco. Café da manhã era ótimo, tinha um excelente doce de leite e ovos cozidos. Houve apenas um pequeno problema, pois reservamos o quarto com banheiro privativo e não tivemos acesso a ele, tendo de usar o banheiro coletivo.

O hostel possui ótima localização, boa estrutura, é limpo e bastante organizado. Fui surpreendida pelo café da manhã, que não estava incluso, mas foi servido durante a minha estadia. Parece ter sido uma adição recente, e uma ótima surpresa. O quarto era espaçoso e confortável, com armário e alguns cabides que facilitaram a organização. E, apesar de ser bem próximo a rua, o barulho não foi incômodo durante as noites. O banheiro do quarto também era bem equipado, mas com alguns pontos de melhoria: por vezes exalava mau cheiro vindo dos ralos, o que me forçava a manter a porta fechada. Além disso, o ralo do chuveiro não possuía bom fluxo, o que fazia o espaço ficar cheio de água. O ponto alto, definitivamente, foi a simpatia e a atenção de todos os funcionários, que eram sempre muito solícitos.
