Returned from 6 days in Chile. Mixed feelings but mostly positive.

Accommodation:
Budget hotel near the main area. $33/night. Quiet area but close to the action.

Scene:
Busy and well-organized. Prices were slightly higher than expected.

Quality:
Better selection than last time. Had 4 encounters total.

Logistics:
Public transport is good enough. Street food was a highlight.

Safety:
No issues at all.

Overall: 8.5/10. Already planning next trip.

Happy to answer any questions.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.
