Best areas in Chile:
Main Scene: Nightlife strip. Best concentration of venues. Well-lit and safe.
Alternatives: Local areas for experienced visitors.
Hope this helps.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $141/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are higher than what's described here.
