Very friendly, safe, and good location in Miaflores. Family atmosphere, not party atmosphere. Really helpful, they helped us to organise bus tickets, and stored our stuff while we travelled elsewhere.

A small hostel with friendly staff based in Mira Flores only 5 minutes walk from Larco Mar one way and the best supermarket in Peru the other. Our airport transfer didn´t turn up but we were able to arrange one ourselves for less.

Great location in Miraflores and great beds. Got a really good nights sleep unlike some other places. Staff were also very helpful and coped with my bad Spanish. Place was a bit quiet but that could be as much to do with time of year as the hostel.

The place was OK! Their website leads you to believe that it is better than what it really is. There was no hot water, the bathrooms were filthy, they had no luggage storage (as claimed), and it was extremely hard to get in and out of the building (no doubt for security reasons, but a pain).... more The place was OK! Their website leads you to believe that it is better than what it really is. There was no hot water, the bathrooms were filthy, they had no luggage storage (as claimed), and it was extremely hard to get in and out of the building (no doubt for security reasons, but a pain). Dogs barked all night next door, there were no curtains on the windows, and the owners kids screamed and cried the entire time. I would not recommend this place especially when you can find better hostels for the same price.close

This place is very secure and the rooms are comfortable. There´s free internet aswell. Breakfast is also an added bonus, a couple of buns and some jam and butter to start off your day. Rooms have cable TV.

There is no toilet seat in the dorm bathroom which is pretty much par for the course in Lima. The location was very good and Miraflores is very safe compared to the rest of Lima.

A great place to stay. Right in the heart of miraflores. Friendly, english speaking staff. Was there during the off season so it was a bit quite but apart from that, all good

This hostel was a great introduction to Peru. They collect you at the airport, the place is spotless and most of all, the staff are so friendly and helpful...you feel like they have invited you into their home! Highly recommended.

But the staff do make an effort to ensure that one enjoys one stay. The staff are very security conscious and would advice one what not to do when travelling outdoors. Helpful in giving advice to different cultural locations in the city and one staff member took the time to take me an anothe guess to Central LIma to show us the heart of the City and explain things to us and helped translate at the Museum. I enjoyed my short stay and would recommend the hostal to others. Claudine.close
