My room was so huge and the property is very close to the ocean. The staff was so friendly and helped me when I needed it. Very clean and tidy. The bed was so cozy! I could’ve stayed here for a month or longer. :)

Comfortable with great free breakfast!
I stayed here at the beginning and end of my 6 week trip in Peru, and they had made some renovations in between, so it was a bit different between the two times. The first time I stayed upstairs in a 6 person dorm (which I was later told was converted into a private room). It was spacious and clean but *very cold*! Lima is about 13 degrees at night in the winter, but there was no indoor heating at all so it felt like we were sleeping in 13 degree weather (coming from California this is quite cold). We were provided extra blankets but I still slept with all my clothes on. Also, the showers were pretty warm but did not get hot, which is what I personally prefer in cold weather. That being said, mostly everything else was great! The beds were comfortable, it was clean, the front desk was friendly and helpful. The location is right near the coast which is really nice, but it's at least a 15 minute walk to the busy parts of Miraflores. This is nice because it's in a quiet, safe part of town, but expect to be a bit further from the action. The free breakfast is the best I had in Peru - scrambled eggs, bread, butter, jam, fresh juice, coffee/tea. Would recommend!

First, they need to put some banner in front of the door. It was hard to find when I just got there. Second, they need a proper phone. Which means that I'd like to call with my guide but I didnt' buy a sim card. I go to the front to ask a call but they said that their phone is only available for calling Lan cable call. Which means they can't contact to cellphone. So I ask for using his own cell phone. And he replied that his montly phone plan charges him for every single call. So I couldn't contact to my guide. It was hilarious.

Good enough
Stayed only one night so might not have the big picture. Good enough for the price. A bit further from the better part of Miraflores than expected. No pressure in the shower. The internet did not work. Breakfast starts at 8.

Ótimo lugar para ficar
O pessoal que trabalha lá é muito simpático e atencioso. Não temos do que reclamar da estadia, o único ponto fraco era não ter banheiro privativo, mas de resto é 100% recomendável.

Excelente hostel
Nos quedamos en este hostel con mi mamá 5 noches. Todo excelente, nos ayudaron mucho con recomendaciones de que hacer y como llegar a los lugares, muy limpio y tranquilo, muy bien ubicado, 15 minutos caminando del Ovalo de Miraflores de donde parten muchos tours y transportes. El desayuno buenísimo, pero podría variar un poco, todos los días lo mismo pueden aburrir un poco a personas que pasen muchas noches en el hostel como nuestro caso. Relación precio-calidad buenísima!
