It's my second time staying at this hostel, and I'm loving it still! Clean rooms, nice atmosphere. Management and staff make the difference here; ready to advise and provide you with useful tips on Lima or other places worth visiting in Peru.

Altogether a great place. A good place to meet people and overall comfortable. I recommend staying here.

It is close to everything in... More

Not sure why/how this hostel got such rave reviews. I admit, the staff is incredibly friendly. Don't get me wrong, if you need a place to stay, this is adequate and an OK price for this location. I just don't understand why people are oohing and ahhing about it. They could use some cleaning, organizing, painting, scrubbing to really get... More
