The staff are nice and the hostel is kept very clean but with so much choice in Arequipa, this place lacks certain features that would help backpackers. For instance, there's no indoor lounge area so if you check out in the morning and need to get a bus at night, you will have to stay outside, rain or shine. The... More

Dear Guest We`re glad that you found our staff nice and the hostel very clean! In our pictures everyone can see that in our terrace we have a place that will keep you safe from the rain or from the sun. So it`s actually not correct from you to say that our guests have to stay outside if they checked... More

The balcony of our room was overlooking to the street. For those who need absolute silence, it may be a drawback, but for this night it was comfortable, because we fell asleep late enough. Large room, shower with hot water, towels, soap. We booked a room with all facilities (shower and toilet inside), but there are rooms with facilities outside... More

This was a good priced, spacious room with own bathroom. The room faced the street so very noisy but in general ok for a couple of days. I booked a double room with private bathroom through Expedia. Initially, the man tried to give me a tiny room at the back with no bathroom and said that if I wanted a... More

Nice hostel. Central location and pretty good service. In addition to the hostel-like rooms (facilities outside), they gave private rooms with bath and toilet. The rooms are quite spacious and clean, all the equipment is working properly, the staff is friendly and always ready to provide guests with necessary information. I was surprised only that among their three receptionists we... More

We found this place randomly and were very pleased: great location on Calle Jerusalem, cute patio, friendly staff and above all, hot showers with pressure ( a rare find in Perú ). Rooms are basic but clean enough and the patio they open on makes for a lovely stay. We paid 40Soles for a double room.

Slightly strange atmosphere, we didn't meet anybody else when there. The staff have very limited English but they try to help, they were very useful in helping us organise a trip and stored out baggage when we went. There is no internet or kitchen area, but the showers are fair, and were at least warm most of the time, it... More

I stayed here for my first 4 days in Arequipa and thought the place was good. Room clean, staff friendly, breakfast basic but usual for Peru and the sun terrace was very nice. 5 mins walk to Plaza de Armas and felt very safe there.
