Both the Hitchhikers Lima and Hitchhikers Cusco locations were great. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Due to some bad weather, we missed our original flight to Lima from the U.S. and didn't arrive until 4:30am. Hitchhikers still sent a taxi to pick us up in the wee hours of the morning, and were friendly and helpful when we... More

I stayed a private outdoor cabana. It was made of wood and dont know if it was some kind of pest control chemical but it smelled of gasoline. The worst part was that when i left anything that was in the room continued to reek. I had to take my backpack into the shower at the next hostel. Otherwise a... More

Great location in a really beautiful old house. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The free breakfast was pretty minimal (bread, jam, tea), but they did allow us use of the kitchen to make our own food.

I had told the hostel we'd be arriving late. We arrived around midnight (exhausted), and when we did, we were told they had given away our room. They put us in an inferior room with no bathroom. This is understandable, but naturally we'd expect some kind of discount. Instead, the guy there was smug and rude and told us we... More

I found Hitchhikers on the Internet. My 21 year old was going to spend the day in Lima before flying out late at night. Hitchhikers allowed him to store his bags all day, hang out in the living room and only charged him 5$ to get a shower. Since then I have brought college students and adults and they all... More

The staff was amazing and friendly. The drivers they use are witty and intelligent, as all great taxi's are. The location is close to a supermarket, money change/banks, and bars making it easy to enjoy the neighborhood amenities.

My partner and I stayed at Hitchhikers for 1 night in a double room with shared bathroom. We were really impressed by the services available (great kitchen, good wifi, indoor and outdoor common areas) and the overall level of cleanliness of the place. The location is perfect, just by the beach in Miraflores and close to lots of good cafes... More

This place has everything. Loads of common rooms, a huge outdoor area, security, 2 tvs, DVDs, friendly staff and decent location. The only negative was that the breakfast was a bit sparse. Being only bread rolls and glass of juice and coffe or tea. I have been to some hostels in Ecuador and Peru that give eggs and bowle of... More

Airport pickup was great, very nice driver! Location in miraflores is central and secure. Everyone of the staff is really kind and they would help you in any occasion. They clean all the time. Simple breakfast, but in the kitchen you can make everything depending on you needs. Offers Tv room and a computer(kind of slow) and ping pong etc.... More
