Nice charm :) Real funky place to stay. Close walk to supermarket, beach & starbucks :) Not the best pick up service from the Airport as arranged with the Hostel prior to arrival. The driver was late & once we were in the taxi leaving the Airport he asked us to get out & get into a different taxi that was waiting on the side of the main road. Just felt a little dodge in a new place we had never been. Apart from that all good :)

Everything excellent, especially the location. It's so close to the beach and the main bars of Barranco it's perfect.

The breakfast and dinner makes the place really good value for money, and though neither are huge, they are perfectly adequate. The hostel is situaited in the middle of Barranco which is a nice area, and within (just) walking distance of Miraflores. They have a bar which is good value and the wi-fi worked well enough. Security was really really good, locks on the doors, lockers in the rooms and the front door of the hostel is locked too. The beds were nice and comfy too. So all in all, muy bueno

This hostel is a bit strange, it isn´t really a party hostel but its like the staff are trying too hard to make it one. The bar plays really loud music late at night, even though there isnt really anyone drinking.We were upstairs but found it hard to sleep. Also the bald man on reception was extremely rude to me, which is a shame as all the other staff were lovely, espcially the other guy who worked during the day.

Jose at recepcion is just brilliant. Other staff range from poor (owner) to good (bar staff, bfast ladies). Unfortunately there is no smoke free area, the bfast room doesn't allow ppl to smoke until 13.00 is surrounded through open rooms where you are allowed to smoke. Again owner very unfriendly.

Best place ever in Lima! Very fun staff, always something to do, at day and especially at night. And you'll meet incredible people here form all over the world with crazy globetrotter's stories. Definitely the place to be, a perfect introduction to Peru and South America.

Great Hostel. Excellent staff, good location, wide bathrooms with hot water and real orange juice at breakfast! Despite having a bar it is not a party hostel.

I love this place. You can't beat the free dinner. Clean rooms, wonderful staff, and great location in Barranco. I plan to stay here every time I'm in Lima.
