Party hostel, don't expect much sleep if thats what you're looking for. But you probably already knew that. That being said, it was a lot of fun, although the all backpacker staff made for some slow service. Whatever, know what you are getting into.

The hostel was gorgeous however the staff were very poorly education on answering any basic questions regarding restaurants, activities and even hostel information. We has to ask the girl who checked us in to tell us everything and if we didn't I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have mentioned a word about breakfast/check in/out/ wifi etc. the facilities and location were great though. Loved it the first time I stayed there and the second and will definately stay there again if some changes were made.

Nice hostel, great location and beautiful building. Good party crowd and good bar. The rooms were a bit too dark and the bathrooms not very clean. Wifi wasn't working most of the time and four computers are not enough for so many people. But in general, this hostel was great, thanks to the amazing pool area and nice people. Recommendable!

Loki is the place to go if you are travelling and you are planning to spend a few days in Mancora. If you are on your honey moon, you might want to find something a bit more quiet. But if you are not, then Loki is your only option.

Great Hostel, big pool, direct exit to the beach, very good location. Prices in the bar are ok. The rooms are nice and you have a big locker to keep your valuable staff secured. Staff is great but could have more people from latin america at the bar,but I guess it depends on the availabilty of travelers that wanna stay and work there. You have a lot of games (ping pong, jenga, pool, beerpong competitions, pool volleyball, etc). They give you free breakfast (2 pieces of bread, a fruit, box juice)

The hostel is nice, ideal for people between 20-25 because it is a little noisy... the location is good, and you have all you need inside the hostel... which is really important as mancora is quite unsafe...

I think Loki is OK but its neccesary to improve cleanliness of rooms and also the breakfast, bread was from days ago, so it was preferable to go outside to have a good breakfast. I liked the atmosphere, the concept of the hostel, the rules for convivence.

Great facilities, location and staff (Mali, you are awesome!). The only downside is that the hostel has too much of an "american" vibe... american drinking games (beer pong, flip cups...) every night, with little or no space for a real peruvian feel. But, if you are into that, then you def have to come to this hostel. And, have in mind bar closes at 1am, afterwards, few parties going on outside.

Resort style hostel, great for relaxing. Don't spend too much time in Mancora though as there isn't a lot to do outside the hostel! Bar area smells and is a bit dirty. Plenty of fun and games organised by the hostel to get you through!

Lovely place. Excellent value for your money. The right combination of fun, party and quality service with all facilities. Very clean, very dedicated staff in the frontdesk, kitchen and house keeping, the beds were excellent. A nice resort inside Mancora... I enjoyed my time and I will be back again for the next Jan/Feb break... Good work Rhiannon, Dre and the rest!

Not as wild or crazy as some people make out. It's like a resort in Greece. Music stops about 1 every night and doesn't start up til the afternoon so easy to sleep if you want. ONE MAJOR PROBLEM THOUGH IS SECURITY. For some reason you are not allowed to lock your dorm doors and basically anyone can wander in to your room. I even woke up one day to find a random Peruvian guy (who wasn't a guest) walking through our dorm! We heard many stories of things going missing whilst we were there.

If you enjoy a good time and having a party, you won't want to leave Loki! Located right on the beach and with its own pool it's the perfect place to relax in the sun by day and party by night. Whether its the activities and parties put on by Loki or down by the beach, there is always something going on. Only recommendations are ear plugs if you're a Light sleeper and sunscreen. The food at Loki is also great and very well priced, as are the drinks. As for the staff they're the absolute titties
