Pirwa Backpackers Familiar Reviews

I like the mood, the staff and the location, but aspects are poor, for example, its very difficult to deal with the shower: too cold or too hot. the internet is only accesible at some spots, the breakfast is poor.

Location good, but incorrectly stated position here on Hostelworld on the map and poorly described street on GoogleMaps. Which makes the hostel without taxi unfindable. :(( Please fix it. Nice atrium and lowely rooms. Good time here.

It's an ok hostel for the price you pay. Stayed in a double room, bed was a bit small and it can be cold at night. Breakfast is basic but good, the staff can help you with tours and trips.

Good party hostel, but overpriced. You are paying extra for the party.

This hostel is a great pick if you're looking for somewhere quiet to relax and recharge. The area is lovely and Bohemian, and close enough to the central Plaza. I was slightly annoyed at having my room moved 3 times, but at the end of the day the place is great value for money, clean and peaceful.

I booked single ensuite, but this was not possible for the price so I got single with shared bathroom. Good location, breakfast ok.

Really liked this hostel!! Cooking facilities are a big crappy but really loved the location in the artesian section of the city and just generally a cute lil place!!! Not a party place which was perfect for me also!!

I´ve always really enjoyed my stays and look forward to going back there. The staff are very friendly and weloming and make you feel at home. The place is kept spotlessly clean, lovely clean and comfofortable beds, and I enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. I feel it is excellent value for money an I feel very at home there and wouldn´t think of staying anywhere else unless I had to. Good to have hot water eveyday as well

This hostel has lots of character and you feel very welcome. The staff were great, most helpful. I arrived at 5 in the morning and they found me a room I could rest in until my actual room was ready. They also had two very friendly kittens on my visit. Wifi good but don't expect much from their computer - I gave up very quickly as it was very slow. I would stay here again.

This was a really nice hostel - however I found it a little cold. The rooms only have small windows (or in our case a sky light) so the sun does not shine in. Also you need to walk across a small court yard to get to the bathrooms. It wasn't the end of the world but when we returned from the Inca trail I wished we'd splashed out a little on a warmer hostel.

The staff were mostly helpful. Rosa the travel agent associated with Pirwa Hostels was very helpful for booking bus tickets etc. Good location. Was annoying that people are constantly smoking in the courtyard so we had to close our door all the time (and still smelt smoke). Breakfast served between 7 and 10. We arrived for breakfast at 9:50 one morning to find nothing left and all tables full. Asked for food (as did others), was told to wait, 10 mins later told no breakfast because its after 10!

Great staff. We didn't like our room and they moved us without issue. Helped us set up a tour and refunded some money when the tour turned out to be cheaper than they quoted (we would never have known if they chose to keep it). Very clean. Breakfast was yogurt, bread, jam, and cereal. Neighborhood is also good.
