Nice hot showers, and partying. I found that the room I was in was real loud, basically you could hear everything that anybody in the area was saying. Aside from that though it was a good experience.

Too much interest in parties and noise. Some are still partying when others wake-up in the morning only to sleep all day.

Aside from the afformentioned gas like cleaning product the place was great. Really like Lima and would visit again. Coastal city, though I didn't swim cause the water looked a lil iffy. The Hostal was a couple blocks from major market that was reasonably priced. Lots of chifas near by and other choices and the food in house was good too. Liquor reasonably priced in the in-house bar. Area seemed safe. Wish I never left.

Decent hostel located in a good suburb of Lima. Facilities were fine, however the hostel just lacked a bit of atmosphere

The Point is a great hostel. Great bar and great food. The staff were very kind in arranging my reservation for me and my friends and other friends arriving later, ensuring that we stay in the same room. Thanks!! However, your cleaning lady uses very toxic smelling products and seems to make other people feel as though they should not be around while she is cleaning. Other than that, your hostel is great and the location is excellent.
