cold showers, bathrooms could´ve been cleaner, lockers need to be able to fit smaller padlocks, breakfast was very basic and could´ve been better. would also be nice if towels were available, even if for rent

Everyone was getting free shots at the bar during the second Happy Hour. The staff really got the party going as we were visiting during a slower time of the year. WiFi was very poor but the 2 computers worked fine. We booked rafting through the agent who worked beside the pool and were super impressed and happy with our rafting choice. Wish we had time to stay longer.

A fantastic addition to the Wild Rover Threesome and although it probably is more the 'Mild Rover', after a hot day in the sun, more of a chilled vibe isn't always the worst thing but there is still plenty of opportunity for aparty if you're keen! As ever, a hostel designed by a traveller for a traveller and you'll find everything you want here. Well, except for a clean pool. No filter and no water circulation has left it a bit murky.... But sunbathing by it is still a grand old time!

If u wanna have fun, this is the place in Arequipa. Nightlife there isn't funny, but this hostel will save you! Of course, if people who are there in the moment are funny, the party will be great. The rooms are away from the bar, so, there's no noise. The food in the bar is very good and the price is ok.

Comfortable beds and hamocks, cheap good food at the bar, helpful reception, great location within the old town. Only two computers available for use. A good place to stay, would recommend. Unfortunately while we were there we could not check in until 5pm when our room was cleaned, then two random staff memebrs kept walking in unannounced to clean something else, way awkward. Note, great crepeteria cafe around the corner!

One of the things I didnt like is NO ACCESS to the KITCHEN. Other than that, good place to sleep. One of the most comfortable beds I have slept since backpacking through Brazil, Argentina, CHile, and Peru. If you are looking for a place to chill and relax (and get some sleep), this is not the place. There is always something going on at night. With that said, good place to party.

Nice staff, bar was ok. nice to have a pool and pool bar too. Big lockers . Need to be buzzed in and out all the time.room was spacious enough. Overall pretty good hostel, of course there is noise from the bar until 1 ish but you would expect that from a WR hostel

Awesome hostel - great bar with fun events every night - incredibly easy to meet people, if you want to sleep the bar closes at 12:30am and the staff takes people out, excellent location, very comfy beds, travel agency located onsite, bar staff was amazing and really got the good times/booze flowing. Everything you could want in a hostel - best stay in South America yet!

Dirty pool, dirty bathrooms, dirty rooms. Staff didn't communicate with each other so reservations and passport copies got lost!big thing for me!food is expensive. Breakfast good.great to have lockers for charging electrical items.not well maintained,heard other wild rovers are so much better.

This hostel was nice but wasnt really a party hostel. Pool is pretty small but its nice to cool down as the weather was really warm when we stayed. Staff were lovely and facilities were good but lacked a bit of atmosphere,

In this hostel were formed some of the best memories of my travel. Made some great friends, and met great legends. I definately recommend working there for a cheap stay and awesome experience, and to become a true Wild Rover.
