Best place to stay in Huaraz!! They help you with your laguna hikes, breakfast is good, dinner is good if you want. We sleep in good beds and everything is clean with hot shower! It only cost 2 soles to go in town with the colectivo number 18 and come back with the same. They are really friendly and helpful! Highly recommand.

Had a lovely stay here! Clean rooms, peaceful and lovely hosts. We arrived really early and were given breakfast. The location wasn’t ideal, we found collectivos/ubers weren’t the quickest, the price also added up. We departed on a night bus and asked if we could check out late, they said yes but didn’t say forbaand the hostel was super quiet. We should have asked price as we were disappointed on checkout to be charged a whole extra night for this. The checkout process also took a very long time

Wonderful hosts and very accommodating, clean rooms and delicious breakfasts. Maruja couldn't have been more hospitable and always made sure I had what I needed, she is a lovely person and makes you feel right at home. I was able to leave my bags there during my HH trek and also stay in my room until my evening bus. I seriously recommend staying here. Only downsides were that occasionally the shower water was only lukewarm and the prices of booking excursions thru the hostel aren't competitive.
