I stayed in the private room. The “private entrance” is you ring the doorbell, someone lets you in then you walk past them and others to your door. There’s a “tumble dryer” in the description but there isn’t one. The laundry is a washing machine that you use yourself for 5 soles a kilo then hang it to dry (if there’s sun it might) The laundry outside the hostel is 5 soles a kg. They do it for you and dry it and all.

Nice vibe. Hot water heater right in the bathroom. The breakfast at 10 soles is worth it.

Kitchen is a bit small

Friendly stuff. Place is good for chilling. Possibility to cook there.

- can be really noisy because it's just beside a main road - I was situated near the entrance door and the cold wind always comes in, and the other tenants don't close the door properly (can't be helped)

- Very centrally located in Barranco - Fast internet - Fully equipped kitchen - there were lockers to store your things - the volunteers managing the place are all helpful

Helpfull staff (info busses, places, safety, early check-in). Quite central, next to a METROPOLITANO Busstation. Good kitchen.

Stayed in July 2022

There is not much space to sit and the hostel itself is quite small and crowded. But the people as mentioned were very nice!

The people there was very nice and it very close to many restaurants and coffee shops. It is also close to the sea

Good location in Barranco district, felt safe all the time. We stayed in a private room and it was a good value for money. Cozy terrace for hanging out and very hospitable and helpful staff.

A little bit small rooms, not much of a problem for me though.

Good little place with economic prices and good location in the Barranco neighborhood. The terrace upstairs is also nice to hang out. The have beers for you to buy.

I like a dark room for sleeping. The people are great if you’ve take the time. Hi Leo. Thank You for everything.

Stayed in April 2024

The staff, Leo in particular, has been very helpful and kind.

Staff doesn't speak much English but they are trying to help anyway.

Second time I stay there. Very nice, close to all the bars, restaurants and cafes.

The hostel is right next to a main road, there was honking car horns all throughout the night and it honestly felt like it was in the room. There's no proper wall separating the hostel from the road, just a wooden garage door so it let's in all the sound. Really need to add sound proofing or don't have a bed right up against this door/wall (my bed was the closest to it so better night's sleep might be had a bit further back) The kitchen is not well stocked and needs additional cutlery and plates etc

Decent price Good WiFi Comfy rooftop

Stayed in December 2023

It was very loud because of the party outside our room. We were afraid of our belongings and even our selfes. Even bed was dirty so we could not sleep comfortable at all.

Stayed in October 2023

Nothing

Location was perfect, a 10 minute walk in to Barranco centre

Stayed in November 2023

At 3am one volunteer (I think from Argentina) was speaking very loud in the dorm room. When I politely asked him not to shout, he gave an aggressive look and said that the space was shared. Indeed because it's shared he shouldn't be waking up everyone. And who does he think he is? He is 10kg of muscles lighter than me. Does he think he is tough?

The location and presence of a kitchen. The volunteer from Colombia was polite and nice.

The vibe...

Love the artwork..

Stayed in March 2023

The door lock wasn’t working and three times we had people open the door to our room. I didn’t feel safe for myself, my partner or our belongings. The fact it was opened a few times means it wasn’t just one attempt by one member of staff either.

If the lock worked and we didn’t have multiple people enter, everything else was good.

Stayed in March 2023

Shower was cold, and the long staircases were a bit of a hassle with large luggage as I had. The kitchen had everything, but the pans and the oven were not super clean.

This hostel was one of the best I have stayed in my whole life. Staff was super friendly and gentle, giving tips on what to see and even taking me out for lunch. I would certainly stay there again when I go back to Lima! Transport from and to the airport was amazing and with a just fare.

Stayed in January 2023

It was not quiet at all, I could hear exactly what happens in the bathroom next to mine, it was not pleasant. Had a private room. Also I could not enter Hostal when I’d like, I had to ring the bell and then wait for someone to open the front door. People at reception made too much noise, they were watching some videos with loud speakers and I could hear everything! Very annoying!

It’s not too far from Barranco center.

Super friendly staff

Staff is very friendly.

Our room was dirty. There was hair everywhere in the bathroom, old things were lying under the bed. It smelled like cigarette smoke. In the middle of the night there was loud chatter at reception for hours.

The location of the hostel in the heart of Barranco was very nice.
