Renee Gullett

24 March 2010

Liked: A great location in a lovely neighborhood. However, it was a bit noisy especially as we had a room facing the garden. Unfortunately, the staff did not maintain quiet hours in the garden for those who were in rooms facing the garden so we had a couple of sleepless nights. Kitchen was adequate.

Disliked: Renee left no negative feedback.

Alexandrina Sukhanova

03 January 2010 Alexandrina would recommend this property

Liked: This is a very basic hostel, no thrills. The double ensuite room we had was clean but very simple, hot water would come and go. For the price that we paid it was an OK place to crash in the very beginning of our trip in Peru. The location is quite good in the San Isidro area, just a block away from big supermarkets and banks. The pickup and dropofff at the airport was great as well. But as mentioned, its a very basic place to sleep.
