09 April 2012

Liked: Location, 1pm checkout, and breakfast available until 1pm. The beds themselves are very comfortable with clean bedding. Large lockers which include a power point.

Disliked: It is definitely not clean. The bins beside the toilets looked as they had never been cleaned, and one of the bathrooms combined with a toilet on the 1st floor was always dirty. There were also insufficient toilet and bathroom facilities for the number of dorms per floor. One night that we stayed there was a girl being sick in one of the toilets for hours, which meant one toilet available for the whole floor. Our dorm was baking hot, and there are no fans. To let any air in you need to leave the windows open, which means all the street noise and noise from the Irish bar downstairs is unavoidable. Fans should also be made readily available on request - we had to locate our own which we found in an unoccupied double room. There was also no way that the fan we obtained was capable of creating a breeze that would reach everyone in the room, especially those on the top bunks. Breakfast is obtained using a voucher at a cafe around the corner. There are supposed to be three menu options including juice, coffee or tea, however on our first morning we were told that only one option was available, and that there was no juice. This is not a restful hostel, and is very much targeted at the young backpacker market.

Liked: Good value; good location; roof top deck is cool

Disliked: Private rooms are HOT from sun (even with shades) and can be loud from bar/street; bathrooms are separate, but close -- not a huge deal; staff was OK. Doesn't have the most character.

Liked: Great hostel,helpfull and really cool staff, Recomended to everyone who wants to stays in a nice place, with great people and great localization.

Disliked: There is nothing i would say i didn't like. But something i would highlight for the other guests, is the outside noisy. To be in region with a heaps of bars, music is loud until late in the night. Beside this, i don't think somebody would not like this place.

Disliked: Big guest house with young and fiesta people.

27 April 2011

Liked: The location of the hostel is in a really great area, a short walk from the main square of Miraflores and 10 minutes to the beach. A nice safe area. The hostel kitchen facilities are good as well.

Disliked: The staff were far too casual and did not offer a lot of help and advice, even when asked. Hard to navigate shower cubicles. The breakfast promoted at the local 'Cafe' was a little disappointing. There was no life and soul to the place, we went to the rooftop bar for a drink on Saturday night and there was no-one around, the hostel is missing something.

16 April 2011 Robert would recommend this property

Liked: Nice bar on the top floor, with free foosball and other games. Reasonable drink prices, particularly during happy hour(s). Felt safe in the private room. Good location, just around the corner from a lot of bars and restaurants, and not far from the main centre of Miraflores. Good place to meet people.

Disliked: There was a fair bit of noise coming from the road next to the hostel, because the doors on to the balcony in the private rooms are only glass and let all the sound straight through. Didn't really stop us getting sleep but if you're sensitive to it you may want to try asking for a room at the back of the building (if there are any?)

Liked: Location, comfortable beds, clean, helpful staff, great things like daily trips into the centre if you don´t want to go alone

Disliked: I didn´t get any sleep before 4am any of the nights I was there because of the club/bar/disco two doors up which was ridiculously loud.
