“Fabulous!”
+Cute hostel a short walk from the main square. Outside is well lit and Jasmine, the staff member, was amazing! She had an issue with her son being ill one morning so wasn’t around in time for breakfast (not a massive issue, there’s a lot of great cafès nearby) but offered to cook us lunch instead. She also allowed us to take the front door key to the hostel with us when we went away for a night to the Colca Canyon, ensured our belongings were looked after while we were away.
−Nothing!

“Lovely host family with a clean and comfortable hostel”
+The host family were really lovely and helped you in every way they could, great breakfast, good pressure in shower and excellent location. Large room.
−The bathroom could have been made a bit larger and needs a bit of a refresh but clean and usable.

“Great value for money”
+Our double room with en suite was a great size. Nice views of Arequipa from our balcony. En suite was perfect. Shower was nice and hot whether we used it day or night. Breakfast was delicious and it was nice to sit out on the terrace and enjoy the sunshine as we ate. The receptionist was very helpful and let us leave our bags in secure storage for the day and she let us use the hostel facilities while we waited for our night bus. Excellent location, only a 2 min walk to the main square. Pool table and fussball tables were a nice touch. Overall great value for money
−Decor was very dated. The doors weren't very soundproof so we could hear most noises from the street. There was no atmosphere in the common areas when we were there. Kitchen and bar area was dirty and disorganised.

“Pleasant”
+location is good
−The hot water wasn’t stable, we took cold water two days. The staff can’t speak English, he can arrange tour but he didn’t arrange English tour for me, how can we join a tour only Spanish even he knew we didn’t understand any Spanish.

“Great hostel experience.”
+The location was perfect just a block from the main square and within the historical center. The staff was a family that was super nice and accommodating. A decent breakfast was provided and served to us by the staff.
−The room was fairly loud at night with the cars and people in the streets below. Bring earplugs! The showers were warm with good water pressure but the drain in our room was not working well.

“Very good”
+The staff were really helpful, actively looking for ways of helping us. It's a nice family run place in the center of arequipa, very reasonably priced - would recommend!
