The b&b is only about 10 minutes walk from the main square and is in a quiet area. It is safe to walk back to at night. The owners are very helpful and will recommend restaurants, food, etc. The room was fine and had hot water, but got a little cold at night.

This hostal is across from a beautiful park, where joggers and dog walkers abound in the early morning. The hostal is away from the noisy city, but within walking distance to the square. The owners are very helpful with plans, calling taxis, and any special needs. Breakfast is included, and water bottles are available. Knowledgeable about points of interest. .

We were recommended this hostal, but found it a bit dissapointing to be honest. The room we got was the smallest so far on our journey in Peru, and it had windows out into the common room. Staff wasn't always present, which sometimes led to difficulties as there were noone speaking English or able to help us when needed. But,... More

Very tranquil place about 15 minutes walk from the Centre of Arequipa, opposite a lovely park. Room was on ground floor near to reception but was extremely quiet. The bed was very comfortable and the room was spotless, cleaned meticulously every day. We only had breakfast the first day but was a little disappointed as it consisted of bread (albeit... More

The owners could not be more pleasant & accommodating. After a 10 bus ride from Cusco I recharged my batteries for two (2) nites & could easily have stayed longer. It is well located, fronting a pleasant park, but easy walking distance to Arequipa's Plaza de Armas. I would return immediately & recommend it w/ no hesitation.

I stayed for a few nights at La Fuente last month. I found it to be a very pleasant, comfortable place to stay. It's in a reasonably quiet part of town so it was easy to get a good night's sleep and it was about an easy 15 minute walk to the main square through a safe part of town.... More

La Fuente A, is opposite a park and on a low traffic road. To sit outside and have breakfast, look into the park and beyond the snow capped mountains was a treat. This is a truly professional business run by a family who care. One night in our stay the family had a birthday party, we could hear singing of... More

Hassle-free, homely and very friendly is how I could describe Señora Milenka property. As others have noted, guests are their most important matter. Hostel is located in front of a big park where you can take a morning stroll. The main plaza and most of touristic attractions in the city itself are a few minutes away walking (literally, 10 min);... More

We were traveling with a group of six and everything about this place was fantastic. The owners, Milenka and Joe, were very friendly and willing to accommodate any reasonable request with pleasure. It was obvious to us that their guests are extremely important to them. The location is great, located across from a park and relatively quiet from traffic, allowing... More
