We arrived late one evening after the airline had lost our bags and it was welcoming and friendly. Ana, the owner was very helpful, giving us directions and talking about sights not only in Lima but other parts of Peru. She also let us stay an extra night (whilst we waited for our bags) on the sofas as all the... More

This was probably the most homely and one of the most intimate hostels I've ever been to. Great value, with intimate, laid back atmosphere and friendly, helpful hosts. If most of the stuff you want to do is in Miraflores or Borranco, you have to factor in the travel price to get there and back, which - if you don't... More

I have spent months traveling in Peru and South America and this is the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Yes it's in a residential area, yes it's not a party hostel, but it's safe and you can walk around most of San Borja at night. It's close to the now open electric train which gives you access to many... More

The small 'hostel' is just the top floor of her house located in a residential district very far away from the tourist/backpacker attractions. You will be at the mercy of taxi drivers who find it very difficult to locate the address. Contrary to... More

Imagine your perfect holidays: you are in South America, doing some gringo stuff - drinking coconut milk on Copacabana, singing Girl from Ipanema, painting in Valparaiso, licking earth in Uyuni, climbing on Wayna Picchu, (...), and when you finally rich the last stop of your dreamed holidays - you just can't believe that you can feel more like home.
