Cleanliness is one thing that really can't be sacrificed in a hostel that works like The Point and it was the one thing that seriously lacked- sinks out of order, bathrooms covered in three inches of dirty water, toilets covered in urine and vomit. The Point might be on the cheaper end of the spectrum, but I urge you to... More

My friend and I stayed here a few times while travelling through Peru. At one point I accidentally left my phone here and they held it for me til I got back. Thanks again. Really social place. Real bar. Good common areas. Close to the beach.

Very fun, party every night and the staff is extremely friendly. Not good if you want to sleep well, but perfect if you're outgoing and you enjoy to share with other fellow travellers. The breakfast was ok, hot showers, lots of space in the dorms and safe lockers. Good information about tours and places to go out. I recommend this... More

Generally something going on, and if there isn't the bar seems to be packed every night. The staff were really helpful, lots of information on activities in Barranco and the nearby Miraflores. Also loads of info about nearby attractions and things to do on the walls. Handily situated a road from the supermarket, 'metro', but unfortunately guests can't use the... More

I liked that the staff was very attentive and a lot of things were made for the bagpackers to feel good (happy hours; hamac; free access to internet), just a bit too bad that after a certain hour no one respect the silence. Maybe it's my fault; I needed a rest but I might just have chosen the wrong place... More

Spent in this hostel 2.5-3 weeks and didnt wanna leave! Went there as a solo traveler and left with so many friends. The staff is amazing and the hostel got a lot going on from day to night, the food in the menu is really good , the alcohol is nice and cheap :) But the best thing is the... More

It is a party hostel with music blasting until AT LEAST 2am. So if you want to party this place is probably for you. If not then I hope loud ,music doesn't bother you... The price was fine, the location was great as were the staff. The room was a bit more than dingy... the bathrooms were quickly nasty, but... More

Don't go here if you like to have a rest. Also don't go here if you don't want personnel in your room in the middle of the night. And also don't go here if you don't like a huge cockroach on your bed. We were told that there was going to be a party, so we don't complain about the... More

Great experience at The Point especially for a first time backpacker. Its very sociable and very easy to meet other travellers as it has a bar, a tv/hang out lounge and a lovely backgarden area to sit in or play table tennis or pool. All the staff are great, they don´t act like they work there they just behave like... More
