A well located and well run hostel. The mix of guests makes this a great place to stay - Easy to socialise and several places to just hang and chat. The front courtyard is spacious and the rear courtyard is very comfortable. The rooftop is a good place to chill with other guests at sunset. I stayed for 18 days and throughly enjoyed myself - So much so that I have just booked a return stay for a week.

The room is clean and spacious. I got three beds all to myself so it was spacious. Location is also good, a quick 5 to 7 minute walk to the main square. Friendly dog on site that loves to play fetch haha. They let you leave your bags after check-out if you need to, which is convenient. Breakfast is adequate with bread, coffee, tea, milk and eggs.
I had a shared bathroom, and it was quite far from my room. It would be nice if the shared bathroom is more central. But I understand this isn't easily modified. Still, it didn't really ruin my stay, I still had a good time.

we booked the suite room and it is as beautiful as advertised. we love how it is close to downtown and a lot of the night life in Arequipa. there was also a speakeasy right next to the hotel that plays spanish songs all night long which we loved. water pressure was good and the bathtub works well. front desk was very accommodating to booking tours and activities. continental breakfast was also provided in the morning. there was also a gameroom with pool table thats open 24hrs.
a lot of the things met our expectation, so i got no comments here.

Location is perfect in Arequipa's old centre, with a supermarket close by. Kitchen was simple, but had enough equipment. Nice 24 hour reception and good luggage storage when you go to for example the Colca Canyon. Also the chilling area is nice and has Netflix and Disney+. We also booked rafting via the hostel, which was amazing!
Wifi didn't work that well in our room. It worked best in the main chilling area. And I think there were a little toe few bathrooms.

We were upgraded to the lovely room on the website. Very relaxing and the breakfast was good. We arrived early and they let us leave our bags and opened up the lounge area for us to sit in.
I was disappointed that as breakfast was included they wouldn’t let us take the breakfast a day early instead as we had arrived early and would be leaving before breakfast the following day. I know other hostels provide an early breakfast for travellers leaving early morning.

The staff was really helpful: We arrived at 5 am, the staff offered to stay/sleep a few more hours in their comfortable living room! Also, when we had troubles with our Colca-Canyon tour, the receptionist (Diego) invested a lot of time to help us find a solution. The interior was clean and tidy, we couldn't have wished it better.

room 2 borders the street and windows not well insulated for noise. could hear people walking past on the street. ( however on our second stay we got a quiet room ( room 5).

The hostel is in beautiful historical house, close to the city center. The staff was helpful and was present 24/24. The dorm was very basic. Basic breakfast but good enough. Great common spaces!
The bathroom in the dorm is very small, and you can hear everything. The shower curtains could not close 100%. There is another bathroom with a shower but you cannot really close the door.

The double private room was huge and the bed was very comfortable. Location is great and the shared courtyard spaces are lovely. Staff are very friendly and this place feels safe.
The water was off when I arrived from Colca Canyon (a city problem) but reception turned on their back up tank for a 5 minute shower. I wish they had told me ahead of time, I would have requested a reduction in the rate. The room didn’t have a window or fan for fresh air, which would be nice on a hot day.

The location is amazing. Maybe a 5 minute walk to the plaza. Also, the hostel is gorgeous and is modelled after the convent. Great shared space, fridge with water and beer, TV room, central courtyard etc. There's also an AMAZING little cafe on the same street.
My bed sank down in the middle of the mattress but it wasn't that bad. (Private room)
