Everything was perfect, very clean and a big kitchen. I enjoyed my stay here a lot. One guy working at the reception was a bit rude when I had a complaint about the laundry, but the other girls working at the reception solved the problem very fast, were suuuuper nice about it and made up for it, so overall I would still give 10/10 for the employees as everybody else was so nice and it was just that one incident :)

we were looking for just one night not so far from the airport. It takes between 10 to 20min in taxi to the airport, which is not long considering traffic everywhere in the city. So good location if you just wanna sleep one night and heads up to the airport. ✅ The apartment is very clean ! 👍 Also the lady was very nice, it was late and she help us finding a restaurant or take out food 😊

Great location on the border of Miraflores and Barranco, so both are easily walkable to. Bunk beds were surprisingly high enough that you could sit up comfortably (which hasn’t been my experience with triple bunks in other hostels). Refurbished and spacious bathrooms, with hot water even at the sinks. Eggs served for breakfast along with two pieces of bread each.

Everything was perfect. We were so happy with our decision to choose this Casa. We loved the quiet location not far from the sea and not far from other visiting places in Miraflores. The neighbourhood was safe. We enjoyed evenings in the Casa outside terasa. All of the staff were welcoming and helpful. Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. All Casa have great atmosphere. We liked it very much.

The pics of the facility did not do enough justice; I think the place it so lovely. It's decorated really well, and I love the organization of the rooms. Nothing is very crowded, and you have enough room for everything! Also, they must attract a certain type of guest because the people that stay are all so friendly and engaging. They are very social and we all got along swimmingly. And if you're into fitness, the neighborhood is perfect and there are multiple outdoor gyms to choose from. The staff IS WONDERFUL! Karla, Edu, Harry, and Caesar were WORLD-CLASS hosts! They were all so friendly and went above and beyond to make sure you were comfortable inside the house as well as outside. And they know the entire city perfectly, so if you want to know about an activity or where to eat in Miraflores or any other part of Lima, they will absolutely know what/where to recommend for you. Another thing I didn't see many other reviews talk about are the beds. Omg, they are the most comfortable of any other hostel I've ever stayed in! They are soft, but not too soft. And they have two different styles of pillows on each bed: one for if you like puffy and the other for if you prefer the thin type. The pillow thing is subtle, but it's nice to have the choice! One more thing about the beds: they are put together solidly! That means that when the person above you moves around, you barely notice it because the beds don't make any creaky, noisy sounds, and the beds don't get shaky when the upper person uses the ladder. Ultimately, I loved my stay at Temazcal and VERY HIGHLY recommend it!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
