My experience here was soured by an unfortunate situation with my airport transport. My flight out of Lima was in the morning and I needed to leave at 4:15am. I was told my driver would be there on time.... He was not. So I waited...and waited...and waited. I was on my way out the door to find another cab when... More

In a nice location with supermarkets very close, restaurants and take-out places we enjoyed our time at Kusillus. Rooms nothing to rave about but clean and comfy. Internet good and breakfast not much more than the typical West Coast South American brekky. Just a decent cheap place to stay in Lima.

I can’t fully review this hostel because our driver, who we arranged through Kusillu's ahead of time, took use to a different hostel and told us kusillus was full for the night. We booked our reservation weeks in advance. While I appreciate them finding us another hostel, but being told we were being taken somewhere else after we had reservations,... More

Mix of rooms, we had two ensuites which were basic but fine with hot water. Helpful desk staff. Good selection of movies and WiFi. Breakfast OK. Games on roof area including table tennis. Good value for... More

+ the rooms are good and clean and there is a nice roof top terrasse. The rooms don't face the street so it is quiet at night + very good location + the staff is extremly nice and helpful - the owner is rude and doesn't apologize if there is a problem. (always talks back) unfortunately, it doesn't make a... More

This hostel is perfect for backpackers. We were a group of 6 - made up of 3 young couples. We used this hostel for each of the occasions we were in Lima - which wasn't very long as we were only passing through. The rooms are basic but they are clean and comfortable, which was all we wanted and needed.... More

One of the cheapest hostels in a great area of Lima - Miraflores. V friendly place, comfortable beds, stayed in the 8-bed dorm which was fine, plenty of space, lockers and bathroom. Has a nice roof terrace and quite a sociable place although no obligation to join in. Overall very much enjoyed my stay and would recommend as excellent value.

This is, after all, a backpacker's hostel so not fancy. However, the location in the Miraflores district of Lima can't be beat. The included breakfast is basic but good and, while the rooms are nothing special, the bedding is clean. What made this place stand out for me was the people who work there. They are all very kind and... More
