I cannot recommend this hostel enough! The owner and her family are such amazing people they provide a home away from home. The hostel is in a relaxed but bohemian neighbourhood of Lima so its very tranquil.. The madness of teh centre is just a cheap 3 minute bus ride away. The hostel is so clean and the kitchen is... more

One Hostel is absolutely the best hostel in Barranco. A great deal! Not your typical, loud, depressing backpacker hostel. It is cozy and friendly. (And much better than the places that I have seen in Miraflores). Its located in a very convenient area of Barranco. Includes your friendly hostess, Melissa, who helps with whatever questions you may have! There is... more

It´s near a bohemian neighborhood called Barranco; banks, stores, the sea and bars are near. Big rooms, internet, breakfast, kitchen facilities, lockers, all the stuff… the most important thing the place in quiet… Melissa who manages the place really nice she knows all about spots, flights and restaurants in Peru and also helped me to find surfing lessons... more

Great little hostel located in the fun neighborhood of Barranco. Super friendly staff and very clean and safe. A little on the quiet side-if youre looking for a party hostel, this isnt the place but all around a wonderful little spot. close to banks, grocery store, restaurants, and the best bar/night scene in lima more

I stayed only a few nights here after having been in Peru for about one week. I thought I was so lucky to find this hostel. Good location, very quiet and secured, and most of all, it feels like at home. With 24-hour internet connection, kitchen available to use, and most of all it is clean. Melissa has been great,... more

Lockers are provided although the place feels very secure. Bathroom clean and great shower with lots of hot water. 2 x computers for... more

We started our trip around Peru at One Hostal and with a 6 month old baby we needed the place to be perfect...and this place was! From the Outset Melissa, the owners daughter, was there for advice and help. The place itself had everything we needed. Clean kitchen with microwave (essential for baby!) free tea/coffee all day, continental Breakfast and... more

We spend there one night because of the excellent opinions on Trip Advisor. Even if the services are very good. We find that the price is a little bit expensive because of the room. There was no garbage in our room, we had to do our bed.... and the prices are 90 soles. So in our opinion no worth it. more

Melissa who runs One Hostel with her father is super-helpful. She jumped online and helped us find flights and busses at the beginning of our month long trip around Peru. It is helpful to have a Limeño helping rather than an ex-pat and it feels welcoming in a family way that I don´t think you can get from an ex-pat... more
