Heerlijk en ontzettend lief personeel!
Pros:

We hebben een hele fijne tijd gehad in dit hotel. Het is klein en gemoedelijk. Het ligt helaas aan een drukke straat maar bijna het hele centrum van Arequipa heeft vrij veel verkeer. In het hotel hoor je hier niet veel van. Het personeel is echt geweldig! Zij hebben ons o.a. geholpen met taxi's, bustickets, restaurant tips en overnachtingen in de Colca Canyon. Het ontbijt is op het dakterras en is heel goed. Vooral de pannenkoekjes waren erg lekker en luchtig. De wifi is goed. Je moet alleen opletten waar je bent. Boven en beneden zijn verschillende wifi punten. Alle ruimtes zijn mooi schoon en dit wordt iedere dag bijgehouden.

Cons:

De hotelkamers beneden hadden alleen kleine ramen naar de gang die in verbinding stond met de patio. Omdat iedereen daarlangs loopt moesten we de gordijnen gesloten houden. We misten in de kamer daardoor een uitzicht. De kamers boven hebben wel ramen die uitkijken op het dakterras of de stad.

Pros:

Many staff members were so kind that they even helped us communicate directly with the driver as we departed for the terminal. Our room was on the first floor, connected to a hallway, so there were some issues with ventilation and sunlight, but we had no major complaints.
