Hotel Meflo Playa Grande

The only good thing about the hotel is the nice view from the small balcony over the sea. The rest was just a disaster:
- In my bed were lots of bed bugs. I got bitten all over. This explains the bad smell I had when first entering the room - it was from a spray against bugs, what I figured out later. Unfortunately it didn't get rid of the bugs.
- NO WiFi in the room.
- No power socket in the room. Only one in the bathroom.
- Extremely low water pressure.
- Be aware: NO SAFE PARKING! They have a parking space right beside the hotel. But the gate is wide open, and the receptionist refuses to lock the gate. Only after requesting several times to have the gate locked, he locked it at 11pm. The hotel is directly at the PanAm. So everybody walking or driving by can go in the parking lot. From the reception it is impossible to see the parking lot. And no light in the parking lot. So easy for anybody to sneak in.
- Rooms look very old and outdated.
This hotel is a 3 star hotel? I would not even give it one star. Extremely bad value for your money.
So: don't go there!

Great view from the small balcony off the room. Good for a one night stopover on our way to Arequipa. Not a whole lot to do in the main town, find your way to the beach front in Chala. Beware of live music on the beach on Saturday nights.

Hotel bem localizado, mas, deixa a desejar.

Tolle Lage oberhalb des Strandes
Für das Konzert am Strand von 20:30 bis (!) 02:00h Nachts und das Erdbeben um 4:15h kann man das Hotel ja nicht verantwortlich machen.:-)
Personal sprach kein Englisch
Frühstück überschaubar mit abgezählten Brötchen

Problems with wifi. Restrauant? Ocean view. Locate on Google maps as Meridan Playa Grande on Panamerican

Hotel zelf heeft een prima ligging aan het strand. Interieur is enigszins wat gedateerd maar stoorde ons niet. Grote kamers. Personeel is alleen niet servicegericht en doet ook geen moeite om (deels) engels te praten. Ontbijt zou tot 9 uur zijn maar paar minuten voor 9 aanschuiven kan niet.

The price and the view to the open sea is great however the rest is a desaster. It's a very noisy Hotel as directly located at the Panamerica. Only after asking we got a very limited breakfast. Go there only when you have no other choice. We used it to break our trip frpm Arequipa to Nazca.

Hotelpersonal hat offensichtlich keine Lust zu arbeiten. Als Kunde wir man quasi ignoriert.
Man versprach uns einen sicheren Parkplatz, es war allerdings eine kleine Fläche neben dem Hotel, mit Metalstreben umzäunt und einem Gittertor. Auf Nachfrage hieß es abgesperrt wird hier nichts (und das soll sicher sein?),es hängt ja eine Überwachungskamera an der Wand. Nach dem lustlosen Auftreten des Personals können it uns nicht wirklich vorstellen dass jemand nachts davor sitzt. Nach einiger Diskussion fand sich dann doch ein Vorhängeschloss. Als wir später noch einmal am Tor vorbeiliefen war das Tor wieder offen und das Schloss verschwunden. Auf unsere Bitte wurde dann doch wieder abgeschlossen. Wir hatten das Hotel unter anderem ausgesucht weil es laut Beschreibung ein Restaurant hatte, das war allerdings, wie fast alle (!) in dem Ort geschlossen.

We loved the balcony overlooking the ocean and the sound of crashing waves. The towel that we had to share was soft and nice. Breakfast was some rolls and a fried egg for each of us, and instant coffee. The staff was nice.

Solo fue para dormir y para eso es que sirve mas nada

There was only one towel, and still when we asked for a second. Little water and sometimes no water. The staff next morning did not know we had already paid. It took them Some time to find out. The location of the hotel is very good, near the beach and the panamericana.

Our room had a great view of the beach - we could watch the sun set from our balcony. Breakfast was average. The staff are accomodating enough - they let have a late checkout as we were catching a night bus at no extra cost.
