Kleine Oase in Arequipa
Pros:

Kleine Oase inmitten von Arequipa mit abwechslungsreichem Wochenprogramm und toller Bar. Super schöner Garten mit Pool.

Cons:

Abends noch viel Lärm im Barbereich und die Zimmer sind wenig geräuschisoliert. Insbesondere am Wochenende werden hier offene Parties organisiert - Nachtruhe erst ab 4 Uhr. Geräuschempflindliche Personen sollten also kein Zimmer in Poolnähe nehmen. Frühstück eher enttäuschend.

Pros:

Hôtel très confortable, avec un agréable jardin. Le petit-déjeuner laisse en revanche à désirer, mais de nombreux cafés autour sauront vous satisfaire.
Les nombreuses activités organisées par l’hotel sont les bienvenues !

Great potential, mixed experience.
Pros:

Room was clean and cleanliness maintained throughout. Shared facilities were lovely. Location is great, everything is close by like shops, pharmacies, laundry (especially Lavendaria Fairy Laundry around the corner for great rates and turn around). The room was smaller than advertised, but functional.

Cons:

We found most staff difficult and offstandish. For example, our room was meant to have a hairdryer, but it didn't. We flagged this at reception, who dismissed us and insisted it wasn't the case. When we showed him the website confirming this, he disregarded it and said we were still wrong. A minor thing, but we experienced similar situations with staff throughout. We also didn't find the food great. We opted for breakfast included, but this was of very poor quality and with limited options. Would strongly advise against this, particularly with such great places around the area. While having a shop and other facilities on site was useful, prices were extremely overpriced. It felt a bit like a tourist scam, and left a bitter taste when making last minute water or snack purchases.

Pros:

כל המתחם מאוד נעים ויפה, הסוכנות של ההוסטל מצויינת ועזרה לנו לסגור אטרקציות, אפשר לאחסן חפצים גם שעושים צ׳אק אאוט בלי בעיה

Cons:

החדרים לא אטומים מרעש, היינו בשני חדשים ובאחד מהם זרם המים היה מאוד חלש
