I could not highly recommend them enough. Rates are extremely reasonable. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Staffs are the nicest people you will ever meet. We arrived at 6am and we were welcomed wholeheartedly. This gem is situated in the HEART and SOUL Arequipa. You can literally throw a stone at the Carhedrsl. Its vibrant neighborhood is bursting with cultural activities. It has the colonial charm that every photographer dreams.

Good budget place. Great location
It’s an old run down place. But the location and service is amazing. Comfortable beds and clean. If you are looking for luxury, this isn’t it. This is the place if your are looking for privacy, comfort, location and price. Would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
It's a colonial building with great upgrades and very spacious rooms. It's on an excellent location. We had a corner room that allowed us to see the main plaza and cathedral. The top terrace is used as the breakfast area, which by the way it's delicious, offering cereal and yogurt, fruits, bread and coffee, milk, juices and your choice of eggs. The service is outstanding, from the reception desk to the service of the room and breakfast. Beds are comfortable and the shower is always hot and strong. We loved to stay here and will recommend it to everyone. Thank you, Paul, Henry, Karen and our very favorite, Cynthia!

Location is good, but condition of the hotel is run down. Walls were marked and had paint bubbling. Floor of our room was very old hardwood that you could feel move under you. Curtains were ripped and towels upon arrival were threadbare. (they were later replaced with better ones). The breakfast offered was OK for one day, very basic. I would consider this a backpackers hotel, not one for couples or families.

Granted its probably not up to the standards of a traditional hotel in the USA or Europe, but for South America I thought this place was perfect. Clean, close to the center, friendly, warm, everything you need. But obviously not a super luxury place!

Great location, good breakfast. The downside: the room was small, the water turned brown until next day. The floors creaked when we walked around. Overall, the stay was ok.

Pleasant stay and great location
The location is perfect. All the activity seems to be within walking distance and it is good to be able to return to the hotel as often as wanted. The beds were very comfortable- great nights sleep. The rooms were clean. The shower was hot. The cable channels plentiful with premium movie channels for free. The rooftop dining a nice touch. But the best part was the friendly and helpful staff. They provided all we asked for with a smile and friendliness. However, the room sizes and designs are not optimum and they are missing some basic hotel amenities (phone, iron, hair dryer, safe, etc), had to request to have a chair in the room, but it was provided immediately. The bathroom was also tight.

Good if you're on a budget. Thin walls and creaky floors. Clean. Helpful staff. Nice terrace with views of cathedral and mountains makes for very pleasant breakfast and happy hour drinks at sunset. Pisco cocktails are fresh and yummy!

Excellent location
This hotel is right next to the plaza and Cathedral. If you get a room on the street side, your view will be of the cathedral towers. Very nice rooftop deck witha gret view. Free breakfast is served up there. I also went up there in the evenings for a drink and they do serve a full dinner menu. Staff was very friendly and watched my bags while i was gone a few days on the Colca canyon tour. rooms could use a little updating, but it is OK, since I was only in the room to sleep and shower. Price was reasonable

Loved the location, hot showers. Bed comfortable. Stayed Tuesday through Sunday. Room 203 overlooks walkway. Window opens for fantastic view. On negative or be aware: if stairs are a problem, this property might be an issue. 1 1/2 flights to Lobby and 2 flight to rooftop breakfast. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Best location in Arequipa
Excellent location, I traveled with my family and we had a good time, breakfast in the rooftop was very good and the view from the window is excellent. It is a bit noisy at nights due to the proximity to the Plaza de Armas but if you are traveling this will not affect you.

Small, clean and perfect location!
My first impression of this place was a bit guarded. We had arrived very early after flying in from Cusco and finishing an Inca trail hike the day prior. They staff was very accommodating and let us check in early! They also arranged for our clothes to be laundered. We decided to do a Colca Canyon excursion the next night and so they stored our luggage and let us check back into the same rooms (cleaned of course) the following night. The breakfast upstairs on the terrace is wonderful, by that I mean she cooked us up some eggs to order when we arrived. The street noise could be heard from our room but eventually that all turns quiet and we slept very well. The room was clean, the bathroom and shower were just fine. The staff was perfect! I grew to just love this little gem on a busy street.
