“Restful stay”
Lulú and Kristian are fantastic hosts of this hostel. They were very kind and helpful. The place itself has a great vibe and I enjoyed resting before and after some hikes on the rooftop. Breakfast was great too! Great value for the money, can recommend! :)

“Absolutely lovely stay!”
The owners were absolutely lovely, always smiling and so, so kind. I was sent a very informative message before my arrival about the accommodation, its' services and activities I can book through them, as well as places of interest in the city of Arequipa. The room is comfortable, there are multiple blankets provided (which is great since it can get quite cold during the night) and the bathroom has a nice shower with hot water. They are flexible with the check-in time which is great if you have taken a night bus to Arequipa and arrive early in the morning. Loveliest of all are the pets that are in the hostel! One of the cats came to sleep in my bed every single night, it was so sweet. :)) There is a very lovely hippie-like atmosphere to the place and the owners make the accommodation feel more like a home than a hostel.

“Best Hostal in Arequipa!”
Lulu and Chris are kind & chilled hosts. They take the time to talk with you about anything and give a lot of effort to book the best tours you want or help you doing it on your own. Also for my further travel Lulu gave me so much insider tips. The hostal is clean & comfy, breakfast is prepared with love and it's perfectly located near the Plaza de Armas. Also they have the best equipped kitchen in whole Peru! Fast working stove, microwave, water boiler, coffeemaker, different mixers, and sooo much Tupperware! I appreciate the love the two of you are spreading and I felt very comfortable in your Casita ❤️

Beyond the superb location, delicious breakfast, and excellent value for money, Chris and Lulu truly make you feel at home. It’s incredible how hard it is to leave—even after just a couple of nights. Already missing you, Lulu and Chris. Take care and hope to see you again soon!
