The room is spotlessly clean, tidy, and looks exactly the same as in the photos. The host is extremely warm and welcoming. Many travelers mentioned this area can be noisy, but this accommodation is surprisingly quiet and peaceful, which is really rare. It feels very safe and comfortable to stay here. I really enjoyed the pleasant, quiet environment during my whole stay. Highly recommende

We had a great stay here. The location is perfect, just opposite the main square and very close to lots of good restaurants and cafes. Our room was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay.

very friendly hosts who liked to talk to you, even if you are not fluently in Spanish. for us, as cat lovers, it was heaven, they have 5 cats and three dogs(already miss them) but all of them won't disturb you but like to get a little love from you. you can use the communal kitchen if you'd like, but it was so close to the restaurants, we only prepared a little breakfast for us in the morning there. wifi works excellent.

“Nice stay”
Small but comfortable room, hot shower with good pressure, centrally located (right next to Peru Hop pick up/drop off), friendly staff. Accept card payments with 5% surcharge (less than what the ATMs in Paracas charge). Room was cool enough even with window closed (it only opens out into ground level communal area).
