    I really enjoyed my stay here! The man at reception was super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The pool was great with a good temperature. There are plenty of toilets and bathrooms in the hostel, and they were always clean. The only downside was that the dorms could have been tidier, as there were clothes and empty bottles lying around. But overall, it was a great place to stay!

    Had a bed behind reception which was fine and quiet enough most of the time but was woken up by a loud guest checking out at 4:30am. The guest was talking loudly for about 15 minutes - woke up entire 8 person dorm.

    Lots of outdoor spaces to hangout, 3 on the ground floor plus rooftop patio. Little warm pool. Showers had great water pressure. Booked surf lessons and walking tours through the hostel and they were all great. Quick walk from the sea wall and fantastic sunset views. Air conditioning!!! Delicious breakfast for 20 sols! Inexpensive airport transfers

    The kitchen equipment is basic and a bit dated, and the kitchen feels dirty throughout the day. It would be nice if the kitchen got cleaned more than once in the morning. The beds do not have power sockets close by or any space to place important personal belongings while you lay in bed.

    The hostel's location is great for exploring some of the best areas of Lima even by foot. The common area is great for connecting with other guests but too small and noisy if you wanna chill for the day.

    I liked staying at Rainbow hostel. It is cosy with a nice swimming pool. You can cook in the hostel and the staff is very friendly. Plus, it is affordable and close the the beach :)

    I didn't like the friendly staff gave me informations and change it later. About laundry, that I had to pay cash, later no card was also accepted, that there was only express service etc. Rules change according to the person in reception.

    Miraflores is super! Clean and secure.

    Nothing!

    All of the staff I met here are attentive, kind, and genuinely care about your experience, especially Felix! Breakfast is a great time to meet other travelers and is somewhat of a social hour, there are plenty of people to adventure with. I especially liked all of the common areas available so you don't have to hang out in your room!

    Would be neat to have curtains in the bunks for privacy especially when needing an early sleep for early departure so not to get disturbed by light

    Super clean, comfy, modern, lovely common aéreas and little pool. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location

    There are no lockers to place yor bags, just in a small one in the second floor that I couldn't fit my bag at all. I got the bed at top and had to keep the bags on my bed because the floor was full, basically I got only half of the bed for myself and almost fell from it once. Staying close to the lobby mean there will be music playing and people chatting, if gets quieter after the midnight tho, Prob you won't get the same issues in another room.

    It is well located, the place was clean, the staff was amazing and the kitchen had a plenty of space .

    Hot water is nice, but it is a bit inconsistent so you have to spend some time playing with the water tap.

    Loved this place. The rooms are quite nice and the place has a calm atmosphere. Ask to stay in the dorm rooms upstairs as they are much nicer. Very clean, well-equipped shared kitchen, very safe, and the pool is heated! I would 100% recommend staying here.

    Everything was perfect, very clean and a big kitchen. I enjoyed my stay here a lot. One guy working at the reception was a bit rude when I had a complaint about the laundry, but the other girls working at the reception solved the problem very fast, were suuuuper nice about it and made up for it, so overall I would still give 10/10 for the employees as everybody else was so nice and it was just that one incident :)

    I really can’t think of anything.

    This place was excellent. The hosts were so helpful, the breakfast was big and delicious and even after checking out they still let me store my luggage and use the pool until my flight. I loved that we’re still able to use the pool late and I was in there until after 10pm, perfect for the heat. Bed was comfy too and safe location, would happily stay again

    The bed had Windows right on top of it in the ceiling so it was not so dark in the morning, it affected the sleep a bit.

    The comfort of the bed was really nice. Personal was really nice.
