The beds are comfortable and offer great privacy. The lockers in the dorms wont fit large backpacks but are big enough for any valuables. The hostel staff are phenomenal as well! i will say all of the rooms face a common courtyard so if you want to go to bed early or sleep in you are subject to the noise of breakfast in the morning and the music/conversation of other guests at night.

Very nice hostel at good value in Arequipa. Location is good, walkable to the centre/bars/cafes. Private room was comfortable. Shared bathrooms are decent but shower was average temp. Very good communal areas, particular the terrace to enjoy the Arequipa weather. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend!

Pros -They can arrange a lot of the tours for you and there are daily social events in the hostel -Clean -Good location -Good breakfast Cons -The bag storage cupboard was often left unlocked and there were no secure spaces in the room to store your luggage. The cleaners also often left the doors unlocked/open (including when we were asleep in our room at 8am) so our belongings never felt secure or safe -The kitchen is very very small with limited opening hours so difficult to cook
