Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Extremely Basic...

The room was clean, well-ventilated, sufficiently furnished and had hot water showers. The reception at the front was helpful. But the hotel do not have the capability to make local phone calls from a home-handphone. only home-home calls are possible. The water in the basin took forever to go down. My bedsheets and blanket had a bad musky smell but i was too tired to care. Just a night stop and the price was decent...

Great Hostel in Lima

Staff are very nice and with great support for every request made. Location is fantastic especially next to the park made the neighborhood nice and comfortable. Hot shower with excellent WiFi, I had my best internet connection in my over 30 days trip in South America. We were staying in 2 person private Room which was clean and nice, only if we could have a "real window" in our room that would make our stay a perfect one. Disregarding the "window" issue, everything is Perfect!

Muy buena estadia, su personal amable y atento, ubicacion.privilegiada. Lo malo es la limpieza, los baños deberian ser limpiados con mayor frecuencia dado que son de uso compartido y darle mantenimiento a la infraestructura porque al menos en mi habitacion la 7 habia muca polilla y polvo fe polilla que caia a la cama por eso la cama estaba sucia a cada rato. Por lo demas si lo recomiendo y claro que volveria. Deseo y espero mejoren estos aspectos fundamentales para la imagen de FlyingDog. Saludos

Chambre bruyante car mal isolée. Petit déjeuner ridicule. Personnel peu motivé. Hôtel très bien situé près du parc Kennedy. Restaurants proches. Pas bon rapport qualité prix. Il y a de meilleurs hôtels dans le quartier.

ミラフローレス地区の大きな公園に面し、治安も悪くないと思います。 レストランも周りに多く、メトロポリターノの駅からも徒歩10分ほどです。 リマで宿泊費を抑えたいと考えるのであれば、よい選択と思います。 日本語を話すスタッフもいましたよ。

Ficamos hospedados duas noites em quarto de casal com banheiro privado. O quarto é espaçoso, limpo, o banheiro funciona bem e a água é quente. O wifi do hostel não funciona muito bem, porém para nós não foi um empecilho, já que o motivo da viagem foi conhecer a cidade e não utilizar internet. Porém, em diversas zonas do bairro Miraflores o wifi é liberado ao público em geral
