I had a great experience at Hitchhikers. The staff were really friendly which made all the difference. Also it wasn't a fall over drunk party hostel which is what I look for. Plenty of people around but not stumbling over drunk. A couple of beers and civility is what i look for. There was enough space to find some of... More

Hitchhikers Lima is located in the Miraflores section of Lima, a nice upper middle class area with lots of shopping, restaurants, etc. Easily walkable, 2 blocks from the Malecon de la Reserva along the seaside cliffs. The hostel is generally clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The shared kitchen is large but as with most hostal refridgerators, it's jammed... More

Staff is nice and helpful, they can provide pick up service from airport on time. Location of the hostel is quite good too, easy to go other place from the hostel. The toilets were quite clean and hot water is provided. However, the water is hot enough but not strong enough. Beds are tidy and quite clean.We are 6 pl... More

Good location, nice people, clean, secure and good common areas. They stored our bags for 3 weeks for free. We stayed in a double room with shared bathroom. Downsides We're that the matress was solid and plastic, more like a gym mat, and there was a lot of street noise.

Both the Hitchhikers Lima and Hitchhikers Cusco locations were great. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Due to some bad weather, we missed our original flight to Lima from the U.S. and didn't arrive until 4:30am. Hitchhikers still sent a taxi to pick us up in the wee hours of the morning, and were friendly and helpful when we... More

I stayed a private outdoor cabana. It was made of wood and dont know if it was some kind of pest control chemical but it smelled of gasoline. The worst part was that when i left anything that was in the room continued to reek. I had to take my backpack into the shower at the next hostel. Otherwise a... More

Great location in a really beautiful old house. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The free breakfast was pretty minimal (bread, jam, tea), but they did allow us use of the kitchen to make our own food.

I had told the hostel we'd be arriving late. We arrived around midnight (exhausted), and when we did, we were told they had given away our room. They put us in an inferior room with no bathroom. This is understandable, but naturally we'd expect some kind of discount. Instead, the guy there was smug and rude and told us we... More

I found Hitchhikers on the Internet. My 21 year old was going to spend the day in Lima before flying out late at night. Hitchhikers allowed him to store his bags all day, hang out in the living room and only charged him 5$ to get a shower. Since then I have brought college students and adults and they all... More
