Red Psycho Llama Eco Hostel Reviews

Red Psycho Llama Eco Hostel is a great hostel from which to explore Miraflores and the surrounding areas.

The Location

Right in the heart of Miraflores (but on one of the more quieter side streets so that you won't be kept awake by all of the noise), you will find Red Psycho Llama Eco Hostel. You will find everything you need within short walking distance from the hostel.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The rooms are quite small but are spacious enough to fit everybody and their stuff. There are lockers that you can use to keep your valuables secure, provided that you have your own lock. There are also plastic racks mounted in the walls as shelves in which you can keep things as well. The beds are comfortable and quite warm during the evenings.

Some dorm rooms have their own bathroom and others have a shared bathroom. Typically, the bathrooms are fairly clean and there is a cleaner who tends to them daily. The hot water in the showers can be a bit hit or miss; most of the time it is a lukewarm affair, which isn't uncomfortable, but isn't exactly awesome when you're cold, but it's not a deal breaker in the land of showers.

Common Spaces

The main common spaces are in the reception areas. There are a few couches in the first area with the reception desk where you will find loads of pamphlets on things to do around Lima. The staff are there twenty-four hours if you need any help and they also have the added responsibility of buzzing you in and out of the hostel, ensuring that the place is secure to unwanted guests.

They also have a dining room area with tables and chairs where the free breakfast is served every morning. It is basic, and mostly consists of bread and jam, but it is ok. This area also has a television and a book exchange.

Out back, there is also a kitchen for people to use. They have a microwave, a refrigerator, and a gas stovetop and it is quite large and spacious, although, also basic.

Summary

This is a great hostel for your time in Lima. The staff are great, there are a couple of cats around that make it feel a little more homey, and they have a large focus on recycling (each room has a different theme for different recycled products). While the shower and the breakfast aren't necessarily the best, they are sufficient and everything else here you will find the be fantastic! This place offers a really nice stay in Lima!

Description

At Red Psycho Llama we're sure your time in Peru will be unforgettably fun; and we wanna make it even better. We believe improving the impact of your travels on the environment improves your experience. So we make a special effort at our hostel to follow sustainable practices and we'll help connect you with places of a similar mind around the country.

If you're interested in participating directly, we have a special relationship with a cultural project in the Peruvian Amazon called "Awajun."

And just like we can recommend fun places to go across Peru we also know all the best spots right here in Lima.

Our hostel is just one block from Parque Kennedy, the centre of Miraflores, probably the most popular district for both tourists and locals. Surrounding the park you'll find tons of bars, cafes, restaurants, shops and galleries. We're right around the corner from the Inka Market.

But if you're looking for a place to just hang-out in peace you can find everything you need without leaving the hostel. There's food and drinks and movies and music and all the stuff to be comfortable, safe, relax and have a good time.

We offer a free real breakfast that includes fresh, natural tropical fruit juice, tea or coffee, homemade bread and an omelette or pancake with special jam.

And there's more on the menu if you'd like – Daniel is a good cook…
