Bothy Hostel Reviews
Customer Review - 16 December 2009
Was a little disappointed. Beds are comfy and rooms are clean. but. Breakfast is bad (except for the good pancakes) - showers are at best luke warm - atmosphere is boring - why do the staff start playing loud music at 6am Location is good, just a few minutes to the main sights/bars/etc. and where possible the staff are helpful. Not the best hostel, but I guess its not the worst either.

Great hostel, very close to everything. Dorm rooms don't have locks so make sure you use the lockers for your small valuables. Hostel complex itself is very secure. Very helpful staff, not all speak English so get your information in the day time. Hammocks are bliss.

When I was there, there were not many people and then it is a little bit dull, ofcourse. A little bit too dark, the bar was not inviting, dark also.

Only had a whistle stop tour at Bothy, but seemed very relaxed and friendly. Also had very good breakfasts - homemade pancakes!! Hot water showers a bit sporadic but does the job

Great place to stay, near the Plaza de Armas and all the bars and restaurants on San Francisco. Will look out for their place in Puno too.

Friendly staff, good party atmosphere always something organised in the day/evening would definately recommend for anyone staying in Arequipa.
Customer Review - 4 August 2009
This is a good hostel with very sociable and helpful staff. We didn't use the kitchen and the showers are solar powered, so cold at night. But there is always lots to do on offer at cheap prices and the 'Powder Room' idea is great.

The hostel was nice and the staff very helpful. However, it needs to advertise itself much more clearly as a party hostel. I arrived after a 12 hour bus ride with an 8. 00am bus to catch the next morning, to find that there was an all-night party planned. The hostel is so small that if you dont want to be a part of he all night boozing, there is nowhere to go.
