I needed a place to stay for about 12 hours while my flight departed so I look for a cheap Room In the surrounding area for what I paid it served it’s purpose. I am sure that they had other rooms that were more comfortable if I was there for that reason. But it was very secure and clean and it was in a safe neighborhood the staff was friendly

Its was just a few hours. Its difficult to judge and expect much from a $44 overnight stay. This was worth the hot shower and a bed than wait it out for 11 hours for the next flight. Breakfast was disappointing though. That needed improvement on so many levels.

Be aware of the $25 fee for airport shuttle!
The hotel rate was fair but I wish we’d known that their airport shuttle “amenity” cost $25 (each way). $66 for the room + $50 (and tip) to get there and back to the airport. By the time the shuttle arrived at the airport could not check in to the hotel until after midnight and had to check out at 3am to allow enough time to get back to the airport.

Good stay.
The staff was all very friendly, and very accommodating. The room was cleaned very thoroughly daily. Does no one do any ironing anymore? I asked for an iron, and they offered their laundry service. Also, we did have an issue with the instructions for using the safe. I follow instructions implicitly, and had nothing but trouble till I did it another way. I did suggest they make a correction on the instructions. We have stayed here because it is very close to where family lives, and close to shopping, restaraunts, etc.

Need a place to stay overnight to catch a flight on the following day. The location for the hotel was convenient although they offered a shuttle for more than twice the price of a luxury taxi.

Not worth it
Location not good, staff unknowledgeable, the room had a window looking into extremely small court yard across from another rooms window. Hotel doors to outside they can never make work to unlock with button, we always had to wait for them to come around with keys to let us in and out. Also ended up with 2 HUGE bites from something in the room while sleeping. This was the only hotel I was bit at after being in Peru for 2 weeks and 6 different hotels. The kitchen staff was really nice & curious.

I reserved a room for $40.50 a night but when I arrived to check in, the front desk staff told me that they didn’t have any rooms at that price available. They suggested that I take a room for $65 instead. I had to ask them to talk to their manager. I got the rate I reserved at the end after they gave me a hard time.

This hotel is good value for money on a layover. Nothing in the local area. We asked for a breakfast or water to go and they weren't able to help. I also left something in the room and contacted the hotel 3 times (using the tel no and email add on their website) to ask them to hold it for me, and on my return was told they don't monitor those lines of contact and they didn't have it. They were exceptionally unhelpful with this, and rude to boot.

The overall experience is not that bad, but the hotel is noisy and dirty. Convenient since it's about 15 minutes from the airport, wouldn't have chosen otherwise. There are far better places in Barranco or Miraflores areas.

Surprising last minute comfort
Our Airbnb fell through and we had to book a hotel quickly at nighttime. Thankfully this was only a few blocks away and close to my family's place. The staff were really friendly and helpful, the room was nice, comfortable bed with a good shower. Breakfast was reasonable and we were happy with the price (same as the Airbnb).

Basic Room at a Reasonable Price
We had a 7 hour layover and wanted a shower and a few hours sleep in a horizontal position. Didnt use any other facilities other than these. Lots of noise coming from the street. Shuttle was on time to pick us up at the airport. Even though it was midnight, there was a lot of traffic. Dont want to think about what it may be like during the day. Front desk spoke good English and very efficient. Wake up was on time. Shuttle back to airport was swift until got to airport property and then took 15 minutes to get to departure arera from entrance at 4am!!!

Safe hotel, close to the airport and friendly staf
The airport transfer didn't go as planned as the hotels driver failed to show but we had lots of options with taxis from the airport. Had a safe ride that only cost $13.00 USD and the receptionist couldn't apologize enough. Lovely staff, big yummy breakfast and hot water and tea coffee is available 24/7. Not much around the hotel so we ordered in and had one of the best chicken dinners ever. Full of flavor, moist authentic BBQ chicken, tons of french fries, salad, soda, and two pieces of different cakes. It was a hotel recommendation and it was delicious. Would definitely stay again especially since the price was right.

Comfortable hotel not too far from airport
I booked a room online because I needed to stay a day in Lima before catching a bus the next day to Huaraz. Was picked up promptly by hotel taxi driver at airport, and then driven to bus station next day by hotel taxi driver. Made a booking error that could have cost me an extra day, but hotel was nice enought to cancel the extra reservation at not cost.

Overall experience was good and we will be back
All the people were very friendly and polite. We had a very good experience with all employees. There were some minor deficiencies that were taking care of immediately such as the light stand lamp not working properly and bathroom lock not working properly. It would've had been nicer if the hotel had an elevator, but all considered Carlos and Giovanni were very helpful carrying the suitcases.

They do not seal their water bottles
I just needed a place to stay near the airport for a few hours ahead of my flight. I'm not high maintenance, and the room was clean enough for what I paid. The shower pressure was good as well. The staff were friendly. My big issue is that the fresh bottle of water they provided to me in the room was not sealed. When I called downstairs to the front desk, they said that they do not provide sealed water. This is a public health issue. As such, I wouldn't recommend this hotel.

Dear guest, We really know how important is to provide high quality water, that is why all the bottles of water in our rooms are completely sealed. And also the water we use in the kitcken comes like that. But there could be 1 or 2 that have a problem with the security seal as we recieve all in a sealed packaging from the store. We are really sorry for the misunderstanding. We are going to check them out. Thank you so much for you feedback! Regards, Daniella Medrano SM HOTEL & BUSINESS

This hotel was good. The staff was friendly, and the room was nice. It was very humid and damp in the room which was a little unpleasant. The room was clean and looked nice though, the beds were comfortable. We left early for the airport in the morning, and we arranged transport with the hotel for $15 USD which was convenient and fast. The hotel isn't exactly right next to the airport, but the area was a little nicer. Not somewhere you really want to walk around or hang out in for your trip in Lima, but if you're going to the airport it was only 15 min away. Wifi didn't really work well.
