There are 4 flying dog hostels in the Miraflores area. This review is for the one next to the Diagonal on Rua Olaya. The location is great, right next to Parque Kennedy and Parque Central in Miraflores. So you have to bear in mind that it's busy and you'll be woken up in the early morning by traffic. Breakfast is... more

The hostel itself was barely livable. The sheets were not long enough to cover my bed so I'd wake up on the nasty mattress with no barrier between me and it. I shower in the evening and barely had hot water for longer than a few seconds--otherwise it was lukewarm. My friend had no problems in the morning with hot... more

Compared with the other hostels we stayed at in Peru (in Puno and in Cusco) this was tops. We tried a suite, not the dorms, and the bed was super comfy. The room in general was much bigger than I had hoped for. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was hot with good pressure. We made good use... more

The location at Kennedy Park is a must. Near from restaurants and Miraflores Nightlife, taxi at the door, very clean (i´ve got the suite), wi fi access freeee and friendly staff. more

I stopped by this hostel on my last day in Lima. After spending more than 9 hours on an overnight bus, I just needed a place to crash before catching a late night flight. I didn't really need a room, so for 15 soles (like 5 bucks) they offered me a safe place to store my backpack and full access... more

Having arrived into Lima after many many hours travelling (bus 8 hrs and 2 by plane) we arrived at The Flying Dog only to be greeted by a warm and festively friendly face, Neto. We didn't realise that we were actually booked into another Flying Dog (across the square) but we were given a room and the booking transfered over.... more

this hostal actually has 4 locations all 1-2 blocks apart around parque kennedy. i stayed in one of the smaller ones - a green building (hostal is on the 2nd story) near pizza street on parque kennedy. you can either go to the main one (address: Diez Canseco 117) and see where they have room or check right in to... more

I arrived in Lima as a previous stop for Cuzco in early august. I didn´t expected very much of the city, but was a nice surprise... if you are looking for inka ruins and typical andean landscapes... then you are wrong here. Lima is more a modern city, with perhaps the nicest people in the whole southamerica and a great-great... more

I stayed at the Flying Dog for 8 entire months while I volunteered in Lima. It is a wonderful, unique, safe, clean place. The hosts are all wonderful and speak fluent English. They will go out of their way to make sure you have a good time in Lima. Ask them anything, they will know the answer or help you... more
