Chic & Basic was my favorite stay during my 2 1/2 week trip in South America! The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. The breakfast is very nice, with options for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Good hot coffee was available at all hours, which was a godsend! The best part about the stay was the staff - so friendly and helpful, with plenty of recommendations for cute coffee shops and spots to walk around. You're also close to all the best of Barranco - shops, excellent food, and bars. I cannot recommend this stay highly enough for the minimalist traveller who wants a great experience without breaking the bank!

Nothing :) It was all great!

I cannot rate this small hotel highly enough. The location is great at the top end of Barranco, near great restaurants and bars. The breakfast is fantastic, you can chose from a variety of healthy options and are able to eat in a small peaceful external courtyard. The rooms are quiet and the internet excellent. The manageress is extremely helpful, she managed to change our tv system, so my husband could watch the UK Rugby! She gave us great directions and recommendations. She also arranged for us to rent bikes which was a wonderful way to explore Barranco and the neighbourhoods around. The rooms are spacious and everywhere is extremely clean. The whole place is inside a courtyard so it is quiet. Highly recommend.

There was some noise from a neighbouring room but I think that was because the windows were open. There is no aircon, but the temperature was pleasant and we had a fan in the room.

The price performance ratio is very good. The staff was great help and always welcoming with smiling face. Breakfast was freshly made for us. It was basic but satisfying and delicious. They have 24/7 service for coffee/tea and drinking water. The room was clean and basic amenities were provided. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet despite the window was open. Hotel is located in a lovely area

3B is Brilliant!! A perfect place to stay in Barranco! The hotel is comfortable, simple, modern and very well designed. Elizabeth at reception was always very helpful and attentive and made us feel at home - her recommendations for places to eat and visit were excellent! Everything in Barranco is an easy 5-10 minute walk from the hotel. The breakfast is fun and delicious. All day coffee and water is available from the lobby.

Wonderful reception staff who go above and beyond. The rooms are small but very clean and comfy with everything you need. The location is good - cafes right outside and about a 10 minute walk to the bustle of the centre of Barranco. The hostal is super safe.

The windows are single glazed so during the day/early in the morning you hear quite a bit from the street. The breakfast lady seems unhappy.

- Very friendly and helpful staff. I am so happy they kept my baggage for 5 days & always welcomed me with big smiles. - Great location, centrally located in Barranco area, surrounded by cool art galleries, cafes, restaurants etc. - Great breakfast - Very well-equipped room, with steady hot shower and super clean 🧼.

Felt like the price was higher compared to the other B&B or AirBnB apartments in the area.

It's in a very convenient location. Across the hotel is a former president's residency which is now a steakhouse. We walked inside, and the staff showed us around to see its past glories. We could also easily walk to the older neighborhood which is very Boheminan, and there are plenty of interesting old buildings and street arts. The room was not big but cozy. They also provided a heater since it was cold. The breakfast was simple and the fruits were nice. The staff were very friendly. They also provide bicycle too.

There wasn't anything I didn't like about the property except for the guests who made a lot of noise when they arrived very late at night.

A great location to explore Barranco with super easy access to nice restaurants and artisan shopping. Clean rooms, excellent beds, superb water pressure on shower and a nice simple breakfast. The staff was helpful and we got a take away sandwich breakfast when heading to a trip before the breakfast time. We got to leave our staff at the reception while exploring the city before our departure. There's free coffee and tea at the lobby, much appreciated!

The soundproofing is a bit so-so but all in all we slept very well.

I am so grateful for the help and support by the ladies at reception. They spent literally hours on the phone with various airlines/airports/consulates and chatting to us to try and figure out next steps regarding all our flight cancellations and airport closures etc. They also upgraded our room at no extra cost! This is seriously well run and we are beyond grateful for the time spent helping us (and the good humour along the way)! Thank you so much!!!!

Perfect location in a perfect neighborhood. The friendly staff were available 24 hours, and went out of their way to meet every travelers' needs. Clean and modern, great breakfast included, museums and parks all around. I would recommend it highly to anyone traveling to Lima.
