We have used several apartments in Lima before and this is by far the best. The location is perfect, right there in the most beautiful park of Lima. Everything is walking distance: grocery store, the French bakeries, the best sushi place in Lima - Osaka- , the best Pisco bar - Bravo Restobar - , fantastic Cevicherias. There is always constant security in the area. The police in bikes was always monitoring the area. Lily was a great host. She was very nice and helpful. She immediately got us a crib when our pack and play did no work and also she was very kind to bring plug protectors to keep our baby safe. Lily, we will be back soon!! Yessica and Keith

The apartment is clean, bright, modern in all its equipment and facilities, very well maintained. Weekly cleaning and linen service was excellent.If anything needed fixing, Sra. Lily got it fixed immediately. She was always available, never intrusive. She was also available for tech support when her klutzy tenants needed help with tV remotes or cell phone subtleties. The cell phone that she provided was lots better than the kind available for rent at the airport. The apartment is nice, but its greatest strength is location. I could happily live in this barrio for extended periods.The street is very quiet, but it's only a half block from Conquistadores, which full of bustle, with lots of good restaurants and upscale boutiques. A half block in the other direction is El Olivar, arguably the nicest park in Lima. A promenade runs the length of the park, passing through the groves of ancient olive trees. There's a bustle, because lots of people use the park, but it's also very clean and well manicured. And safe. The whole barrio is blanketed by local police (serenazgo) on their bicycles, always courteous, patrolling day and night. For breakfasts and small meals, there are La Baguette and Don Mamino (think Panera Bread but with somewhat better food), 400 and 200 meters walk from the apartment, respectively. (The salads are super, the empanadas de aji de gallina to die for) For a supermarket, there's Vivanda (think Trader Jor's), also quite close. For a first class fish house (cebicheria), there's Punta Sal. There are also three Starbucks within walking distance from the apartment, and plenty of other places serving espresso. If you want to go farther afield, to the Maelcon or the center of Miraflores, taxis are abundant and cheap (about $3). I could go on. I love the barrio.

Good services

This apartment is a good choice. It is located near the romantic Olivar park and contains all the luxury a tourist might wish. Our apartment had two sleeping rooms with double sized beds, a bathroom, a nice living room and a kitchen with all luxury. It is very spacious. The only drawback is that it contains no balcony. But the owners are friendly and very helpful. Highly recommended!

We were very happy to see the flat, it was very clean, spacious and how lovely it was. We didn't miss anything during our stayed in your apartment Ms Lily and we have to thank you for all your kindness you have with us. We highly recommend this apartment, it is quiet and it is close to everything you would need. Once again thank you

We stayed for 10 days and so far its the best Apt. we've rented. Its on a very quiet street. No loud traffic noise...Able to get a good nights sleep. The apt. was also a couple of blocks from the grocery store with TONS of good restaurants within walking distance. Place was clean and Lilly is very friendly. Will def. rent again. Deborah D'Albora

This was a great place to stay in San Isidro, right next to the Olivos Park. Clean, comfortable and with good internet service. We could walk to any number of restaurants within minutes, as well as a supermarket, pharmacy, liquor store etc. Taxis are widely available right on the corner. Excellent as a home base for getting around.

The listing description was accurate regarding location, layout and amenities. However, it should be made clear that the oven is a table top one and as such, cooking possibilities are limited. The microwave is located at a height above most people's eye level - we had to move it to counter top to avoid accidents. With the provision of a microwave, it would have been better to supply microwaveable cooking dishes - one could heat a cup of liquid or a bowl of cereal but nothing else was possible. I would have liked to have had sturdier cooking implements - the egg turner, e.g. was very bendy and virtually useless. Corkscrew was broken. The TV and ancillary equipment should be checked, as on occasion, for no apparent reason, they stopped working - due to faulty/old wiring and equipment. From online investigation, we ascertained that our router/connection was the slowest and oldest in the building. The property was very clean and the weekly cleaners did an excellent job but were extremely slow. Over three hours to clean a two bedroom apartment! We did not have many occasions to contact the owner/manager but did so through emails. Promptly responded to. We were also notified about an absence for a week, with notification of temporary contact numbers. The listing states that the owner speaks Spanish and English. As far as we could ascertain, English was not an option. I would recommend this property. However, we feel that the bathroom could do with an updating. Throughout our stay, there was constant work going on in the building. While this did not intrude negatively on our visit, it was constant and we should have been warned prior to coming. That said, the work did not start early and was always over by 18.00 hours. The opening and closing of the garage doors was very noisy and was by far the most annoying and intrusive thing of our stay, especially as the first exit from the building was usually before 06.00. The property wasn't perfect but we enjoyed our stay. The entrance ways were always clean. We felt very secure. In a noisy city, the building was quiet, except for the last two days when new arrivals across the hall seemed to be unaware that sound carries in a "well" - with their children bouncing around after 22.00 and washing up at 00.30, they could have been more considerate. The street was usually quiet. All in all, a thumbs up!

Good location, safe, clean. Would stay again in the future. Merle Hatch Beaverton, Oregon

En español… Estuvimos 3 semanas en esto lindo apartamento en el tercer piso. El apartamento es muy amplio y está bien amueblado. También hay una conexión de WiFi de banda ancha que funciona muy bien. En la cocina hay de todo que es necesario para cocinar, lavar la ropa etc. Siempre hay agua caliente. El apartamento es limpiado y la ropa es cambiada una vez por semana. La casa está ubicada a lado del bonito parque "El Olivar" en un callejón/jirón muy tranquilo cuyo entorno está muy seguro. Se duerme bien en las habitaciones aunque las ventanas están abiertas. Entonces se puede oír piar a los pájaros en el alba. Dentro de unos minutos se camina a dos supermercados ("Vivanda" y "Wong") que venden más o menos casi de todo. En el ovalo Gutierrez que está cerca de la casa hay un montón de restaurantes y también un cine grande. El centro del conocido barrio “Miraflores” está bastante cerca y accesible por un paseo de unos 30 minutos a lo largo de la avenida Arequipa que tiene una vereda con un césped en su centro. La dueña del apartamento (Lily) es muy amable y discreta. Ella organiza el recogido seguro del aeropuerto también. Recomendamos este apartamento sin cualquiera limitación. Juan y Leon Merz. *** ... und deutsch: Wir hielten uns 3 Wochen in diesem hübschen Apartment in der dritten Etage auf. Das Apartment ist sehr geräumig und gut möbliert. Es verfügt auch über eine Breitband-WiFi-Verbindung, die gut funktioniert. Die Küche ist gut ausgerüstet, es hat alles zum Kochen, zum Wachen usw. Es hat auch immer heisses Wasser. Einmal pro Woche wird das Apartment gereinigt und es wird die Wäsche gewechselt. Das Haus liegt neben dem schönen Park „El Olivar“ in einem ruhigen Strässchen, dessen Umgebung sehr sicher ist. In den Zimmern schläft man sehr gut, auch wenn die Fenster geöffnet sind. Dann kann man die Vögel in der Morgendämmerung zwitschern hören. Innerhalb einigen Minuten gelangt man zu zwei Supermärkten („Vivanda“ und „Wong“), die mehr oder weniger alles verkaufen. Beim nahen Platz Gutierrez hat es eine Menge Restaurants und ein grosses Kino. Das Zentrum des bekannten Stadtteils „Miraflores“ ist ziemlich nahe und erreichbar in einem Spaziergang von rund 30 Minuten entlang der Avenida Arequipa, die einen Gehsteig mit Rasen in der Mitte hat. Die Eigentümerin des Apartments (Lily) ist freundlich und diskret. Sie organisiert auch die sichere Abholung vom Flughafen. Wir empfehlen das Apartment ohne irgendwelche Einschränkung. Hans und Leonard Merz.

Comfortable flat with all necessary appliances. Situated on one of the best neighborhoods in Lima, near restaurants, commerce and famous park El Olivar.

Muy buen apartamento a buen precio, todo lo que necesitas para pasar tus vacaciones o trabajo. Muy buena cama de matrimonio. Incluso la dueña te deja un celular durante la estancia. El baño perfecto y la televisión con cable para ver infinitos canales.

Muy buena ubicación. Departamento en buen estado de mantenimiento. Bien amueblado y con equipamento completo en cocina. Disponibilidad de WiFi y telefono movil. Muy recomendable

It was not the first time we lodged in this building. It is located in the heart of San Isidro, all kind of delicious restaurants and super markets are close to the building, very comfortable department, very clean, you have all you may need over there and if not... Sra Lily will always make sure you will feel at home. Great place, will go there next time.

We had a great stay. Lily arranged for a driver to meet us at the airport with a sign. The apartment itself is very clean with a washer and dryer. Once a week, someone comes in and cleans. The location is quiet and safe, but it was very easy to walk around Miraflores and Barranco or catch a bus to go downtown. Lots of good food and places to see in the area. There is a nearby grocery store for longer stays and the apartment kitchen is well stocked, although there is not a full oven, just a toaster oven.
