Un accueil au top ! Mama a la main sur le coeur et s'applique à vous régaler au petit dej

Very close to the airport, handy for an early morning flight!

Great breakfast and lovely staff, we will be coming back in a couple of weeks

Owner is a really nice and welcoming Lady Who gives Tips how to get around Town. She lend me her Bus card. Very basic but very nice Breakfast and coffee, Perfect for getting to and from the airport. Has a nice roof Terrasse. Very clean

Lovely hosts! Friendly and homely atmosphere. 10/10 excellent location for an early flight, only ten minutes cab journey to the airport.

There was nothing to dislike. Everything was spot on.

The place itself is very good but it's the people make it excellent. Mama is a beautiful person with big heart. Papa makes the best bread in Peru! We stayed here 3 times in a two months period. Delicious breakfast served every morning, big kitchen where we could make our food but also great and cheap vegetarian restaurant just across the street. Common area is super spacious and cozy. Mama also let us to leave our luggage there when we left to the coast. Everything was beautiful and easygoing. We highly recomment Mama Backpackers!!! <3

A hostel like a hostel should be. Welcoming, helpful staff, beautiful common areas in and outside and an awesome breakfast.

This hostel is exceptional! The common areas are so beautiful with murals, comfortable seating, canaries, cooking area and much more Mama herself is so warm hospitable and helpful. It is very easy to feel at home here.

Well, the neighborhood is not that great, but it's so near the airport, which is good. If you want to be near the airport in Lima this what it's like. There are good restaurants nearby. The hostel itself is very safe and Mama will help with taxis etc

The best hostel on our whole trip - mama was so welcoming and helped us with several issues. Also the breakfast was really good. We loved our stay, thanks mama!

Great communication before my stay.The place is so comfortable; including beds, common areas and and cooking facilities. The most amazing benefit is Mama herself. She is a great source of information, very attentive to the welfare of guests and very near the airport. Highly recommended!

Well, nothing really. The neighborhood is not great, but that's because it's near the airport. Safety is not an issue if you just take taxis, which Mama can help with a lot. Will definitely come back there while passing through Lima.

After two weeks of traveling around Peru we were happy to stay in a non-touristy part of town 15 minutes from the airport. Mama was so welcoming and it felt more like you were staying at your grandmother's house instead of a regular hotel. Her hot is spotless and she is always checking in with you to make sure that you are OK. We chose this hotel based on the proximity to the airport and reviews about the hospitality. On the way there, our taxi driver from the airport told us that it was a bad neighborhood and offered to get us a better hotel near the airport. This is usually done so that the drivers can get commission from the hotel. The area doesn't look like Miraflores or central Lima but it is full of locals, plenty of markets, and tons of restaurants with an amazing Venezuelan restaurant across the street. We didn't feel unsafe and walked around the neighborhood a few times, just use your street smarts! I would recommend it to anyone that needs a place to stay close to the airport. Gracias mamá!

It was a great place to stay!

Really friendly and helpful staff, amazing breakfast and nice common area. Close to airport which was good for arriving early morning. Nice vegan/veggie restaurants within walking distance.

Very far from centre of Lima

Mama's was great! The staff were friendly, courteous, and very hospitable. Breakfast was made for our convenience and we were treated to a special Christmas Eve feast. Posted throughout the hostel were writings from previous guests with artistic embellishments bt Mama.

The neighborhood was in rough condition with lots of trash on the road and sidewalks. We didn't venture far from the hostel but Akzo didn't need to.

Mama was lovely. Very kind and helpful. The breakfast was great and we slept like angels. Always again.

Loved this property. It was fun and unique - it was very cheap, and a good value. The restaurant across the street and like one block down was amazing.

The hall light was automatic and there was a window above the door with no blinds, so if anyone walked down the hall, your entire room would light up.

Mama, who runs the hostel, is really friendly and helpful. breakfast was the best we have had in ages and the hostel is exceptionally clean. the showers aren’t very powerful but the water is hot. wifi was also good. the only downside was the location, it’s safe but quite far from central Lima and other tourist areas however Ubers are cheap and a plus side is the hostel is closer to the airport than other areas.

showers not very powerful location not great

Mama Backpackers is a wonderful, family-run hostel, not far from Lima airport. We appreciated a warm, hospitable atmosphere of the place. The owner, a lovely, very welcoming lady, was available in case of any questions. The place was cosy, quiet and clean. We were also served a nice homemade breakfast. Definitely recommended for a stay in Lima, especially if you're looking for an authentic, less touristy district and/or if you want to stay closer to the airport.

Best hostel I never ever lived ! Super nice hostel in Lima ! We will back there again when back to Lima !!

Probably the nicest people you have ever met and a very comfortable stay for a great night sleep. Nice common area too. Mama is incredibly caring and her house is lovely. Answered any questions, offered water as soon as I arrived. It was no trouble to look after my suitcase for 4 days while I went to iquitos. Also her husband woke up at 3am just to make sure I got my early uber to the airport and let me know when it had arrived so that I wasn't standing outside with my phone waiting. The location was superb for me for both plaza norte bus station and the airport. Both ubers from there were about 8 soles. I can't recommend this place enough. Phenomenal

Nothing. It was excellent.

Mama is the best, my fiancee got sick and she gave him some medicine. In addition to that, the breakfast was excellent. we had a variety of options.

I'll say the weather in Lima, but regarding the hotel everything was fantastic!

Mama is so nice, really helped us. We did check in around 2 am. The breakfast is good, you get eggs butter, jam, and a fresh orange juice.

The location is a bit far from the center. The shower isn't good.

The breakfast was delicious and the host was friendly and sweet. We reached the hostel very late and had to leave early the next morning. The hostel is very clean and comfortable.

None

Everything was perfect. Mama is a lovely host, who really cares about her guests. We felt like home.

Lovely chill area on the top floor and nice kitchen. Helpful staff. Close to the airport

It's in a rough area

Antonella was so nice and very accommodating! Breakfast was so far the best of all of the hostels I have stayed in. and of course, THE CATS!

I did not get to say goodbye to the cats.
