Arturo is kind and helpful, the roof top terrace is a great place to relax and it is only a 10 min walk from the main plaza. There are small shops close by for water and snacks.

A breakfast with a view

The Cabu Hostel is located within a short walk of the historic sights in Arequipa. The hostel is comfortable and the staff is gracious and super accommodating. The breakfast on the roof is a highlight of our stay.

Great atmosphere

Arturo is a most charming host. Breakfast on the sunny terrace, with greta views, is a pleasure. It's a short walk to the " Plaza de Armas " and all the comforts that a tourist is looking for.
