Casa de la Gringa in Venice, Peru

This place has a great atmosphere, is clean and secure.The staff was friendly and helpful and accommodating.My only complaint is that it is FREEZING, they have limited space heaters for rent, and, at least in our room, the electrical outlet was dangerous.We did finally rent a space heater to keep the room at a tolerable temperature, and the outlet didn't fit the plug tightly, and it kept on sparking and making little, tiny flames.It burnt the area around the plug and was definitely a fire-hazard Savannah, from USA ~ 15th Jul 2011

Good Place, near everyting Juan C, from Colombia ~ 3rd Jan 2012

We're not surewhat people are complaining about when they say this place is cold and doesn't have heating. Firstly, you're in South America so if you want a temperature controlled room, I suggest you stay in a hotel, not a hostel. Secondly, it wasn't cold in the rooms. Rug up. Use common sense. The staff were really lovely, the cooked eggs every morning and endless coca tea was massively appreciateed. The location is great. Less than a five minute walk to the main square but nice and quiet so yo jacqueline, from Australia ~ 9th Sep 2011
