We stayed 1 night at upcycled hostel and actually wish we had more time to spend longer! The room was nice but the best features are the outdoor area with pool and seating. It had a really cool vibe to it. They serve breakfast which was nice and we ordered some food for lunch which was tasty and big portions. Wifi worked well.
Its a short walk into Huacachina (about 15 minutes max) and I’d say worth the walk to save the money on extortionate prices of hostels in Huacachina.

Really cool hostel

Decided to stay here for an overnight while we stopped to see the Oasis as the other hostels were full. The staff was more than helpful and the food here is very good. The grounds and rooms were well kept and clean.love the chill vibe. Basic comfort worth the value. If you want night life and to see the dunes it's a 4 soles tuk tuk ride or a 25 min walk. 

Just right 

Excellent place. Clean and comfy .
Beds are made every day, the staff is extremely helpful and the food is delicious.
The pool area and the big garden makes it a perfect spot to relax after the tours..
The bar has great appetizers, must try the Milanesa it's delicious.
Very spacious rooms and clean sheets every day..

The best hostel I've stayed in Peru

Such friendly and helpful staff - Lorenzo, Abraham and the whole team are lovely. A hidden gem. Good pool, good food, great communal areas with stylish decor. It’s 10 minutes walk from Huacachina, which is close enough but gives you a break from the touts and hawkers. Would absolutely recommend! 10/10

You must stay here!

I'm not keen on staying at hostels, but this one really fulfilled my expectations. Great place to spend some time away from the crowded areas of downtown. My husband and I are so thankful to all the staff and owner since each of them was pretty nice and kind at all times.
 
If you are looking for a place where you can relax, have a good time, and feel safe 24/7, do not miss this cool hostel.
 
The atmosphere, food and drinks, tours, and staff made our stay enjoyable. I will definitely come back.

Lovely place

It was my first time in Ica, and this place made my stay go smoothly.

My wife and I were welcomed with a smile and great coffee. Even though check-in started in the afternoon, we were able to get into the room earlier without problems. The owner and staff were always helpful and kind.

It's a cool place very near the Oasis, just walking distance. The tours offered were good. Food and drinks in general are really tasty too.

Cool atmosphere, Nice staff

Cannot recommend this hostel enough! 
The staff were so friendly and accommodating to all our needs throughout. 
The breakfast is simple but very tasty and although they don’t have a kitchen the restaurant food is delicious and reasonably priced and is open throughout the night. 
The hostel itself is not in the centre of Huacachina oasis but only a 5-10 minute walk away so not a problem. It is also only a 5 minute TukTuk from Ica. 
The hostel was quiet when we stayed but I think that is due to the wild rover hostel in the centre and I think this has the potential to be just as popular. 
Loved loved loved 

Cannot recommend enough!

The hostel is nice, lots of places to sit and relax. It has a pool and bar. The food is pretty average and some items on the menu were not available. The breakfast which was included was very basic, just bread and eggs, juice and coffee (the coffee was very bad we couldn’t drink it!) It is a 10-12 minute walk to Huacachina oasis which is fine but we would have preferred to stay in the main area of Huacachina. Even though the hostel was sold out, there were never any people around the bar in the evening so it felt quite deserted… and even though there was no one around, there was still really loud music playing until 12am.

Good clean hostel, chilled atmosphere

Cool and comfortable hostel, a great atmosphere and very chill. The hostel provides a pool and a bar, and also food made by the kitchen, which is fine, but not a highlight. The hostel has also a stage for performances by outside artists/performers and individuals who are not part of the occupants at the hostel may pay and come to see the performanes. For that reason even though this is regularly a very chill hostel you might find yourself sleeping with a whole music show outside.

Cool place

INSANE hostel. So beautiful with great views of the dunes, an incredible bar and lovely pool. Staff are so so friendly. Room was very comfortable and great value for money. An absolute must when staying in Huacachina, only a 5 sol journey away.
