Reviews of Maison verte - Guest House 2 stars

Nice 2-nights stay in the guest house. No problem with the toilet outside the room - private, only 2-3 steps outside the room. Great communication with the staff. They prepared small breakfest to takeaway, when I went both the mornings to trip tours at 6 am. I could leave safely my baggages in the reception after check-out. Very close to Plaza de Armas. Many money exchanges with great rates just around the corner.

friendly and helpful staff. nice room. best breakfast I had in this price range so far.

the bathroom had no ventilation at all, so you had to leave the door open. perhaps there is room for improvement

I arrived late at night, and it was clear that the staff was not pleased to check me in at that hour. Early the next morning, renovations began in the hostel with loud banging and grinding, filling the entire place with dust. The breakfast was very minimal and disappointing. The only positives were the location and the fact that they allowed me to adjust my booking from three nights to just one. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Great location, though very noisy at night Nice terrace for breakfast. Good breakfast

My room had a private separate bathroom. The bathroom was very dirty, not cleaned after previous guests at all (they cleaned it after I mentioned). Moldy walls in shower. Mattreses and pillows are super old and all yellow and dirty, very hard to sleep. The place itself is noisy because it’s a hostel, but moreover all the noise comes from outside and doesnt stop at least before midnight.

Location

It's located close to the central town square with many tourist attractions. The bed was comfortable enough and place was clean.

Very noisy, but well located. The rooms aren't very sound proof and you need to ring a bell in order to be let in. This means that people ring the bell throughout the night, causing lost sleep. I suggest the owners provide a WhatsApp number for people to contact between usual sleeping hours (10pm-7am). Also, people chatting in the reception from 5am will wake you up. My room had a leaking tap with a constant, high-pitched "eeeeee" sound that drove me to insanity. Only hot water in the bathroom. Breakfast is very basic. For a vegetarian, you'll get toast, cheese, jam and instant coffee. Room is not serviced daily.

Position, price, staff

In walking distance to everything you wanted to see Paid for an early check in

On a noisy road and the windows weren’t sufficient so very loud at night Room / bathroom wasn’t cleaned over the 4 days/, had to ask repeatedly for more toilet paper. In Latin America when dirty paper is put into the bin, I expect it to be emptied every day. Wi-fi was terrible and didn’t work in the room

I love the breakfast. The staff was great. Location is perfect, 1 block to the main square.

You don't have free access, you have to use the doorbell every time. If you arrive late, you may have to wait for minutes until they open de door.

Great location, very close to the centre.

Terrible room layout with bathroom across the corridor, all very old and shabby - no early check-in so there was a long wait.

If tired, you could still enjoy a nice meal in the rooftop restaurant.

Just 1 minute from Plaza de Armas. The location is amazing! Quiet place. Really secure.

I liked the girl in the restaurant and the dinner menu, as well as the centric location. The room was beautiful and spacious with a great shower.

The breakfast to go wasn't really a breakfast and the first day it wasn't ready on the time of our departure. Restaurant hours could be a little more extended. The receptionists were much colder than in the rest of Peru.

Very good location and the terrace overlooking the Plaza De La Armas was beautiful, especially at sunset.

The room was small and dated, the shower leaked and the staff weren't very helpful.

Fantastic location :) Very kind and helpful staff :) I used Maison Verte as my base in Arequipa on my first visit to Peru, a 3 month journey. They provided very secure storage for my luggage, as I took the 2 day journey up to Colca Canyon to see the Andean Condors. I stayed at Maison Verte both before and after that journey. The nice interior design elevates the common spaces. I chose Maison Verte from the list of affordable lodgings served by the Peru Hop shuttle vans. My arrival with Peru Hop was in the very early morning hours. Maison Verte allowed a 5:30 am check-in for a half-day rate. Very fair. Very much appreciated. After a nice rest, I was amazed to discover that I was staying only 1/2 block from Arequipa's beautiful white stone central plaza. Had a wonderful time sitting on the sunny benches and engaging with the friendly and curious Arequpians :) Absolutely ideal location !!! :) Access to the rooftop terrace is only for the breakfast hours, but I did go up for tea and dessert in the restaurant there, to catch the sunset views. Maison Verte's rooms are small, but functional. Very hot showers; a great plus :)

An attractive older building, like most in this area, showing some deterioration with time.

The location Breakfast terrace

The bathroom facilities - as several time mentined, quality of bathroom facilities is very poor. On top of that, the water from a sink was constantly droping! No sound isolation, you can hear everything from the hall as well from ouside, weekends are loud outside, take your earplugs!

Breakfast: Good Quality and quantity. Very fresh juice.
