This is definitely a spot for a spring break kind of crowd. A couple days before check in, the property did mention that the partying would go on until 1 am on weekdays, 2am on weekends, but by then, it was too late to book elsewhere else. They gave out earplugs, it’s that loud. It’s right in the center of all the action. If you’re looking for more comfort amenities, Ica is a better place to look. Sandy floors, hard beds, bad lighting

Lovely hostel in Huacachina, though it felt more like a hotel. The entire town is loud, but this felt like the least loud option. Ha! Simple, but lovely, clean, new rooms. Happy with our choice and would stay again!

Nice and clean, but no TV and very loud during the night. It's good for young people, not recommended if you want to relax or if you go to bed before 12am even 1am. They have game every night that's why is too loud.
