"The entrance and lobby of the hotel were beautiful ! The room that we had was not well maintained, the shower curtains were broken and taped and the light in the room kept glitching... The staff is super friendly and helpful breakfast box for early check out was super !"
"Qema is a fun little spot to stay in Arequipa! The common areas are surprisingly spacious, with a quirky, slightly whimsical vibe that gives the place lots of character. The private rooms are small, but comfortable enough, especially since you’re out exploring most of the day. The shared bathrooms were perfectly fine, too. It’s about a 5–10 minute walk to the main square and tons of restaurants nearby. A great little home base for a few days in Arequipa!"
"Great location. Great breakfast bar and superb attention to detail. Customer service was good, very pleasant people.
Will stay again upon my return to Arequipa."
