"The staff were very nice."

"For me personally, Lima is beautiful (and Peru in general). The climate is perfect for me and I really like the friendliness of the locals and their willingness to help with anything and everything. And Peru is a very interesting country, you can spend half a year exploring the country and you won't learn everything. Very interesting! The food is amazingly delicious!"

"Chaotic bus traffic, as many providers operate the transport network. It is annoying that horns are honked day and night. Also the honking of taxi drivers hoping for a ride with the gringos. Cabify is a great app for ordering a taxi, and it's great that the price for the ride is included. So you don't feel ripped off. Unfortunately, there are few cultural events in Lima. The tourism centres are not staffed or only have a lot of brochures from a few providers. No real incoming tourism."
