So we arrived in Arica at a decent time in the afternoon following an overnight bus from La Serena. The hostel we booked was nice and the hosts were really helpful a guy from Newzealand and his wife from Chile.

    Don't be fooled by the drab outside, this hostel is amazing! The owner is English speaking (from New Zealand) and is full of stories and advice. Rooms are nice and the common area is clean. They also serve all you can eat breakfast.
