Portada del Sol
Budget hotel within a 10 min walk of the central town square and across the road from combi buses to Chanchan and Huanchaco (1.5 sol). Showers hot, wifi good, basic breakfast (as expected), staff universally lovely. Room a little dated but provided everything needed. Very happy with my stay.

Hostal El Condado
This hostal was replaced with a Sunarp office some time before we got there and was not taken off the available hotels list for Trujillo. Very disappointed about that.
