Anyone been there? Have two days available to explore and enjoy. Any recommendations from my Ag friends?

Yes. Miraflores area is very nice and we found a legit boutique hotel for about $90USD a night there. Best seafood I've ever had at multiple restaurants although I can't remember the names right now. Just do a google search and multiple world renowned restaurants show up. One in particular was Japanese/Peruvian inspired cuisine that would serve table side sashimi right from a whole tuna.
The exchange rate, atleast a few years ago, was very favorable where a 5 star meal will be equivalent in price to a normal ****ty chain restaurant meal in the states. Other than that, there are ancient ruins to check out that are cool, nice people, and really not many gringo tourists. Not really a party place or beach town, but overall an enjoyable trip where you won't feel ripped off or underwhelmed.
Edit to add:
Belma Boutique Bed and Breakfast for lodging
Maido and Central are musts for dining.
