Affordable, friendly and perfect location

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Perfect location to walk to the square. Affordable. They have a small breakfast with toast, freshly made eggs, ham, cheese, bananas, juice, and coffee. Coca and muna tea was always available, which was really nice when we got in. Fresh towels. Very quaint, full of character and the breakfast area had a view and small patio.
I would recommend using WhatsApp for communication.

They had no records of my reservation. When I arrived at 8:30pm, the front desk said all rooms were booked and I would be unable to stay the night despite physically showing my Expedia reservation on my phone. Instead, they told me they were having ongoing problems with Expedia would be unable to room me for the night. When I asked how long they had this problem (because I booked weeks in advance), they stated this was an ongoing issue with Expedia and indicated that they have not attempted to resolved it. Additionally, they did not help me find alternative accommodations and I had to independently locate and walk 3 hotels on my own to find a last minute rooming situation. I would strongly not recommend booking with this hotel due to their prolonged technological issues and poor resolution strategies. I am now seeing previous reviews that this has happened in the past but I didn’t think this would happen to me. Good luck if you book with this hotel.

Terrible experience

Arrived for check in late at night after hiking for the prior four days, only to discover that my reservation was cancelled. I had not received any warning or notice of this change. It was extremely inconvenient to try to find taxis and a place to stay at 9pm last minute. I believe the hotel is not charging me for my stay; however, they should also owe me fees for taxis and the difference in hotel fee that I had to pay for that evening.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. We had a room with Mountain View and it was lovely to wake up to that view every morning. The bed was comfortable and there were lots of storage space for our stuff in the room. The room and bathroom were very clean. We liked how they would come make up the bed, change our towels, take out the garbage and tidy up our room every single day. The breakfast provided was not a lot but just enough. They always had hot water and coca leaves or tea available for their guests, As for the staff, they always greeted us with a smile and tended to any request we had.
We have had bad experiences with hostels before and was very hesitant to stay in a hostel again. We booked this place because it was a good price. We arrived there with low expectations but this place exceeded them. We recommend staying here, and we would definitely stay here whenever we go to Cusco again.

It would be nice to have more than one towel, a towel to step onto out of the shower, as well as some basic toiletries in the bathroom such as shampoo, conditioner and soap. Also the breakfast is super simple and only consists of bread and eggs—would be nice to have fruit and yogurt.

Pleasant but chilly accomodations in Cuzco.

I visited the hotel in Cuzco's \"winter\", and it's cold - really cold - in Cuzco. The hotel doesn't have central heat, but relies of using small oil filled space heaters. One will take the chill off the room - a little bit - but it's still very cool in the room, and the window, at least in my room, was drafty. The bathroom sink has only one tap - cold. That's the bad part.

The good part is that the shower has hot water, the bedding is warm, and the place is clean. Oh, and the location is hard to beat. The hotel is just a short uphill walk from the Plaza de Armas in Cuzco. It's only the uphill part that's the hard. The owners were helpful and helped arrange two tours for me.

Would I stay there again? Probably not. I think I'd want to stay in a place that's warmer, but if you are a trekker and have plenty of warm clothes, the price is right, and the accommodations are clean and the owners are friendly and helpful.

Nice stay in Cuzco, Peru.

I traveled to Cuzco with my niece and overall was pleased, only a few glitches. The positive is that our hostel paid for our taxi from the airport. Our room served it's purpose, a bed to sleep and a private bathroom, and coffee/tea, toast in the mornings. Nothing fancy but it is a hostel. Alvaro, the (owner I think) was always very helpful, he helped us to order food for delivery one night and also call a taxi as needed. In terms of amenities the room was not always \"cleaned\" it was just tidied up, but that was fine. Our sink had no hot water and on occasion the water would shut off but it would be turned on as soon as we would let Alvaro know. The location was very good, just about 7 minutes from the main plaza. It was a bit of a hike, but not bad at all. I enjoyed my stay here and was really able to experience Cuzco and I enjoyed it. I visited Cuzco to explore the city and everything else that I could in 10 days and would come to our room only to sleep and shower and then do it all over again the next day.
Overall, it was a nice experience. I recommend it.

Short walk to Sacsayhuaman & Plaza de Armas

Not luxury but neat and clean. Completely in line with the good price. Good location if you want to get up early and walk to Sacsayhuaman before the crowds get there. A 4-5 block walk to get down to Plaza de Armas. Also, the most exclusive school in Cusco is just across the street. Not many restaurants close by but Kusikuy Restaurant is just down the hill and down some steps. They specialize in whole guinea pig. I didn't try it (takes about 1 hour to prepare) but what I ate was good. I asked a couple who had tried the guinea pig and they said it was good.

Nice common room- uphill trek to the hotel

It was a bit of an uphill walk from Plaza des Armes to the hotel, Jose Almaru speaks good English and is hospitable. The other man and woman does not speak English, and they were there to greet us. The room and bath are very small- ie you cannot sit on the toilet with your legs forward. Hot water was good. The TV room and balcony are beautiful, for breakfast, which was also ample, and buffet. The bedroom next to the reception tends to be noisy, but convenient. Coca tea provided all hours.

Noisy, but clean with hot water

Booked two nights here, but had to leave after one because it was close to a number of churches that were firing off cannon shots every hour throughout the night to celebrate independence day (so we are told). Besides that, the rooms near the entry hear every doorbell ring (as the guests don't have a front door key), and every check in. We didn't get any sleep and left for another location and had to forfeit the cost of two rooms for a night. The hotel staff person was friendly (no English speakers at the desk though), the beds were okay, each room had a space heater, and the showers were hot. Didn't make it to breakfast because we were so tired.

Esse hotel foi escolhido a partir da aplicação do filtro: estacionamento grátis. No entanto, após indicarem o local para estacionar o carro não informaram que seria pago. Ao retirar o caro tive que arcar com os custos sem estar preparado para isso. Há informação de estacionamento grátis na apresentação do hotel não é verdadeira. Tentei argumentar com o hotel, mas o proprietário afirmou que não sabe como essa informação foi incluída. Ou seja, sai no prejuízo.
