    Nice hostel in an old building with a outdoor common area. It was cold in February so we needed layers (both in the room and common area). There were lots of blankets on the beds though. The breakfast staff were very nice. Breakfast included scrambled eggs and rolls and on some days there was juice (not every day though). Good location - 5 minute walk to the main square. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here (total 5 nights).

    The water doesnt run at some time of the days, and the room was super cold. But thats more likely to be the location issue?.. the snack pack instead of the breakfast option was a bit dissapointing but ok. :)

    Nice service, super nice food options and cheap! Great breakfast included in the price. Towell included in the price and we even got an upgrade for free. ❤️ Cat lovers will appreciate two cute cats 😁

    I can’t think of anything worth mentioning.

    There was a basic breakfast that was part of the deal, but it wasn’t enough. So everyday that I was there, I had their breakfast special and a fruit salad. That cost 16 Soles. —- I speak Spanish fluently, and I made friends with the staff easily. They were really nice people.

    Only one common space which was outside so was cold and loud in the evenings, and the smoking area was attached which was unpleasant.

    Very warm bedding, showers were always hot with good water pressure, hostel was clean, staff were very nice, appreciated the free breakfast. Excellent value for money.

    The location is great, but a bit uphill for me. For most people, it's not haha

    The staff were super nice to me. My dorm was clean and the bed was comfortable. I believe I took the 14-bed mixed dorm, but the dorm was massive and there was also a window in my dorm so it didn't feel stuffy and the air felt clean. The bathrooms were always clean. The food options at breakfast were good. Restaurant on site if you want to order food.

    Great location and nice staff. The accommodations are very basic.
    • Leisure trip

    • Double Room with Private Bathroom
    • Stayed 2 nights

    We stayed in a private room and it was extremely bare bones and not very big. Heavy wood front door and the only window was a small port-hole size window in the door (with a shutter that you can open/ close, but with a glass pane inside so doesn't let air in). The showers worked but did not have very good water pressure and we had to request to borrow a cleaning rag to use as a bathroom floor mat because none was provided and it was impossible to use the shower without getting the floor wet. Lastly, the music.. (to be fair this is true of many hostels we stayed at). For some reason hostels seem to thing tourists want to constantly hear EDMand lofi remixes of pop songs played over the loud speakers day and night. The music starts sometime in the morning hours and continues for a while, and then starts up again around 5pm and lasts until (a reasonable) 10pm. Sometimes they started out playing some good/ mellow/ spanish language songs, but it inevitably devolves into club music. My recommendation is to play some Peruvian music. We are visiting the country to experience the culture, not to listen to the same top 40 we hear at home.

    Staff was very nice and helpful with any questions we had. Great free breakfast included with the stay (choice of eggs/ toast, eggs and chorizo, avocado sandwich, and coffee/ tea/ juice) The hostel building itself (the communal area inside of the entrance) is not big but is pretty and there's a lot of historical photos on the walls showing old Cusco and also what the hostel used to look like. Great location for walking around Cusco's Centro Historico. Less than 10 min walk from the San Pedro Market

    No kitchen or fridge to store food or drinks, no outside alcohol allowed. But they do sell it for a little more than double from the store price. It the 14 person bunk room there is only 1 light.

    Hot water was hot and full pressure. Thebpeoplenstaying there were fantastic. The staff was pretty decent. The live music was very enjoyable.

    I really liked the all female 6 bed dorm, although it was a little affected by street lights and noise, but I had a weird bed in the larger mixed dorm, which was floating in the room and not against any wall. This made it hard for charging phones and not ideal for sleeping. The bar area was nice although prone to getting very hot in the sun. Showers were great.

    The stuff wouldn’t be that helpful sometimes but I guess there was a bit of a communication barrier. If you have heavy luggage, it can be challenging to take to the hostel which is accessed uphill by stairs.

Near street burgers carts, laundry and convenience store. - Basic breakfast included - Complimentary storage of our big backpacks while we went on 4 days hike. - Double room is spacious.
