It was a great basic place to stay for a few days, we stayed here for a few days before and after our trek! They were able to hold our luggage as well. Only complaint was the water was not the warmest.

Las Tres Abuelitas

Really wonderful staff and great location for our last two nights in Cuzco! Hot water somewhat problematic but staff's response was swift if not totally effective. Great breakfast and spotless kitchen which we did make use of!

Great Value. Good Location

This was a nice hotel. Clean. Relaxed atmosphere. Good location - reasonably close to the Plaza de Armas. Showers were hot. Continental breakfast was nice. The staff was very friendly. They went out of their way to help me revise my travel plans when the road to Puno was closed due to a strike.

Decent hostel. Good for the price.

Overall, pretty decent hostel. We had issues with our check-in. We booked a sale price for a family room (sleeps floor). We accidentally clicked two people in the search, but made a note that there would be four of us. They did not want to honor the price when we arrived. We negotiated a compromise, but it was still frustrating. The rooms were fairly decent. Pretty standard hostel. The shower was mostly hot, but had random spurts of cold and low pressure. Pretty solid location to the plaza for the price.

Okay I suppose

There was a problem with cleanliness in the shared bathrooms but that was more to blame because of some unruly guests.

nice hostel at a good location

The room was very clean and they cleaned it daily. Top service. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We could left our package at the hostel during our trip to machu picchu,that was very helpful. unfortunately,our reservation for the same room after our trip dit not work, although they confirmed the reservation. there was no private room available for the night, but they were obliging and ket us sleep in a dorm for free. mistakes can happen, in my opinion that is good customer service!

Close to all must see sights.

English speaking, helpful and friendly staff. My private room was quiet, big and clean. The place is charming, cozy and in a good location. Breakfast was good. I cannot ask for more for the price I paid. I couldn't believe I was picked up by the hostel. Taxi from the airport to the hostel was also included in the rate. I spent 3 nights there. I definitely will recommend all my friends to stay there. I loved it.

The staff seemed to be new. When I checked in, she couldn't find my booking. When I checked out, he asked if I haved paid. There are only 2 bathrooms for so many dormitory guests. There isn't a commune room, people cram in the room, not so comfortable. Breakfast is good: cereal and milk, bread and jam. In total, just an average hostel.

L'accueil à été très positif, cependant, le personnel ne parle pas anglais et a du mal à situer les lieux d'intérêt sur une carte. Malgré une chambre propre, il n'y a pas d'eau chaude dans la douche après 4h du matin, l'eau est alors glaciale.

Bom custo benefício

Hostel bom ,perto da praça das armas,mas chuveiro foi a única coisa não muito boa , era difícil acertar a temperatura, ou esquentava muito ou ficava frio, e teve um dia a noite que faltou água a noite!

Hotel limpio y comodo

La estadía en general estuvo aceptable, no hubo toallas de cortesía, la zona es tranquila y cerca de la plaza de armas. Hubo un error y nos dieron una habitación triple pero se regularizo al segundo día.
