I am a Halloween freak so I loved the atmosphere! Owner is great and gave lots of info on Cusco. I hope he had a good vacation...his first in 15 years! The place could be cleaner.

Stayed here only very briefly but Royal Frankenstein lives up to the rave reviews. The excellent owner Ludwig arms his guests with info including multiple maps and recommendations on where to eat.
