“Clean, safe, nice and friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

The staff (Joseph, Camilo and all the girls) is very friendly, this is surely the best hostel I've ever stayed in. The price is good and so is the breakfast. They even prepare a bag with some food for those who leave the hostel before the breakfast time. The only thing that can be seen as a problem is the long way upstairs to get there from the Plaza de Armas, but for me it was not a big deal. It's good to make some exercises sometimes... :)

Room Tip: The "Alex" room is excellent, it is very quiet because it is located in the backyards. Ind...

“well looked after place with friendly staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

We stayed for four nights with a trip to machu picchu in the middle. Lovely building and very friendly staff, felt very much at home. Good location close to central square, though up a steep hill so not great if you have fitness problems. Would definitely stay here again.

“Nice little inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

We stayed in the Mateo room. It was very small, but since we were only there for sleeping, it held our family of four with no problem. If you travel by taxi, have the taxi drop you off at the Iglesia San Cristobal. It is much easier walking down the steps than up, but we also had no problem walking up the steps with a few rest stops. The internet service is slow, so only use it for brief checks. (Be careful to avoid accidentally pushing the power button on the floor with your shoes.) The staff was great and aided us in printing our LAN boarding passes. Breakfast was enough to hold us, but we ate more down at the Plaza de Armas. The staff also held our luggage so we could explore the city before our flight. Overall, it was a nice place to stay.

Room Tip: Mateo room if you are a family.

“Wish we could have stayed longer!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

We spent four nights here either side of doing the three night Inca trail and loved the place. We felt at home immediately - lots of space in the rooms as they have nice built in wardrobes and a desk.
Simple but quality breakfast, fast wifi, good hot water, spotless rooms, very secure, nice communal areas (rooftop especially beautiful!)
The staff were very helpful and patient with us - they looked after our luggage when we did the 4 day Inca trail and it was waiting in our rooms when we got back. When we left Cusco we took the 10pm night bus to Puno, and they let us use all their facilities at the hostel until then which we thought was very generous.
King sized bed - two singles joined together - was a bit uncomfortable but other beds might be better.
All in all a fantastic choice in Cusco! Thanks again for having us!

“Recommended, but watch your step!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012

This was the 3rd hostel we stayed at in Peru. The place is spotless, with very helpful and friendly staff. The only slight negatives was the bare bones breakfast and the few sketchy ( and slippery! ) streets you need to cross to get there.
