The best breakfast in Peru
A delightful place. Nice room in an historic building and the best breakfast we had in the whole of Peru: the formidable lady in charge of the restaurant was really keen that we had a nice meal. A pretty good location - about 15 minutes' walk from the main square but you wouldn't want to be any closer in than that, probably

Liked: Cleanliness
The physical location in an old traditional house is great. Food was awesome. Rooms needed more places to store or hang clothes. Biggest negative was bathroom. The steam from the shower would accumulate and condense in the skylight. Then it dripped on you as you stood at the sink, brushing teeth, washing hands, etc. As a result, it had a very dank, unpleasant smell.
