It was a perfect stay just as advertised. The hostel is right on the platform, so get off the train straight into the hostel. It's a hostel, so it has all the basic needs and is very clean. The service is excellent, with the owner very accommodating. Their breakfast was great. They let us eat longer since we had two young kids with us, and they slept in late. They held luggage for us for after checkout too. Great stay overall.

Property is very conveniently located for visiting Machu Picchu. Nice view of the river from the room. Lots of insects were able to get in the room in the evening despite the windows being closed. Staff was very friendly & helpful. I received a bag of snacks to take since I left early for MP
Irma was the best!!! Since my wife and I got there she made us feel so comfortable. It's not a 5 star hotel but the attention to ensure that you're comfortable beats any 5 star hotel. We visited in late October so did not experience the mosquitos from other reviews. What we did experience was the view and the sound of the water flowing in the river. Some people pay to have this sound when falling asleep. The breakfast, the coffee, the assistance on where to go eat, the convenience, even giving us a poncho in case it rain during our Machu Pichu adventure and if we didn't need it just bring it back (no charge). These all made the staying at La Payacha and incredible experience. Thanks again Irma.
Es un lugar hermoso, a la orilla está el río con una vista hermosa. La atención es excelente, la dueña y sus hijas te atienden de maravilla además de tener un desayuno listo a la hora de subir a Machu Picchu. Lo recomiendo ampliamente y siiii volvería

Disliked: Room comfort
La ubicación del hostal es perfecta, está frente a la estación de trenes, me dieron una habitación con vista al rio lo cual me pareció precioso, muchos se quejan del sonido del Río o de los trenes a mi no me molestó. La habitación es limpia, lo que no me gustó fue el baño que cuando le bajaba el agua burbujeaba en la regadera y cuando me quise bañar el agua caliente salió por un minuto y después salió agua HELADA, me tuve que bañar así. El personal, jóvenes pero muy atentas, sin embargo los desayunos no los sirven a partir de las 05:30, volvería? Tal vez

O hotel é super limpinho só o chuveiro q a água quase não saia quente, também não tem secador de cabelos isso precisa. A localização é excelente e o café da manhã maravilhoso.
I stayed in this hostel one night. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My room had the best view of The Urumba river. The only call out is that the pillows were not the most comfortable, but it’s a hostel so don’t expect a 5 star hotel. It was very clean and walking distance to Peru rial, the bus to Machu Picchu & numerous restaurants. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone who is saying short term to visit Machu Picchu
El hostal es sencillo, limpio y justo lo que necesitábamos para pasar una noche en Aguas Calientes antes de subir a Machu Picchu temprano en la mañana del día siguiente.
Es cierto que el tren pasa justo al frente de algunas habitaciones y al otro lado del hostal se encuentra un río vigoroso y ruidoso. Pero eso no impide dormir bien.
Queda cerca de la estación del tren y de los buses que llevan hasta Machu Picchu.
Lo volvería a utilizar.
Really enjoyed our room by the river. Wonderful river noise all night long.

Correct
Un hôtel très simple mais très bien pour le prix. Un petit déjeuner à emporté proposé pour partir visiter le Machu Picchu.
État général un peu moyen mais pour quelques heures ça passe.
Personnel amicale sans plus, nous sommes rester 2 nuits sur place, la chambre était tres très humide, elle donnait sure la rivière, beaucoup de bruit. Au moment de payer la responsable à arrondie le prix final à la hausse en me disant que c’était une promotion !!! Très déçu de l’ensemble.
Le petit déjeuner continental est correct
