Such a lovely place! The staff were super friendly and accommodating. It’s in a perfect location, just a short walk from the San Pedro Center. They even let me stay a bit later after checkout so I could rest before my flight—so kind and thoughtful. Highly recommend!

An easy, no frills hostel that made the first part of our time in Cusco enjoyable. The hosts were very nice and while the room was basic, the private room with bathroom was really all we needed.

I am surprised the ratings on this place were as high as they were. From our expereince, we thought the room and bathroom were quite dated compared to other hostels. Certainly wasn't the worst place I've stayed, but far from the best of hostels we stayed in.

It is quite unbelievable that you get such value these days, especially at a tourist hotspot. Hot showers, WiFi, free breakfast, comfortable beds, booking airport transfers etc. They even hold part of your luggage for you if you are traveling elsewhere for a short visit and don't want to lug everything! All for $10/night. If you want full privacy, this is not for you. Else this is a no brainer!

数日前にクスコ到着時の送迎をメールで依頼していたのに手配されておらず、空港からタクシーで向かいました。レセプションで確認しましたが、やはり手配されていませんでした。メールでの遣り取りは一体何だったんでしょう？ 部屋は綺麗でしたが、夜中にトイレに行ったら水が流れず、水道の水も出ませんでした。朝には解消されていましたが、一体なぜ？いろいろと納得いかないことがありました。

Rooms were cleaned each day and shared showers and toilets were nice and well kept. Breakfast was simple bread and jam.
