My stay here was exceptional, mainly due to the great hospitality of the owners, who are both very warm and kind people. Romulo has a passion for history and gave me an impromptu guided tour of the very nearby Inca trail and some key sites along the way. The location is excellent, within walking distance of downtown Cuzco but above all the noise, right next to an important park with the Temple of the Moon and other historic sites. My room was large and comfortable, breakfast was great, I was given a hot water bottle every evening. Highly recommend!

The hosts were simply amazing. Very friendly and always ready to help their customers. We booked all our tours with them which simplified everything a lot. Soul comforting breakfast which was always brought to the room with a smile regardless of the hour. Their kid was a cutie pie. We felt at home.

Best hostel i’ve stayed at (and i’ve stayed at many). Super clean, beautiful, nice atmosphere (calm and serene in most common places but fun and lively at the bar area). So nice that they give you a breakfast box if you have to leave in the middle of the night for tours. All staff members were so nice - Monique and the guy who worked the reception in the night during my stay (forgot his name) were especially friendly and helpful!

One of the best hostel where we stayed in Peru. Position is perfect, less than 10 minutes from the main square and 2 minutes from the main market. The host Josè was very kind and super friendly, he makes the difference and makes you feel to be in a family. Breakfast is good and we met a lot of interesting people from different countries. Rooms are clean and there is also a common room for watching tv. Finally there is the possibility to store baggage for free.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great service, super welcoming, nice breakfast and the perfect budget hostel. Its surrounded by cheap food options and a 5 min walk from the main plaza. Cheap and cheerful. Kevin is really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Not a party hostel, so be aware, but still had fun and a few nights out with the staff and guests!
