Don't believe everything on website!
In alleyway, which made it difficult to find. Staff was great! Only thing is that website says there is a game room. This is not true. When i asked about the game roo, i was told that thete was none and its really just table games... Talk about false advertisement.

The hotel staff were exceptional (I believe the manager's name was Meridian). Very helpful with arranging tours and providing tips and recommendations for sightseeing in the area. The price was also fair.

Clean and affordable
Hotel came with a great free breakfast (eggs, bread, coffee, and tea). Room was very clean but the shower water stayed pretty cold. Near the Plaza de Armas but away from most of the rowdier hostels, this was a good location for a clean, affordable room. Not luxurious, but perfect for a stopover for two twenty somethings in route to Machu Picchu.

Good location
The people who work there are great and it is in a central location. If you pay in card you are charged an extra 10% which I wish I knew about beforehand.

Cheap, close, safe
The service was great, despite the language barrier. It's not a great hostel, don't expect much--but it's safe, clean, incredibly cheap and near where the main square in Cuscos.

Affordable, great location.
This is a very basic accommodation located just a short walk from the main plaza. There is nothing fancy about the place, but it is a clean, safe place to sleep if you will be out on tours all day. I stayed with my family and it was perfect given that we were visiting Maccu Picchu and the Sacred Valley and were not looking for a more upscale place.

muy bueno
Solo estuve una noche, las habitaciones son estrechas y es un largo camino en las escaleras con maletas, PERO, las camas son super cómodas, buenas almohadas, AGUA SUPER CALIENTE, el mejor WIFI de cuzco, mucha amabilidad de quienes nos recibieron y el desayuno muy bueno!!! Queda en un callejón que nos dió la impresión de seguridad, pero es cerca a la plaza de armas, como 4 cuadras y es un gran precio para el sector.

ロケーションはいいが…
ロケーションはよかったのですが、部屋がとても寒くシャワーを浴びることを躊躇うほどでした。ヒーターを貸してもらうようお願いしましたが、有料とのことでした。また受付の方は全く英語が通じなかったので、なかなか部屋に案内されるまで時間がかかりました。スペイン語が話せない場合は苦労することになるかと思います。

Buen trato
El hotel es una casa que ha sido adaptada con cuartos, puede mejorar la infraestructura, arreglar la puerta del baño, colocarle luz. Al ser una casa si es más acogedora y los chicos que atendieron muy amables y serviciales. Sería también conveniente que indiquen si se cancela con tarjeta se cobra un porcentaje adicional.
