The hotel is located right at the gate of national park. It's quiet with a beautiful remote view but still able to stroll down to the city through inca trail which is a walk we all loved. We lived there for a week, and all got underweather with food poison. Our hosts, romulus took care of us like family, helped with medicine, cooking and changing our itinerary with flexibility. We loved our stay there, relaxing in their garden with a herb tea from their own grown.

I had a wonderful stay. Even though I had some altitude sickness the host helped me with it. I also was able to organise a very nice and cheap excursion through the host.

First, the people who work here are so friendly! Sheila was absolutely wonderful with making me feel welcome and providing advice and assistance. Also, my private room was so comfortable, with a big bathroom and a heater (which is so nice to come back to when it's cold and wet outside!). The whole hostel is beautiful and they provide activities for guests to participate in. I only got to do the free walking tour and pisco making class because I was so busy doing all the incredible things Cusco has to offer, but both of these were fantastic. The daily yoga classes looked very peaceful and lovely and I wish I could have participated. They have coca tea and coca leaves available for free for guests in multiple spots around the hostel to help guests deal with the altitude. The location is great, convenient walking distance from everything and very close to the Plaza de Armas, which you HAVE to spend time in during the day and at night - it's so pretty! It gets quiet at 10pm every night so you can sleep. They cleaned the room every day.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little 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!
