Spacious and Comfortable

I stayed in a huge room with a lovely view of the city. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to rest after a long day of exploring. The room was also kept spotless and had all the amenities I needed for a cozy stay. It truly felt like a home away from home.

Delicious Breakfast

Every morning I enjoyed a delightful breakfast with a variety of healthy options. The food was fresh and perfectly prepared. They even offered breakfast early when I had a tour to catch, which was a lifesaver. This attention to detail really made my mornings special.

Hot Showers Always

The hot water in the shower was always plentiful, which is a must after a day in the chilly Cusco climate. I loved that they had good water pressure and everything was clean. It was a pleasure to relax in the bathroom after my daily adventures.

I had a delightful stay at this charming hotel tucked away on a quiet street. The ambiance was lovely, and the hosts were incredibly accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, and the spacious bathroom with consistent hot water was a bonus. However, while the internet was decent, it may not be the best for those needing a strong connection. Additionally, be prepared for some nighttime dog barking, which is quite common in the area.
