AnaIt’s not a 4 star hotel. It’s an affordable, comfortable and clean pit-stop before or after the climb to MP. My 3 kids and husband slept comfortably.
Verified travelerHelt OK hostel
Bra läge borta från stadens oljud, men observera att rummets ytterdörr samt väggar är lövtunna och allting hörs igenom.
Helt OK frukost.

Verified travelerOne of their staff met us at the train station and escorted us up the hill to the hotel. Our room was fine, walls a bit thin but lots of people make noise early trying to catch the bus to Machu Picchu.
Verified travelerVery nice location. Excellent staff that helped us with luggage and other requests.
KrisBeautiful location at the top of a busy street of restaurants and shops. Lots of steps, but close to the Hot Springs and gorgeous views from our window. The room itself was clean and big enough to fit my family of 5.…
