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 hostel is a short walk from the main plaza. There are a lot of great restaurants nearby. The staff was really helpful with helping me schedule a taxi and find a laundromat. The shared room is really nice - you still get some privacy with the enclosed bed.

Really cool place, pool table, ping pong table. Really friendly staff, they have a laundry service for a little extra. They provided us with a packed breakfast one morning because we were leaving very early to do Rainbow mountain tour.

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!
