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.

    The family that worked there was always on hand to help. Good central location and nice breakfast. Room was good enough for what we needed and we understood that this was a budget style room for the area. Shower was powerful and always had hot water.

    Got to stay in a room alone at a very cheap price. The room was of good size. The staff were friendly and kind and caring. They kept my luggage while I was up on the Machu Picchu.

    The bunk beds are comfy with a privacy curtain, a lamp and power point. The dormitory had its own shower and toilet inside the room. The hostel is nicely decorated with a lot of beautiful and colourful murals. The staff at the reception was really nice. Breakfast was simple and not much, but just what you need for an early morning start. There free tea all day. The location is by the river on the small square.
