Communicating with the staff (once the owner left) at night was difficult due to our inability to speak Spanish. So we couldn't figure out how to ask for the doorbell to be turned off near the guest rooms. This means that every half hour or so, until about 3:00 am, we were woken up to people needing to get in (since even those already checked-in had to ring the doorbell to gain access). That made the next day very difficult, since we were leaving at 5:00 am for our tour. Some maintenance issues could use some attention. The TV was not hooked up, the hot water in the shower never worked because the valve in the bathroom is broken making for some very cold showers, and one morning there was no cold water, either, so we were glad we brought our hand sanitizer. After our tour of Machu Picchu, the doorbell issue was taken care of, and the cold water worked again. But we never got breakfast because, by refusing Coca Tea and Coffee, I think it was assumed we didn't want juice or bread or anything at all, which made for some very hungry mornings. Honestly, it's my fault for visiting a Spanish-speaking country without confidence in Spanish, so mea culpa. But next time, I will pay more and stay at a hotel that caters to foreign tourists.

The owner, who always called me "my friend" is super helpful. His English is good, and the experience was positive. The room we had was spacious, and the en suite bathroom was nice to have. The owner arranged a taxi for us back to the airport that was less than half of the price we paid for an Uber from the airport a few days before. The location is good, with some great restaurants just a 5-minute walk away. The main business district was about a 10 minute walk away. The rates were low enough that when I booked an overnight tour to Machu Picchu, I didn't feel the need to check out and take everything with me to Agua Callientes, so the prices were excellent.

WiFi is great in lobby area (and is a great place to chill) but gets a bit temperamental sometimes in the rooms.

WOW. Amazing place. A stones throw from the central historico with all the main sites, but the accomodation is in the building behind which means it's super quiet and peaceful. Rooms aren't modern but they are very clean and bed is comfortable. Courtyard is a great space to relax. Breakfast is tasty, eggs, juice, bread, GOOD coffee. But above all the hosts are wonderful! Super kind, hospitable, friendly people. Loved our stay here.

It's a budget option for that great neighborhood of course. The rooms we're a bit humid and the shower drain was clogged so the water stayed in for quite some time.

We had a briefing for the Inca trail, and they received the guide well whilst we weren't there yet. The rooms are in the back, so very quiet but still perfectly in the beautiful San Blas area. When my mum lost her way coming to the hostel , the owner didn't hesitate one second to go out on the street with his little baby on the arm to go and look for her. He was also incredibly flexible with the checkout hour and keeping the luggage for a bit. Breakfast is simple but good.

My partner got a food intoxication while we were staying there (not due to the food of the hotel) and Luis provided all the support you could hope for in such a situation. We were allowed to keep the room longer and he helped us a lot, would definitively recommened this place with a unique sense of hospitality.

I found many antes in my toilet. Small ones and in the wall, so did not really bother me. Bear in mind that I did not even mention this to the owner, so I did not give them the chance to find a solution, I am sure they would have tried.

Very gentle and friendly staff. They were very nice and helpful with my late check-in and early check-out some days later. Helped me get an early breakfast and storage some bags while away. Location is good in front of San Blas market.

Very calm and quiet place. Perfect location. Very supportive and friendly owner

Very calm and quiet place. Perfect location. Very supportive and friendly host. There is a beautiful small garden, where you can have your breakfast in the morning. The rooms are very cozy and comfortable. The host was taking care of us all the time, advising about places to visit. He also gave us a chance to stay longer and work from there. Very good value for money! On my next trip to Cusco I will stay there again. Thank you!

Maybe internet was a bit weak after 00:00-08:00.

Service. Both Luis and partner are always available anytime to the guests.

Would be nice to have clean windows, more light in the room, hooks in the room, fix the direction of the shower head, mow the beautiful interior garden to show up the beautiful hidden flowers that are covered by the grass.

The staff were so kind and genuine that tried to make us feel comfortable in that little place. As Luis said, they are still recovering and reactivating from Covid 19, so for the price of this place you have the basic commodities in your room. Luis and Erik were kind to provide us hot water to fill our thermoses every day and also a hair blower. Across the hostel there is a local market where we found fruits, little local food stands with delicious dishes for lunch and breakfast so affordable for staying in Cusco.

Thé place is quiet and near the market.

The room was very cold so it was not comfortable to spend time there. However, there are blankets so it was warm enough to sleep still.

The hotel owner is very friendly and the rooms were clean. Good value for the price you pay.

Excellent service. The host is very kind, friendly and welcoming. He prepared a rich and delicious breakfast for us and allowed us to leave the luggage in the room until we came back in around 1pm. The property is very good decorated and just next to a local market where you can enjoy local foods with good price. Room is cozy and clean.

Staff and location

Stayed in April 2023

We got to the property of Luis on the 26 of March and ended up staying until the 15 of April. The property has a nice seating area inside and a great seating area outside as well. We took the triple room which was spacious, clean and cozy. The property has a great market in front, where we would eat breakfast and lunch, buy fruit and in general walk around. The property is also a nice short 10 minute walk to the main Plaza de Armas where there are many shops, restaurants and alpacas as well! Also I would like to note that Luís was attentive, nice, and helpful as a local living in Cusco. In addition to this, we went for a trek for four days to Macchu Picchu and Luis allowed us to leave our belongings in a storage room which we greatly appreciated. He gave us great recommendations of things to do and places to explore, eat, and travel. If I ever come back to Cusco, Luis and his property is my first option for sure!
