Amazing hostel with excellent facilities, comfy beds, fun activities and super friendly staff. Pape, at the bar, was especially great at creating an atmosphere (getting people to try "Pariwana bombs"). It was quiet enough in the rooms downstairs to sleep despite the music which was cut off promptly at 1am regardless (earplugs are provided). All the staff were super helpful and friendly. You could buy anything from shampoo to M&Ms to vapes at the front desk which was useful. The laundry service was quick and well-priced. Out of all the activities, my brother and I especially loved the salsa class and flip cup tournament. It was super easy to meet people but the party vibe didn't feel overbearing - more friendly and easygoing. I highly recommend!!

Rómulo and Helga were so helpful throughout my entire stay - they personally picked me up from the airport and dropped me to the bus station. Rómulo was especially helpful by leading me personally to the bus terminal where we realised it was the wrong one - he drove me and dropped me personally to the correct one! I would have been lost without him. They always checked on me and made sure my safety (being a solo traveller) was a top priority. They organised all transportation I needed for tours, and provide their own private tours at a competitive price. The property is located in a quiet area within walking distance of many lesser known Inca archaeological sites, notably the Temple of the Moon which is a 5 minute walk away! Rómulo brings all the guests here when they have a chance, and shares his extensive knowledge of Inca/Pre-Incan history. The area is great for hiking and a short walk (approx 15 mins) downhill to San Blas. The rooms are gorgeous, clean and comfortable, with hot bottles provided every night during the cold season. I would definitely recommend this place for first-time travellers to Peru and solo travellers who might be anxious - Rómulo and Helga will definitely put you at ease and make your stay an enjoyable and memorable one.

All hostels in Cusco

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.
