Liked: Lovely views of Cusco from outside the rooms - you can see over the rooftops of the whole town. The staff were very friendly and helpful - helped book our bus to Cusco. There is a tour booker on the second floor of the hostel who speaks perfect English and is very helpful. Free coca tea, free breakfasts in the morning. Kitchen for communal use. Leisurely walk to the main square in about 15mins. Good distance from some nice restaurants and cafes, shops and pharmacies. Great value for money too.
Disliked: Nothing - HOWEVER, be warned, go prepared for the altitude. The hostel is high up the San Blas, which is a lovely location. But it does mean you might suffer from altitude sickness. We didn't go prepared at all, so felt quite ill. So I would strongly advise taking altitude sickness tablets before you land in Cusco, and taking them while you're there. Make use of the fantastic free coca tea at the hostel too. But don't let that put you off the hostel, because it is a lovely place to stay. Well worth the height!

Liked: Well located about 10 minute walk up the hill from the main square. Friendly and helpful staff working the front desk and making breakfast. In fact, on my last night when I had an early flight the next day, Mario even offered to go out at night to buy bread so he could make me breakfast at 3am before I left. Great place to meet other backpackers without a noisy environment. I would stay there again.
Disliked: James helps you book tours from the hostel but his prices seemed expensive.

Liked: Helpful and friendly staff picked us up from airport despite a three hour flight delay. Offered to make breakfast for us at 445 AM Before we left for a trek. Quiet location away from car traffic. Great view of city. Always have hot water, coca leaves and tea available.

Liked: We liked this hostel and the people were very nice. Très jolie vue sur Cusco de la terasse, chambres mignonnes, avec chauffage central et eau chaude, un endroit simple mais chaleureux qui rappelle un peu les chalets de montagne. Les propriétaires sont adorables!

Liked: Having stayed elsewhere in Cuzco we found Sami Wasy to be very good, they looked after our bags whilst we did a Machu Picchu trek and were very helpful after we had checked out to get to the bus station. The Breakfast was lovely (great coffee!) and the staff were all very nice and helpful. I only wish we could have stayed here longer.
Disliked: Nothing
