Everything! Jenny and her family are amazing hosts. The hostel is in a quiet part of cusco just 10 min walk to the main square. A mini market and nice Italian restaurant are also close by. The rooms are huge and the private bathroom too. Everything always spotlessly clean (and even a daily tidy up which was a nice surprise). The breakfast is generous and delicious, served in your room or you can enjoy the alfresco area. Laundry service is well priced and all was returned clean and in full. Jenny speaks perfect English and has lots of knowledge of Cusco. Always ready to help in person or by WhatsApp. We stayed here three times as we based ourselves in cusco. Highly highly recommend.

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.

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.

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!
