    The windows don't close well so you can feel the wind and it gets cold at night. A little bit more of amenities like soap in the bathroom would have been great but it was a fair price.

    Location was very convenient, only a few minutes walking to the train station but also to the city center. It was clean and the staff was kind.

    We paid on the way out, and they charged us extra to use a card (somewhat typical in Peru, but most hotels didn't add on an extra charge for using a credit card). She also increased the price by a few soles on us. (I didn't notice this at the time, but my wife caught it later).

    Beds were comfortable and shower was good. Place is clean and fairly updated and in a good location - close to things, but not overly noisy. Breakfast was decent.

    We had some issues with windows and curtains not closing fully, and the shower was moldy. It was comfortable enough, but pretty bare bones.

    Very centrally located, easy to get to the main plaza, the ruins, and the train all within a 10 minute walk. The owners were very kind and accommodating.

    Can get a bit noisy in the mornings, as the hotel is located next to the road leading to the train station, so from 5 am on every 15-30 minutes, several buses pass to bring the tourists to the train.

    Hotel is close to Ollantaytambo center and ruins as well as the train station. Rooms are clean and comfortable. They serve breakfast. Staff was friendly and helpful.

    Price and overall everything were nice, but i have to admit some négative points: - very basic breakfast - no heating in the room, so cold floors and you have to sleep under 2+ blankets - hot water only in the shower, not in the sink - constant noise from nearby river - sometimes there are nobody at réception But again it's ok.

    Nice family hôtel very close to Ollantaytambo train station, so you don't need to walk much in the morning if you go to Machu Picchu. Close to center area as well. Room with the perfect mountain view. Very nice and helpful personnel. Clean room and bathroom.

    Additional pillows and another chair would be nice. We don't speak Spanish so communication with host was more challenging.

    Location backs onto river with view of mountains and fields. Room is large with windows out both sides of building. Breakfast was breads with jam, eggs, coffee and tea. Bathroom was good. Great price for basic accommodation.

    The room wasn’t cleaned after the first day and be aware of mosquitoes (not the fault of the property).

    Decent hotel for the price. Well worth the stay.

    If you do not want to spend a lot of money staying in this small town while you're traveling to or from Machu Picchu, this is a great option. The hotel is right between the train station and the small plaza square and is the least expensive option that we could find that was decent. The so tell us for more of a younger traveler that don't need or expect much and just need the basics.

    Cleanliness could be much improved. The room has lots of ants apparently as in the morning they were in all my things. The bathroom was not throughly cleaned either. The toilet was especially dirty. We did inform reception about the toilet and they immediately apologized and cleaned it.

    The location was convenient for taking an early morning train and the main plaza was only about 300-400 meters away. The price was also good.

    It was cold in the winter season. Don't stay here if you cannot bear 10-14 degrees Celsius in the morning.

    It wasn't too far from the center, but we had some trouble finding the building, since it was changed since the images they shown here. The room was basic, but faced to the ruins which was spectacular. Some people might not like it, but I liked that the river was right next to the building, so we kept hearing the flow.

    We stayed in several cities in Peru, and the most common thing I noticed was the traffic and dog barking noise throughout the night and this place was no exception.

    The property was clean and spacious, perfect for a family of four and had a private bathroom. Our room had mountain & ruins view and there was a small river next to the hotel. Prime location, with the plaza and railway station just a few minutes’ walk away. Good breakfast , We had to leave early in the morning for Machu Picchu, so the host thoughtfully packed a to-go breakfast for all of us. We used laundry service at the hotel and it was good.
