Arrived súper late and super tired, after a long day of exploring, checkin was smooth, rooms comfy, breakfast good. My only complain, no hot water. But I recommend the place anyways

Older dated hostel. They lost my paid hotels.com reservation but still honoured the reservation when I showed them. Close to the plaza.

Place could be ok, but staff completely ruin it
Staff were terrible in how they treat guests.
When I was standing in the door to get picked up for my tour of sacred valley any minute, a staff member suddenly demanded that I pack my stuff and change rooms because they need to paint it. They didn’t say anything about that the night before when I was paying for my stay in that room.
When I came back from the tour, they tried to put me in an 8 bed dorm even though I booked a 4 bed. Then he tried to overcharge me for the new 4 bed room even though the hostel sold me the room that wasn’t available.
Then they tied to overcharge me again on the exchange rate, even though their own website shows the prices in dollars and soles so the reservation says exactly how much you need to pay.
They advertise tours so I asked a staff member about one and he wouldn’t help me at all. The next morning another staff member explained and booked a city tour for me, however he told me the wrong information about the meeting point and the fees. I ended up having to chase the tour down, missing a part of it and paying a surprise fee almost as much as the tour price. He spoke perfect English so it wasn’t just a misunderstanding.
After this experience, I booked my next tour of sacred valley directly with a company and it was much cheaper (50 soles versus 75 through the hostel so they charge 50 percent more).
Also there are no shelves for the bunks so if you’re on too there is nowhere to put things except in the bed while you sleep. They don’t bother to refill the liquid soap containers even if you ask while they are cleaning. Also on my last night I was staying in the room next to the common area and asked a staff member about the music since it was past 11. He said he will tell the person to turn it off and never did.

My son and I were full of bed bug bites. I had only ice cold showers. Location was good but I would never stay here again.

I am surprised the ratings on this place were as high as they were. From our expereince, we thought the room and bathroom were quite dated compared to other hostels. Certainly wasn't the worst place I've stayed, but far from the best of hostels we stayed in.
Very good location
