Casa Andina Premium Cusco

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is gorgeous, clean, and modern. My only complaint is that the front desk staff, who checked me in, didn't have a solution for me when i asked where nearby I could park my rental car. Because of this problem, i ended up getting into a scrape and had to pay $400 to fix my car rental. sigh."
