Don't believe everything on website!
In alleyway, which made it difficult to find. Staff was great! Only thing is that website says there is a game room. This is not true. When i asked about the game roo, i was told that thete was none and its really just table games... Talk about false advertisement.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel staff were exceptional (I believe the manager's name was Meridian). Very helpful with arranging tours and providing tips and recommendations for sightseeing in the area. The price was also fair.

Clean and affordable
Hotel came with a great free breakfast (eggs, bread, coffee, and tea). Room was very clean but the shower water stayed pretty cold. Near the Plaza de Armas but away from most of the rowdier hostels, this was a good location for a clean, affordable room. Not luxurious, but perfect for a stopover for two twenty somethings in route to Machu Picchu.

Good location
The people who work there are great and it is in a central location. If you pay in card you are charged an extra 10% which I wish I knew about beforehand.

Cheap, close, safe
The service was great, despite the language barrier. It's not a great hostel, don't expect much--but it's safe, clean, incredibly cheap and near where the main square in Cuscos.
