This hostel is simply amazing. The room is simple, but I liked it. It was kinda cozy. Bathrooms have hot water, and you can use small kitchen. It's around a 15-minute walk to the historical center and even less to the market st. Camilo, where you can buy a lot of staff. But what is really extraordinary is the helpfulness and kindness of staff. They helped me with everything I needed and even more. Don't be afraid to organize the trips around with them. It's really worth it.

I didn’t eat breakfast. It was right beside an historic Franciscan monastery, close to the plaza des armes, a stones throw from a huge craft market an a ten minute walk to Mercado Camille which is a real mind blower. There’s a beautiful rooftop lounge with a view of a large volcano, a solar clothes dryer, view of the monastery, A kitchen with wasn’t even advertised and a little coffee/snack bar open most of the day. I booked a tour with colca trek right around the corner. It was fabulous. Anything you need is in the commercial center, a beautiful 20 minute walk away. There were two staff constantly cleaning an welcoming guests. There was a balcony! It was tastefully decorated. There was hot water. Two tables, two chairs, a clothes rack and a funky night stand.

We were not sure what to expect when we booked this budget hostel at its low price. It was much better than the previous hotels we stayed in that were quite expensive. We had a queen room on the roof top floor with access to two full bathrooms, kitchen, dining area and fridge. The bed had the faded mismatched sheets, but they were the absolute softest ones I've crawled into! We arrived very tired after a not so comfy overnight bus at 0530am. The manager Daniel was so kind, he gave us a room as soon as we arrived to rest. He helped us out a lot with directions, activity suggestions, and even told us where to go to get a sim card for 5 Soles for 5 days. We had prebooked a Colca Canyon Tour and left at 4am before breakfast was served, but Daniel had a bag with fresh bread, butter and jams ready for us to take on our way! The location was perfect, right beside the main square where all the activities and tours meet ups take place. Walking distance to the market as well. I had already booked our activities ahead of time, but David suggested so many more things to us. I guess we will have to go to Peru again:) Activities we did (and recommend): -Sillar tour -Full day colca canyon with hot springs -San Camilo market (try the queso helado ice cream) Activities we didn't get time for: -monasterio de Santa Catalina -free walking tour -ice maiden @ Museo Santuarios Andinos -panoramic bus tour from main plaza -rooftop restaurant along the plaza at sunset -Pillones waterfall

The breakfast was delicious with fresh papaya, orange or pineapple juice, fresh fruit, eggs, sausages, artisanal bread, tomatoes, cheese, ham, olives, cake, cereal, yogourt, butter, jam, coffee and tea. The king suite on the third floor had a great view on the Misti Volcano, was spacious, clean and warm. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was quiet and a 6 minute walk to a main lively central street with restaurants, shops, malls and street food vendors.

    Peruvians are very nice people but Hilda is simply the best. With a big smile, always willing to help. Hostel in a great location, close to an excellent restauracja , with the possibility of leaving your luggage during trekking in the canyon, with a wide range of excursions and the possibility of doing laundry. If you don't need the standard of a top hotel, this is the place for you. Muchos gracias Hilda!
