“There's a familial atmosphere created by the staff that's really striking. Close to local markets and less touristy restaurants, it's well-located without being in the thick of the main square crowds, which provides a more genuine Cusco experience. The building has character, from its stone stairs to its courtyard, and the hot showers are a welcome treat.”
