Pas un hôtel mais chambre chez l'habitant...

Une seule chose est bien réelle, c'est la gentillesse de l'hôte et du gardien. Pour le reste, j'ai été assez agacée de découvrir qu'il n'y avait pratiquement aucunes des descriptions pour lesquelles j'avais choisi cette chambre. Le petit déjeuner en buffet, s'est révélé être servit à table, (donc pas le choix sur ce que l'on mange) un sachet de café avec de l'eau chaude, du lait, du pain, du beurre (salé...), confiture, un morceau de fromage ou avocat (le lendemain)et un jus de fruit, la cuisine est celle de la famille qui n'est pas franchement ouverte à tous, la super terrasse sur le toit est vide avec un barbecue qui a du servir dans une autre vie. Un café, un restaurant, une cafétéria, ça par contre c'est carrément du grand délire. Il y a une salle avec une table de billard (payante) un tapis de sol et une jolie cour intérieure, point barre. Je rappelle qu'en réalité ce n'est qu'une guesthouse basique. Donc bien mais pas à ce prix là ! Beaucoup trop chère car avec ce prix nous aurions dormis l'équivalent de 3 nuits à qualités égale. Même si l'emplacement est bon, ce n'est justifié.

Très bon emplacement mais bruyant

Les propriétaires sont très gentils (difficile d communiquer en anglais), possibilité de laisser les sacs pendant quelques jours (par exemple pour un trek au Colca). L'hôtel est très bien situé, à l'angle du monastère et à 200m de la place d'armes. Notre chambre était propre, mais peinture laissée à l'abandon (un bout de plafond m'est tombé dessus dans la douche :) ). Mauvaise insonorisation (mais comme dans beaucoup d'hôtels au Pérou) et il y a un bar dans la rue donc c'est bruyant... Impression mitigée

Pésimo servicio. habitación muy ruidosa

no recomiendo este hotel !!!! La habitación daba a la calle y el ruido no deja dormir. Además toda la noche entra y sale gente. No había papel higiénico ni jabón en la habitación. El desayuno es malísimo. Es un hotel extremadamente costoso con respecto a lo que ofrece...
