Cheap hotel in central Aguas Calientes

We found this hotel to be very dark and run down. The one window in the room faced into the hall, so we had to keep the curtain closed. The bathroom had mold on the shower mat and felt very dirty. Overall it was not a nice hotel but all we needed was a place to sleep before heading up to Machu Picchu. They did let us store our luggage in a secure area while we were in MP. However, next time I would probably just spend a few more dollars on a nicer property.

O Tayta Hostal foi muito atencioso, desde o checkin ao checkout. Para nossa surpresa, o gerente do hotel falava português fluentemente e nos deu ótimas dicas sobre o local.
