I had a wonderful stay at Hostal Iskanwaya! The morning breakfast was a great way to start each day—simple yet satisfying and thoughtfully prepared. The staff truly made the experience exceptional. Everyone was extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything I needed, from local recommendations to directions around the city. The location is also a major highlight—centrally located and within walking distance to great restaurants, shopping spots, and local entertainment. It made exploring the area so convenient. Overall, I highly recommend Hostal Iskanwaya for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-situated place with top-notch hospitality!

Great stay in l

Great hotel, next to the witch market. Do not expect a 5 star hotel with a lot of luxury but it had everything we needed. Good breakfast - great location and you can book your tours at the reception and change currency at the hotel
