Good value

It’s a good value for a short stay and is close to the plaza. The only unpleasant experience was with an older lady who acted like we bothered her when we asked for hot water in the evenings. The young people who work there were very responsive when we asked for hot water.

Elena and the rest of the staff are very welcoming. Rooms are clean and spacious and the beds are comfortable. Highly recommend adding the breakfast option - fresh juice, fruit salad, tea or coffee and buns with jam and butter. Laundry service and bag storage available as well. We spent 3 nights here and would return again, if in the area.

Like--Close to town, Friendly, helpful staff, comfortable bed, good wifi, good breakfast. Not like--In order to get the hottest water, the water must be turned on at low pressure. My lower body was freezing as the top was being washed. Also, thin walls-I could sometimes here others talking or using the bathroom. One day of my four day stay, I didn't get breakfast at the agreed on time (7:00 am).

Schlechter service und Ameisen überall.

Zu Beginn gab es direkt Probleme, da da Hotel kostenloses Parken ausgelobt hat, vor Ort davon dann aber nichts wissen will und mich zum Bezahlparkplatz ein paar hundert Meter weiter schickt. Man spricht kein Wort englisch, was okay ist aber das Bemühen simpeö auf spanisch zu kommunizieren war auch nicht da. Ameisen im.Zimmer, vor allem am und IM Bett, sehr laute Wasserleitungsgeräusche ab 5 Uhr morgens alle 20 Sekunden raubten mor beide Nächte den Schlaf. Mini Waschbecken nur mit kaltem Wasser.

Un perfecto lugar para alojarse en Ollantaytambo

Aunque sólo pasamos una noche en este Hostel, podemos estar seguros de recomendarlo para cualquier viajero que pase por Ollantaytambo. En nuestro caso, pasamos la noche aquí ya que al día siguiente teníamos el tren a Machu Picchu. La habitación muy agradable y el trato fue buenísimo. Incluso, fueron más allá de nuestras expectativas y nos ayudaron en temas de coordinación de nuestro viaje. Totalmente recomendado.
