PEOPLE SAED:

'On the whole a very good hostel. A lovely family feel, free internet, free tea and coffee, free pancake breakfast and the beds were really comfortable. Only downside was that it was cold thoughout, But there's plenty of blankets for that. Would recommend'

'Staff were very helpful, they went to the bus station and got us bus tickets. We had hot water every day, which to my surprise is not the norm in Peru. It was cold, but since being in a couple of places in Peru, I realize that nowhere has indoor heating. Just make sure you bring lots of warm clothes, the hostel also has extra blankets which really came in handy. They also had pancakes included for breakfast, and a tv to watch movies, and 2 computers with moderatly fast internet. Great hostal!'


'It is a bit of a walk from the city center but don't let this scare you away. The staff is very friendly; we found the resident tout lady offered the same deals on lake tours as the offices in town.'

'It´s up a long and steep hill but waling down into town is no problem at least!'

'This was the second time we stayed here, this time on our way back to Bolivia. Our second stay was just as good as the first stay! Staff once again so friendly. The beds were so comfy and it was nice to have a duvet for once! Thanks again'
