Great hotel coupled with excellent views along with scrumptious food served in their restaurant which is all locally sourced. Even included hairdryer, bathrobe and fresh fruit in the room.
Edgar, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

From the outside this property is unassuming. Once you enter, it’s a whole other world. The staff were friendly and Juanita’s brownies hit the spot. The hotel is quaint and unique. The staff provided an early morning snack to go for our early tour departure. They held luggage for other travelers as well. The location is within a walking distance of the main square, restaurants and shopping. Highly recommend!

The house is so beautiful. The restaurant is amazing: organic foods, good seasoning. They provided us comfort dinner after our Inca trail. All the staffs are so so nice and helpful. They kept our suitcase during the Inca trail. Our journey couldn’t be more satisfying without them.

A great place to stay with a nice garden and great views from the balcony. Staff were nice and helpful. Special thanks to the kitchen staff - very friendly and considerate. Love the breakfast. Downside could be room condition and cleanliness. But overall it was a good stay.
