Amazing location, place, and staff.
Pros:

The property was clean, large, and the shared spaces were perfect for a longer stay to do some work. The front desk staff specifically Diana and Mel were amazing in helping me with the check in process and helping me find my way around Cusco. I would highly recommend this hostal!

It wouldn’t be fair of me to give a bad review. It was just too lively for me as I needed peace and calmness as I caught
Pros:

A lot of activities, a tour desk, friendly staff.

Cons:

That you had to pay for the filtered water refill station.

Pros:

I stayed here for almost 3 weeks, I tried the 6-beds, 8-beds, also 12-beds, but the best one is the room with the window, you can request at the receptionist. They have quite complete facilities, free hot tea everytime, resto, bar, a lot of common areas. The tour here is much more expensive than the other agencies, so I suggest you to compare before booking. I expect if Viajero served free breakfast, I’m willing to pay more for that, it would be perfect hostel for me but overall this is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in Latin America 🫶🏻

Viajero hostely jsou skvělé! Toto byl můj několikátý pobyt v těchto hostelech a neměnila bych.
Recepční Lisbeth byla hrozně milá a nápomocná! Všichni zaměstnanci hostelu byli milí a vstřícní.
