Cute economy option in San Blas
Pros:

For the price this is a good economy option. Carmen is very sweet and helpful, and the breakfast room has incredible 360-degree views. The bed was comfortable. Excellent location with easy walk to the centro, exploring San Blas, or a hike up to Saqsaywaman.

Cons:

It gets very cold at night and there’s no heat. The shower was very difficult to work with and usually got too hot and then quickly cold again. Only one time could I get it warm and to stay that way. Also the glass above the shower is cracked and I found some on the floor when I got there.

Cons:

En general correcto todo. Nos tocó la primer habitacion de abajo. Demasiado chica y el baño tambien. Y es muy fría, deci que tienen muchas frazadas y al dormir no pasas frío. Y tiene una estufita eléctrica a vela que imposible dormir con eso porque alumbra muchísimo. Y si no quieren subir escaleras no se lo recomiendo jaja. El resto de las cosas bien.

Pros:

Die Unterkunft ist gut gelegen, um Cusco zu Fuss zu erkunden. Die Besitzerin gibt sich wirklich Mühe, den Aufenthalt angenehm zu gestalten. Das Frühstück ist einfach aber lecker. Es gab immer frischen Smoothie. Der Blick vom Frühstücksraum ist wirklich schön. Es gibt kostenlos Wasser.

Cons:

Wir hatten das Familienzimmer gebucht, sollten aber erst in einem Raum mit nur einem Bett untergebracht werden. Erst auf Nachfrage haben wir ein Zimmer mit 2 Betten bekommen. Es gibt keine Heizung im Zimmer, obwohl es als Einrichtung aufgeführt ist. So hat man morgens gern mal 5-7 Grad im Zimmer.

Pros:

Very quirky, we liked the decor. It has basic cooking facilities (hob and microwave). Nice view over Cusco from the room, even better from the breakfast room. Carmen was lovely. Great location. On our last day the shower wasn't very hot, but otherwise always fine.

Cons:

There was some noise coming from the street in the evening, but it didn't bother us much. There's a hole in the floor just inside the front door which could do with filling - once we knew it was there it wasn't a problem, but at first we both almost rolled our ankles

Pros:

Absolutely loved our stay here, the apartment is well equipped and comfortable.
There is a table and chair as well as an armchair to relax in. The kitchen was well equipped. Great hot shower, too.
Carmen was absolutely lovely and breakfast (Even though we only got to enjoy it once due to early morning starts) was delicious with fresh juice and scrambled eggs.
The location was fantastic and the few stairs didn't bother us

Cons:

We were given a completely different room to the one we had booked which was frustrating when we arrived late and tired after 4-day trek and heard that the one we booked was taken.The room had no big windows with views which was the reason we had chosen the place, but instead it was quite dark, even during the day
