Huge Construction Zone, False advertisement/photos, dishonest hotel
Pros:

Nice location, only a few minutes walk from the main square

Cons:

This is a very unpleasant stay. I didn't know the hotel was undergoing constructions all day from 8am to 6pm and I was not informed before or after booking confirmation, otherwise I could have found another accommodation.

1. The hotel intentionally lure/deceive guests without disclosing the huge construction that’s going on since November 2025 (see other customer complaints/review screenshots) and won’t be completed for probably another 6 months at least. The photos on Booking.com are a lie, a scam, and look nothing like the real photos I took of the property.

They claim they offer guests 50% discount of regular rate to compensate for the inconvenience. Honestly the hotel should not be open for business until the entire construction is finished, so that the guests don't have to subject to constant noise, dust and inconvenience. Lacking of empathy and respect is ridiculous!

2. The room doesn't have any heatings. Even with the extra blanket, it's still very cold.
3. WiFi signal is very unstable and there was no internet connection. See my picture proof.
4. I have been to 165 countries and stayed in many hotels. Never heard of such an early check-out at 10am. This is unacceptable to force guests out that early. I had to beg for a late checkout since I couldn’t get any proper sleep.
5. The walls are so thin. There is NO soundproofing. I can hear the guests next door snoring, talking and even farting non-stop all night!
6. They assigned me Room 110, which faces a huge construction zone. The construction workers started banging the walls, talking loudly, blasting music and smoking cigarettes outside my room starting at 8am. The smell, noise and dust came through my bathroom window.

Volvería sin dudarlo
Pros:

Excelente ubicación cerca a la Plaza de Armas, restaurantes y tiendas. El desayuno es básico pero de excelente calidad y el cuarto contó con calefacción y una estación de infusiones y hervidor, preciso para el frío de Cusco. Está a un paso de todo pero en una calle muy tranquila. La atención es estupenda, todo el personal se preocupó hasta por el último detalle.

Aceptable
Pros:

Buen ubicación, personal muy amable y cordial, preocupados por buscar soluciones con lo que tenían a mano a eventos de contingencia aunque fuera de manera rudimentaria.

Cons:

Habitación un poco fría, desayuno no muy variado, no contaban con equipos alternativos de generación energía ante eventos de cortes de luz y agua, por lo menos contar con un equipo a gasolina generador de electricidad.
