A 4 star hotel that doesn't have hot shower
Pros:

I get to the hotel expecting a hot shower, but to my surprise this 4 star hotel doesn't have hot water. The worst hotel I ever stay.

Good for town but basic
Pros:

Quiet basic rooms for the cost, small, sparsely furnished, toiletries etc, clean, noisy from bar scene. It's in a good location for access to everything and the hotel and grounds are nice, it's a shame the rooms are so basic. The breakfast was OK but nothing to write home about.

Nice enough
Pros:

Hotel was centrally located and clean. Breakfast and dinner were just ok but the worst thing was the walls and windows weren’t soundproofed. There was a really cool festival going on the night we were there but there was a marching band of sorts that played the same song going up and down the city streets from 10 pm until 1 am and we heard every note. So sleep was elusive… and we were very tired

Pros:

El Mapi is in a great location but needs lotion for guest. Luz in the restaurant gave us excellent service and will be apart of our memory from this trip.

Excellent buffet lunch after visiting Machu Picchu
Pros:

We had a family lunch at the restaurant after visiting Machu Picchu. It was a buffet lunch and we were not disappointed by the selection of , starters,mains and deserts provided. As vegetarians we found plenty of options while they were quite a few non-vegetarian options also available. The buffet includes hot drinks while the cold drinks, alcoholic beverages wear an extra reasonably priced. The staff were very caring and attentive. Fresh pasta was made on order. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would recommend it for fellow travellers.

Pros:

Localização, guarda bagagem, sistema meia pensão.

Cons:

Por fora parece pequeno, mas é um hotel grande, com 164 apartamentos, tudo muito movimentado e corrido. Faltam amenities no banheiro, inclusive local adequado dentro do box para colocar nossos próprios produtos de higiene. Nem rolo extra de papel higiênico tinha disponível no banheiro! Toalhas de banho velhas e “esgarçadas” em alguns pontos. O café da manhã parece uma linha de produção, inclusive 1h antes do término do horário do café simplesmente o queijo acabou e disseram que não tinha mais!
Ou seja, não merece o título de 4 estrelas!

Um hotel com muito potencial, próximo da estação ferroviária.
Pros:

Gostamos do café, dos ovos mexidos, das passas e geléias.
A cama é grande e muito confortável.
A equipe é muito atenciosa, em especial o funcionário que auxilia levando e trazendo as bagagens da estação ferroviária.

Cons:

As mesas do café são afastadas do bifê e as escadas oferecem perigo aos hospedes, em especial aos idosos transpotando os produtos do café.
A Iluminação do quarto é escura no lavatório.
O acesso ao quarto com pouca acessilidade, escadarias dificultam deslocamentos, principalmente o check out
A higiene dos banheiros da recepção é ruim.
