It’s not like a crazy loud party hostel. The breakfast is great, typically with eggs, bread, jam, and coffee or a great tea selection. The view on the balcony is stunning as you can see the almost the whole town. ##### Emma Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Zhongyan Mar 24, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Not good,not recommend. ##### Zhongyan Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katherine Sep 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Buen lugar para pasar unas noches Un hostel tranquilo y con hermosa vista, el desayuno es delicioso, la habitación es cómoda.

La zona es hasta cierto punto centrica, esta a 10-15 minutos caminando de la Plaza de Armas (principal), a 10 minutos caminando del mercado de San Pedro, a unos 7 minutos caminado a la Piedra de los 12 Angulos, y 20 minutos en carro al aeropuerto. Esta en una calle donde únicamente puedes entrar caminado (por lo que no lo encontraras en foto en google maps), importante considerar que esta cuesta arriba por lo que hay que subir escaleras. El hostel es muy bonito y acogedor, las habitaciones cuentan con agua caliente, incluyen toallas, y radiador que se mantiene encendido desde las 8 pm a 6 am aproximadamente, por lo que cumple con los basicos para tener una estancia comoda. Tienen una terraza con una preciosa vista donde puedes sentarte a desayunar o tomar un té de coca, muña u otros que estan a disposición a cualquier hora del día. Tambien tienen desayunos, siempre sirven huevos revueltos con pan, jugo de naranja y café, y todo esta delicioso. El personal es muy amable y servicial, y tienen una agencia de tours, por si a tu llegada aún no has planeado nada. Definitivamente volvería a quedarme aqui. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5c8494bc-e43a-4899-b9ce-44e70bb15ac4-1749781448474.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c46db299-a9d8-4d8b-b3d3-a104c08dc753-1749781448988.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0af541c1-e603-4613-9879-409621fa55d7-1749781448607.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dd955430-2f70-4d6e-97c8-c24e4a0309dd-1749781448773.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### DARIANA EDITH Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Natsumi Apr 18, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities 部屋から景色は見えなかったが、上のテラスに上がったらとてもキレイ。飲み物もティーパックがたくさんあり美味しい。部屋はキレイだが、隣や上の階の音が少し気になった。タオルがシミやゴワゴワで残念だった。シャワーは良い。 ##### Natsumi Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Geisa Karina Dec 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Recomendo O Hostel é bem limpinho, confortável, café da manhã bom e pelo valor foi maravilhoso.

He speaks very good english as well. The rooms are small but have a great shower with hot water. They serve a simple but nice breakfast and on the roof you have a great view over Cuzco city. ##### Inge Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachael Jan 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a great time here and wished we could have stayed longer. The best thing about this hostel is the shared terrace with amazing views of the city all day, especially dawn and sunset. We arrived on the evening of New Years Eve and paid a little extra for a room with a view on the 2nd floor, rather than no views on the 1st floor and we were so glad we did. The fireworks were amazing of course! Plus we didn't have to deal with the normal nightmares of NYE with everything we needed right there, including a guitarist and some other travellers having fun. Henry, James and all the staff are really friendly, and we loved our double bed room with en-suite and a wide window onto the view of Cusco to wake up to. I think good hostels fall into two groups, the quirky, relaxed ones that make you think of a classic backpacker trip, and the new, quite sterile, types. Samay Wasay is the quirky kind. It's clean, the beds are comfortable and the water is hot, and at breakfast large flasks of hot water are on the tables so you can make Coca tea. We found it to be great value. I saw some other people complaining about having to walk up stairs to get to the hostel - well it's only about 10 mins from Plaza del Armas, uphill, and we did it with a backpack each and it was fine. I think if you want a 5-star hotel, then go and book that for yourself. If I came back to Cusco, I'd definitely stay here again, and have recommended it to several people we've spoken to. ##### Rachael Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph Nov 12, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities . ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 18, 2021 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities El hostal está muy bien ubicado y la atención es excelente, la vista es muy bonita se puede observar todo Cusco.
