    Quiet residential neighborhood and the feeling of living with a Cusco family.

    If other guests are loud or have children you will likely hear it.

    A stay here is like being a part of the guesthouse proprietors extended family. Expect to dine at desayuno with other guests in the living/dining area. Nice warm blankets will keep you sleeping warm in the Andean mountains.

    No real complaints. The hot water didn’t last long but I managed. The blankets were ample and so I wasn’t cold (I’m easily cold). A bit of smell in the room/bathroom. But nothing too bad overall, especially for the price.

    I felt blessed to have landed in this lovely home! Zuzan was there to welcome me when I arrived and when I was feeling sick from the altitude she made me tea and soup and brought it to my room. She even checked on me multiple times to see how I was feeling. She was happy to chat and give me recommendations for Cusco and the valley and I felt she truly cared to know how my trip went even after I left Cusco. I was happy with the breakfast, the private room and bathroom for the price, and the quiet sunny rooftop in the mornings. The place is a 20 min walk to the center and I would taxi back at night. If you want a homey experience, especially if you’re alone and need a bit of caretaking, I highly recommend!!!

    We were concerned about the wifi but it was good enough for my partner to work comfortably 95% of the time and her video calls not have many problems. It could be better but overall it was decent

    We spent 3 weeks here on 3 separate stays and we loved it. The host Zuzan was super friendly and welcoming. The rooms were nice and clean. The breakfast was pretty decent as well. She let us leave our bags there while we went to the Amazon and Machu Picchu. No complaints with our stay here, it's great value.

    Such an amazing quiet place to restore for new adventures. The lovely owner, Zuzan, made me a special tea when I was sick. I could do my laundry here. She was happy to accomodate me again after the Salkantay Trek and after three days in the Sacred Valley and stored my bagpack safely during my absence. Breakfast was cute, the balcony pretty, Wifi good, dogs lovely, beds comfortable. Bus to town is 1 Sol and takes 5-10 minutes.

    Nothing

    I had the most magical Christmas at Casa Salkantay. The owner, Suzi is amazing. She invited me and other B&B guests to join with her family in celebrations. This created an absolutely magical atmosphere. We danced, ate, drank, enjoyed fireworks and even received a small gift from her! I will never forget this Christmas and a beautiful person that is Zsusi. I really liked it's a quiet place. The room was clean and spacious. Bed comfortable and bathroom had hot water. Internet was also pretty good. Also the laundry services that are offered are at a more reasonable price than most places. What else can one ask for? Brilliant place I would definitely recommend and I will most likely be back in. Thank you Suzi!

    There were minor plumbing issues that I needed to adjust to but overall for the price, it's understandable.

    The owner, Zuzan, was helpful and kind. She made the best breakfast out of all the hotels I've stayed at in Peru. We communicated via translator app and she understood my needs immediately. Her house is located close to the city and offers a quiet rest at night. I was able to walk to San Pedro market within 10 minutes in the morning.

    Very nice B&B with an extremely friendly and accommodating host! Rooms were clean. Breakfast was simple but tasty. The property is a little farther from the city center than others, but no more than a 10-15 minute walk, or a very cheap 3 minute Uber.

    Not they fault but the water didnt work in the area for day. But they organized a bucket for the urgent use. So good quick save. The location is a bit far away and you hear the train.

    Nice helpful host. Great view. It had a heater. Good kitchen.

    Zuzan was quite literally the best host I've ever had in many many years of travel. She's warm, welcoming and accommodating and makes you feel like you're at home when so far away from your own. Cannot recommend staying with her highly enough!

    Only downside was shower (no hot water and had to shower in a different bedroom to have hot water) and the VERY thin curtains that let light at 6am and woke me up. Would stay here again though, very good value and lovely host.

    Lovely host, included breakfast (the host even made me breakfast after hours because she knew I was tired and wanted to sleep in), cute little bedroom. It is a bit far from the centre (although this is all relative as Cusco is very small - approx 15/20 minute walk).
