    A bit chilly throughout the hostel, but at least the bed had plenty of covers

    The 4 bed dorm was clean and quite spacious with an en-suite. The shower was the best I've had all trip - hot and strong. The included breakfast was a bit minimalist, but with fresh made eggs to order.

    The hostel could not prevent this but just a general inquiry for all travelers: A couple came back from partying at 4:30am, loud and drunk and started having sex with knowing that I was there. I left the room to the couch after showing my incomfort. Just don‘t do this.

    Pretty Hostel with Breakfast and nice Chill Area.

    Not a hostel problem, but nonsense guests. First night was few guys arrived after trekking with very stinky shoes, very stinky, trust me. Second night 3 Americans arrived and when I back to the dorm after dinner around 23:00 they were burning incense in the room, as if they were the only guests (the smoke stick to my clothes and bed clothes, couldn’t sleep) For the new guests, don’t be this kind of nonsense room mates.

    Cool hostel Nice staff and good breakfast Coca Tea all day to get climatized for the altitude.

    Not a very social hostel if that's what you're looking for.

    Nice location and good breakfast. The dorm was clean with comfy beds. Ended up extending my stay and would definitely visit again.

    At night you can hear the stairs cracking because the floor is made of wood. Not big deal really,

    The reception was 24 hours and you can keep the key. The staff was really kind with us, the breakfast is good (bread, butter, jam, eggs and coffee/tea/coca leaves/juice/milk. There is a really comfy living room in the second which can be used to work from home, watch tv or just read. Internet conection was good, too. Also the location is pretty good, you are in San Blas but in the lower part, just 5 blocks from Cuzco's main square

    My room had no roof, which is why I could hear quite some noise from other places in the hostel.

    The beds were amazing, the chill room was super comfortable, the breakfast was good, everything was clean and the people working at the hostel were super friendly.

    The internet is very poor this is the one that the property should consider to improve.

    The property itself very close to the plaza and restaurant, cleanliness and they have house keeping cleaning and making bed everyday, the breakfast is simple but ok. Staff very helpful and can assist whatever you want. I would recommend this place and will come back again

    I stayed at three Flying Dog Hostels across Peru and found the staff in each hostel to be extremely helpful and attentive and I loved that they gave such special attention to my dog Colt. Cusco was very cold in the evenings so we were so happy that we could rent a heater and the hot water on tap was divine! WiFi worked great which is important for a digital worker like me.
