    Their hot water system needed a little work. After the first night there was plenty of warm water if you kept the faucet on full hot.

    The location was great! The owners were very helpful with places to go, had a great breakfast for us every morning and interacted well with children and adults.

    This property was absolutely lovely. We were treated like family. The guest house was close to the main square, but still very quiet. There were great views of the surrounding hills from the upstairs balcony. The breakfast was delicious, and they even packed us a breakfast on the day of our early departure to Machu Picchu.

    Wifi was poor, but not a problem for us since neither of us needed to work. Unable to pay with card and had to pay multiple atm transaction fees. This again was only a minor inconvenience. I would highly recommend to stay at Picaflor Tambo and experience the beautiful town of ollantaytambo!

    Location was within walking distance of the main plaza and train station. Quaint town with beautiful cobblestone streets and a flowing stream. Rooms were nicely decorated and clean with natural light. Breakfast was a nice touch. Staff was friendly and made us feel comfortable. They carried our luggage up and down the stairs, and tidied up our room while we were out exploring. This was overall a great place to rest after a long day of travel and Machu Picchu.

    The internet connection was super unstable to the point we simply couldn’t use it. Someone has to open the door for you everytime you wish to enter or leave the hostel, which at times wasn’t very convenient.

    Staff were really nice!

    - To get hot water you have to get the hot water dial on the proper low setting. Suggest asking for help if you have issues. - This didn't really bother us because we are comfortable sleeping with ear plugs, but some days the next door bar plays music past 10 pm (for those that need an early start).

    - Esmeralda was our host and she was wonderful. Very helpful and friendly despite our minimal Spanish abilities - Breakfast with bread, avocado, tomato, cheese, fruit, cereal, tea and coffee -Evening hot water and tea brought to your room - Charming and cozy guest house - Great location, right next to the Pinkuylluna hike and short walk to everything else - Two pillow options (firm or softer)

    Getting a full shower with hot water was challenging. It went in and out, which considering the structure of many of these buildings, it was tolerable. Although the hotel didn't have a heater, we didn't feel the cold in the middle of the night.

    The best part of Picaflor Tambo was Antonio who was made everything happen. He helped us arrange for transportation from Cusco to Ollantaytambo, including tours along the way for a very reasonable price. He recommended the best restaurant in the area for dinner (Apu Veronica) and even packed a substantial lunchbox for all of us to take on our train ride to Machu Picchu. The hotel itself is adorable and worked great for us. There is an aqueduct the runs alongside the entrance of the hotel which you hear all night and in the morning and it's the most soothing sound.

    Just make sure to call in advance so the owner can meet you as it might be a bit difficult to find.

    This is the perfect space to relax set back in a quiet part only a couple of blocks from the main center located along a little river. We had two balconies and Mountain Views. We ended up staying another night. The owner was also very friendly and made us a lovely breakfast.

    Having to go through the cobblestone alley to get to the location was difficult with luggage.

    Unique stay with a balcony overlooking mountains and ruins, tranquil atmosphere. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Both of our mornings were early, so he greeted us with“to-go” breakfasts for us each morning and arranged our taxi to the airport.
