“In Cusco's artistic San Blas, this hostel strikes a cozy, bohemian note, with its quiet courtyard and creperie overlooking the city. It's a walkable base for exploring the city, and a welcome spot to return to after trekking, with hot showers and helpful staff arranging taxis and tours. I found it a solid choice for those seeking both comfort and a bit of local flavor.”
