Super clean, great showers, and the people were very nice (preparing breakfast at 5am!) As it is next to the train station it was a little noisy at some point, but not after 10pm.

Great little hotel in a great location in aguas calientes. Hotel owner was super friendly and helped me with my machu picchu tickets, even though she didn't speak English. Right next to bus terminal and with plenty of restaurants left right and centre. Clean rooms with tv. Adequate breakfast. Bring ear plugs for noise - the train runs right outside. Otherwise all great!

location is excellent - 1 min. to the bus station for machu picchu. they make breakfast when ever you like - in our case 4:30 pm. but at this time of the year there is no need to be the first at macchu pichu - it is foogy till 8am and there are too much people at any time of the day ;) bathroom was clean. wifi everywhere.

I had booked a dorm room but for some reason was upgraded to a private room for the same price. The tv with all the cable channels was nice and a big bed. The wifi didn't work really.

Good staff, in a convenient location right near the town square and buses to Macchu Picchu. And only a couple of minutes walk from the train station. The staff are friendly and helpful. Security of belongings in storage for the day could be improved, but seemed to do the job.

I've got mixed felling about this Hostel. It's well located (the city is very small itself) but it's near to the train track which means that occasionally you'll hear a big train noise. The staff isn't helpful and don't really give a damn about the clients. I asked for them to wake me up at 4am so I could go to Machu Picchu and they didn't do it and said they have forgotten. Also, there is only one pc with internet and prbl no wi-fi. Nevertheless the Hostel is very clean and the rooms are nice.

Brilliant location as right next to the bus station. They woke us up at 4:30am with breakfast ready to go so we could catch the first bus to the top of the mountain. We made a mistake with our booking and they were very accommodating. Just make sure you take your spanish translation book if you dont speak spanish.

Great place, great people, great location. Hot water was not really hot, more like luke-warm. Smelled like mold after the first night, probably because no ventilation in the bathroom. The bathroom is really small and gets fully soaked after one shower. Room was very clean when we got there, sheets and bedding smelled so fresh! great value for money, and the owners are so sweet.

Great location to go to Machupicchu, the bus to Machupicchu is basically the next door. The staffs are very kind and friendly although they do not speak English. Good value for money.

Varayoc is a good alternative to spend the night before travel to Machu Picchu, it is a budget hostel but the staff is very friendly and helpful, they ask you what time you you want to be wake up and they give you breakfast a tha time in our case the woke up us at 5:00 am and gave us breakfast at 5:30am. It is what you need in Aguascalientes.

I have given this place a poor rating because we turned up on the train from Cusco on time expecting to be met by a hostel rep and there was no sign of anyone. So, we were left to search Aguas Calientes for it in the rain. We eventually found it and was immediately worried by it's location right in the middle of the town's bar and restaurants. Not what we wanted when faced with an early start the following day. To make matters worse, it turned out that they definitely knew we were coming.
