Super cute and well situated hostel in Cusco. We loved our stay here, nice clean room, computers with fast internet, free breakfast, and a common room to watch movies in, what more could you ask for? Plus while we were there they had a free Pisco Sour night which was fun, and they were installing safety deposit boxes to increase security. I would definitely recommend and go back myself.

Its a very nice place to stay, as it is a smaller house just nearby the mainhouse its very quite with a nice garden. And besides the very good Pisco offered on a pisco sour free evening, we recommend the Pisco and Soul because of the very friendly and helpful staff there. Thanks for the nice stay there!

Great location! Great staff, very helpful and friendly. It was clean and in a very safe neighborhood. Great for the kind of trip I wanted, to get a good night sleep and be able to get up early in the morning to go on programmed tours.

San Blas is the perfect location in Cucso. You can walk to the plaza, but you're not surrounded by all the tourists and noise. Definitely recommend.

The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome. They provided sufficient information on where to go and what to do in Cusco. They met and exceeded our every request. The only thing that could have made the accommodation absolutely perfect was a bit more cleanliness, especially in the bathroom. No other complaints!

The staff did everything possible to make sure my stay went perfectly well with awesome insider tips on restaurants, bars, shopping etc. They kept the place very clean and it was always fun meeting the other guests in the kitchen! The other Pisko and Soul hostel, owned by the same management, had a pisco sour night - free pisco sours, haha! Never heard of that at a hostel before - and a great chance to meet so many travelers! I would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to Cusco.

Room was not cleaned once in the whole week we stayed. Young children screaming all the time. Staff are excellent and always willing to help and offer free Pisko Sours. Stay at the main pisko and soul. Much nicer with same great staff. Strong wifi in both buildings.

We ended up staying at Pisko and Soul, (not grill garden) since the two hostels er basically the same hostel, just seperated in two departments. Both departments was ok, but the rooms was very basic without anything but a bed. I say it is overpriced, like most hostels in Cuzco...

the place in general is great, but for some minor structural problems. the toilet for example needs repair. it was uh, disassembling whenever one sits on it. the flooring too needs some repair. perhaps a towel or so for the bathroom floor would have been very nice. the water from the shower tends to pool on the floor and hence, becomes icky. also, the light at the back stairs (by the garden) is so bright and kept even late at night that it was hard to sleep in the back room.

This is a good hostel with good facilities and the staff were friendly and helpful to me. My only complaint was that the whole place seemed to be freezing cold - dorms and common areas alike. (I stayed in mid February). The hostel has a few different blocks and maybe I was in the colder one of the two? I realise Cusco isn't warm in February but a little bit of heating would have been nice!

Hostel was really nice. Beds comfy and rooms where big. Only problem was lighting in places was not the best. Owners were real nice and actually made the trip a lot more fun. Hats off to them. The pisko night every Thursday is a bit of fun as well. More so because they are free!
