Samay Wasi hostel is perfectly situated away from the tourist central vibe of plaza de armas but is only a 10 min walk away downhill... the area of san blas is quite high up and so has a great view of the city.. all the staff at the hostel are really friendly and helpful (english not their strong point so good to practice sus espanol!!), desayuno was top notch as well.. big comfy dopuble bed & nice showers too... canīt recommend highly enoughSamay Wasi hostel is perfectly situated away from the tourist central vibe of plaza de armas but is only a 10 min walk away downhill... the area of san blas is quite high up and so has a great view of the city.. all the staff at the hostel are really friendly and helpful (english not their strong point so good to practice sus espanol!!), desayuno was top notch as well.. big comfy dopuble bed & nice showers too... canīt recommend highly enough...Close

Amazing view! That was my favorite thing about this hostel. The staff is really nice but they only speak spanish.
Unfortunately, we didnt sleep that well. Dogs barking and the walls are paper thin! You can hear everything around you...Amazing view! That was my favorite thing about this hostel. The staff is really nice but they only speak spanish.

It was a little way out from the centre although not too bad, but an issue if you have mobility problems. Staff were friendly and helpful but the facilities were pretty average, especially the internet connection. The main criticism was with cleanliness as we stayed three nights and the room was never cleaned. Despite these shortcomings though this is a good value hostel given the price, especially as its in Cusco.It was a little way out from the centre although not too bad, but an issue if you have mobility problems.

Excellent place to stay in Cusco, very nice ambient. The staff is fantastic specially Monica and Ronald, very helpful. Definitely I would recomend this place, even if the way to it from the main square could be a bit breath taking.Excellent place to stay in Cusco, very nice ambient.

The hostel was pretty neat and tucked in a nice corner. The staff spoke a bit of English which was pretty good considering our challanged linguistic capabilities. They had decent internet, couches and a TV with American channels - great place to meet other guests and have a nice chat. The only drag was a bit of a long walk while searching for it. They need to place a sign on the main lane.The hostel was pretty neat and tucked in a nice corner.
