Summary of traveller reviews

Koala Hostel Puno offers a great location near the main square and is praised for its exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Guests enjoy the tasty breakfast, especially the pancakes. Tours, particularly kayaking to Uros islands, are highly recommended. Some recent feedback notes issues with ventilation and occasional dampness in rooms.

Had everything we needed for a 1 night stop- rooms were very basic but was a nice hostel with a half decent kitchen and games downstairs. We arrived at 5am the day we were checking in, they let us check in for 50% increase of the room cost. Most hostels have let us in no charge but makes sense.

a bit tricky to find. the staff was very friendly and sweet! it is tricky to have proper airflow in the rooms, because there are no way to open windows, and no ventilation (at least not from what i could see). otherwise, fine hostel.
