Owner was very informative with town, gave us good advice on restaurants and tips on proper etiquette in Machu Picchu. Don't go to hot springs they are filthy!
Listen to what owner says and make sure restaurants don't sock you with a town tax, arbitrary.
Hotel localizado de frente para a linha de trem, o que ocasionou um barulho infernal durante a madrugada e logo cedo pela manhã. O quarto em que ficamos, embora simples, aparentemente havia sido reformado recentemente (cama confortável, aparelho de TV moderno), mas o banheiro exalava um leve cheiro desagradável de esgoto, certamente resultado de trabalhos mal feitos no encanamento. Café da manhã pobre. Relação custo-benefício muito ruim.
Front counter was helpful and let us keep our baggage there for a few hours extra until our train arrived. Average breakfast, price was good with a mountain view and comfortable beds, noise wasn't too bad either. Overall pretty good.
Funcionarios excelentes
Foram nos recepcionar na estacao de trem
Muito prestativos nos ajudaram a ligar para o guía para organizar a visita a machu pichhu
O Jim deu otimas dicas quanto ao tour.
Lunch box para quem acordar cedo para ir para mp.
Guardaram nossa mala ate o fim do día.
Indicamos muito este hotel
Obrigado Mayra e Jim voces foram excelentes.
O Hotel é bem simples, mas o quarto bem confortável, limpo e espaçoso. O diferencial neste hotel é o atendimento. O senhor dono do hotel é muito atencioso, foi nos buscar na estação, incansável e prestar toas as informações sobre o local, deu dicas valiosas. Como no outro dia tínhamos que madrugar para ir a MachuPicchu, nos deixou um box lunch para levar, muito farto e gostoso. Super recomendo!

Hôtel Pas fiable, sur réservation!
Malheureusement nous n'avons pas séjourné dans l'hôtel choisi et réservé car il ne restait qu'une seule chambre de disponible sur les deux réservés. L'hôtel avait sur réservé! Il nous ont relocalisé dans un autre endroit de qualité moindre et bruyant.

Buena Experiencia
muy buena experiencia en el hotel con las comodidades necesarias para el tipo de turismo que fuimos a buscar
Pese al buen servicio, la comodidad fue terrible. Se escucha mucho ruido de los demas huespedes. Se escucha mucho ruido de los transeuntes. Está frente a la vía del tren y el ruido es fastidioso
Se contactaron conmigo para esperarme en la estación de tren, lo cual aprecio mucho pues te ahorra tiempo en buscar la dirección. Se localizan justo al lado de las vías si piensan madrugar para escalar Machu Picchu es un buen despertador pues los trabajos en las vías comienzan a las 5 am. Buen lugar para quedarse una sola noche. El cubo de la regadera del baño tenía algo de moho el resto estaba limpio y cómodo.
Booked this hotel as it advertised a room with a river/mountain view. It didn't mention however that the railway line was right outside the hotel. It was impossible to sleep once workmen started working on the railway outside banging around from 1am onwards especially due to the balcony door that wouldn't close. No sound insulation from the balcony doors either. If you're a deep sleeper and not woken easily it would be fine and a reasonable location. If not, I'd look elsewhere...
1) For one occasion (the only time I needed shower) I had no hot water for shower. My daughter complained it switched from very hot to freezing cold and then switched back to very hot after 10 seconds. I considered the shower doesn't work at all. At the end we didn't take shower. Just use water to wipe my body.
2) The window is facing a wall that is 10 cm away. No view
3) The room is so small that barely can fit for 2 single beds
4) Wi-fi absolutely does not work in the room. My room chair was placed in the hall way. I figured the previous guests put it there to access internet because wi-fi is never not working in the room
5) Wi-fi only works 70% of the time. I have to agree with other guests' review.
6) Wi-fi doesn't work in the lobby. I only see "obtaining IP address".
Ficamos pouco tempo pois chegamos a noite e na manhã seguonte saímos cedo para visitar Machu Picchu,mas os funcionários são muito cordiais e competentes e ajudam em tudo o que precisarmos. Fornecem um pacote com café ds manhã para levarmos para o passeio.

local bem simples só para dormir
Boa localização na frente da estação, o que pode incomodar por causa do barulho. O quarto tinha cheiro de mofo. Como saímos cedo nos fizeram um lanche para levar.
we loved our stay , they were very helpful on everything , we had to go to Machu Picchu at 5 am and they even pack our breakfast to take with us ! great hotel !!
The room was verge, expensive, but that's probably the price for being so close to the station and main market. The location was excellent, few mins from the station and main bus stop. The reception service was excellent, they went out of their way to help us. Very happy and satisfied with the experience.
Great hotel if you bring some earplugs with you (which, in my opinion, every traveller should).
We did not experience any of the "wet bathroom" conditions found in other reviews. Everything was extremely clean and comfortable. The owner is a really nice guy who was immensely helpful. Location is superb (3 mins to train station and 5 mins to bus station). If you're leaving early in the morning like most people, you can take your free breakfast with you "to go"
Accueil très sympathique et de très bons conseils pour la suite de notre séjour
L'hôtel et propre confortable. L'emplacement en bord de rivière et de la gare apporte quelques nuisances mais la rapport qualité prix reste satisfaisant
More hostal than hotel but the staff is very pleasant and helpful. Rooms and lobby need more electric outlets, beds need updating and toiletries need improvement such as providing hair conditioner and body lotion. Wifi only works temporary and not in rooms at all. The breakfast was excellent and ready at 3:30am which was a nice touch.
Very near the train station, hotel staff was friendly.

Custo benef[icio excelente !
Ficamos 3 noites neste hotel, em Águas Calientes. Hotel pqueno com 6 apartamentos. A cama super confortável, tudo novinho, o atendimento excelente. A única coisa negativa é a falta de elevador, mas creio que muitos outros na cidade Não possue. Fica localizado em frente a estação d etrem, mesmo assim o barulho não incomodou. Em Águas Calientes ninguém acorda tarde !!!!!!

Bien ubicado
En general es un buen hotel, buena relación de precio, está bien ubicado, limpio, cómodo. Al estar frente a la estación de trenes hay ruido, sin embargo, creo que para ser un hotel de una noche (previa a Machupicchu) cumple con todo lo necesario.
