Great location near to the main square, and our room had an incredible view over all of Cusco. The room was spacious and bed comfortable - perfect place to relax after a few days of trekking.

Location was excellent. A few minutes walk from the centre/Plaza de Armas. Freezing cold room and shower room so much so I couldn't bring myself to shower over the two days I was there! Paper thin walls, kept getting woken up by the sounds of the people upstairs

Ok place with some issues
Some rooms have great views and beds (but it's not clear what type to book to get them). Breakfast is basic. Some rooms have gaps in doors and windows so inside it's very cold but reception will give you another blanket if you ask. Showers are either scorching hot or freezing cold, regardless which tap you turn on. Location is OK just above plaza des armas, be ready to hike up.

The room I booked was unavaileable!!!
I booked a room with a double and a single bed, but they didn't have it, and they gave me a room with 3 single beds... considering I was travelling by couple, that's very annoying! Nevertheless, the receptionist was not nice at all. She didn't even say sorry: she said it's Exedia's fault, and only thing we can do is find another hotel (!!!). She even didn't pffefr a discount! Moreover, we paid for the breakfast, but at 9:30 it was already over (check out is at 10, and no breakfast time is written around). They only gave us some tea, and 2 bananas. No caffe, no bread, no sugar, nothing. Once again, the staff was very unpolite. Moreover, they do not accept Mastercards. The structure is ok, but overall the experience thgere was terrible. Definitely not suggested!

Not Impressed
I was not impressed with this hostel. First, the courtyard upon walking in is rather uninviting, all cement and not pleasant to the eye at all. In all three of the showers I tried, there was no hot water, which was just wonderful after our week-long trek to Machu Picchu. Finally, the pillows were lumpy. For the price we payed, I don't expect the place to be perfect, but they should be able to do better than that.

Nothing fancy; all right for the price. Breakfast was a couple pieces of bread and a banana.

Good hostel, with pleasant courtyard and gardens
We enjoyed our stay at this hostel. The staff are friendly, professional and helpful. The rooms are clean, the showers were hot and the beds very comfortable. It was cold at night but plenty of blankets provided. The hostel is 5-10 minutes walk uphill from plaza de armas. Lots of restaurants and a couple of shops nearby. The street was not noisy at night. The Wifi was intermittent. Sometimes good, but there was a problem during our stay (wifi maybe needed to be reset- or simply not enough bandwidth) but I think that's common for the area.

Cheap stay, scary shower
Kurumi hostel is one of the cheap options in Cusco. I had a private room with a private bathroom for a low price. The taxi in Plaza de Armas had a tough time finding it at night, but it is close to the plaza (you have to walk through some narrow, sketchy-looking alleyways though). The room is small. The bedroom looked clean enough. The bathroom was very small and the shower stall was dirty (crud on the edges). The little window inside the shower stall was left open so there were some bugs in the bathroom. Also, the window is very rusty and cruddy. My girlfriend was extremely disappointed in the condition of the bathroom and refused to shower for some time. Charged 5 soles for an extra towel. Probably wouldn't stay again, although if you are low on cash, this is a doable option.

Needs improvements and breakfast was chaotic
OK hotel but needs updating! Room had mould on the windows in the private bathroom. Breakfast was a shambles - one person manually serving everyone which meant breakfast took much longer than needed! Give yourselves plenty of time! Helpful staff

Fabulous hostel with super helpful staff
Great place to stay. We stayed here for three weeks on and off in between treks in the mountains. We stayed in many of the rooms upstairs and each has a great view over the city. Breakfast and bread, fresh fruit, and sometimes yogurt. Tea is available all day. The gem of this hostel is the family (?) that runs the facility. They are so helpful and kind. They answered all our questions about the treks in the area.

Cheap for Cusco, but freezing
We had a private room with shared bathroom and stayed three nights. The room was freezing with no heating or insulation. There were plenty of blankets on the bed, but as there is no common room (only outdoor area) so there is no where warm and comfortable to hang out. The WiFi is terrible. The outdoor space has a nice view with some humming birds and a couple of hammocks which is nice when the sun is shining.

Good service
Breakfast every morning with coffee or teas of your choice. Laundry service was good. I got a room for a couple and it was in good condition and I got my private washroom which was great. Access to hit showers was a good as well. There are no TVs in the private room, and the neighbourhood is good but like all cusco has a bunch of stray dogs!
