Our host was absolutely amazing! She was so kind to let us store our bags while we were doing our Salkantay trek and then again she took care of our bags while we went to the Amazon! Rooms are very clean! WiFi works very well for those who are working and traveling! Breakfast includes fruits, jam, coffee, bread and egg.

Bed was extremely comfortable, better than many others we experienced around Cusco. The place was beautiful, vibe was great, wish we had more time to enjoy the facilities and sit in the yard. Heater was available!

Aside from the perfect location, spotless cleanliness, incredibly helpful staff, and top-notch facilities, I have to give a standing ovation to the team for going above and beyond—specifically helping me recover a jacket that mysteriously disappeared from the hostel bar (I’m choosing to believe it was an honest mistake 😅). Also, special shoutout to Luna, the kindest volunteer with a wicked sense of humor, who made our stay all the more entertaining. She also graciously helped me swallow my pride after repeatedly destroying me in table soccer—truly a humbling experience 😄. Big thanks to everyone at Black Llama—you're legends! 🦙✨

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great service, super welcoming, nice breakfast and the perfect budget hostel. Its surrounded by cheap food options and a 5 min walk from the main plaza. Cheap and cheerful. Kevin is really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Not a party hostel, so be aware, but still had fun and a few nights out with the staff and guests!
