Centro by Casa Andina Cusco Saphi

I enjoyed my stay. The people on reception were lovely. The common areas were inviting and comfortable.

Nice and big hostel.. many rooms and friendly hostes. Be careful with the altitude difference, because 3400 meters above sea level makes most people suffer from altitude sickness.

This is a review of the co-working space only, not the hotel. It is very cold. According to my phone it was 6 degrees celsius or 43 degrees Fahrenheit which isn’t that cold on first glance but when you are sitting in it for 8 hours a day it’s not nice at all. I asked a member of staff about it and was told there was supposed to be a heater in the room but I informed her that there was not. She said she would have one brought to the office but 4 hours later and still no heat. I tried again the next day and asked a different member of staff who said the same thing. A few hours later still no heat. I spotted a heater inside one of the conference rooms/offices but the door was locked. I went back to reception and asked about the heater in the conference room. I was told someone would come up to the co-working space soon to let us use it. A few hours later and still no heat. I sat working in my jacket, hat, and gloves for as long as I could handle. I even boiled water with the kettle and poured it into a mug so I could hold it to warm my fingers. After three and a half days of sitting in the cold, I gave up. I’m not paying for the privilege of being freezing. It’s too bad because the space itself is nice with good natural light and fast internet. I just wish it was a comfortable place to work. I wouldn’t even mind paying a little extra for heat.

Such a great hostel! Really good vibes, perfect chilling spots and very comfy beds. I was with a group of friends but it would be good for solo travellers too as we met loads of people. Very clean and the staff are super friendly and helpful. They also have free yoga classes on Thursday and Friday mornings if you love yoga!! Couldn’t recommend more.
