Although this hotel is nothing to write home about it is good value for a single at 35 soles a night (about 13 dollars). The lady who runs it is very sweet and kind. She lent me a couple of her own shawls for a few days because it was cold! It is only a few minutes walk from restaurants... More

We were amazed after seeing all three... More
