Stayed there for 2 nights. Very friendly and helpful staff, good location, simple but sufficient breakfast included in the price: one glass of juice, tea or coffee with milk, 2-3 pieces of bread with butter and jam. It is served until 9 pm; you can tell them the previous evening what time you want it to be served. Room basic but clean. They didn't speak English but took the effort to understand my broken Spanish. The only small inconvenience was that their computer was infected so I basically didn't have internet access. They lock the main door and sometimes you have to keep knocking for a while until they show up, but it's not too bad. There is no alarm clock in the room but they knock on your door if you ask for a wake-up call :) I paid $18 per night. I can recommend this place to people who just want a clean, safe place to spend a night at and are happy with a basic breakfast.

Friendly staff, held our stuff when visited Lake Titicaca over night. Ask for a room at the back of the building. We had one at the front the first night and it was super noisy. Maybe because it was Saturday night too...Room at the back was much bigger, warm and quiet. Great price 50 soles peak time...

We relocated to this jem after following a group to some enterprise hostel that offered everything under the sun, but without much quality. Santa Maria was actually the first place that was ready to offer a heater - and they offered a great deal, followed by replacement toilet paper, and nice clean towels. We were amazed after seeing all three of these dream treats during our cold trip.
We loved our chats with the operators so much, we agreed that of all the places we had been during month visit, this was the one that truly deserved a good word.

I miss the wool blankets too! the room actually inspired us to stay in.

Gorgeous hot showers, cable TV, friendly reception, and only S/.40@ double (off-season) with bathroom, S/.10 more for an electric heater. And whenever you return from touring the town, the Manager will deliver a large thermos bottle of hot water to your room for coca tea. Just like home ...
