The house is so beautiful. The restaurant is amazing: organic foods, good seasoning. They provided us comfort dinner after our Inca trail. All the staffs are so so nice and helpful. They kept our suitcase during the Inca trail. Our journey couldn’t be more satisfying without them.

Rooms were simple but had a nice design. The common area gardens were lovely. Comfortable beds and linens. Breakfast was fresh and had high quality ingredients. Staff was friendly. As others said, bathrooms were just ok, a bit musty, and could use a refresh and renovation to match the better quality of the rooms and overall hotel itself. I booked ahead of time and got a good price and value.

Good service, beautiful property. Rooms are freezing cold and the small heater they provide does absolutely nothing. Never been so cold in a hotel before. Not worth the price per room either honestly.
