This hotel is a little gem. My advice is to arrive at night and walk out onto the balcony in the morning to see a 360 degree view of crazy tall mountains. Unbelievable. Pictures cannot communicate the depth of the view that you will have. The staff tries so very hard to please. You will see the effect they go to when you have your first breakfast. See the layout of fresh fruit and watch the chef fresh pressing all of the juice and you will understand how hard they try. I would advise you to feel safe as you walk the 7 blocks from plaza de armas. You are beginning to mix with the local population. If that scares you, this is probably not the hotel for you. The streets are very narrow in these Peruvian cities...it feels different than you may be used to. But again, we felt totally safe. It is just narrow and darker and takes an adjustment. Having stayed in Cusco, ollantaytambo is a nice shift...much quieter and slower paced with, as I mentioned above, just breathtaking views that you don't get in Cusco. Personally, aguas clients is sketchy. And so this is actually my favorite place to relax in peru
