“Best place I’ve ever stayed”
+Everything was so beautiful, the work of Vittoria is notable, from things so simple as kitchen decoration to how the room was made to feel cozy and safe. As an artist what really stuck with me was the high attention to detail all around the property, it was truly breathtaking, almost inspirational. I enjoyed it so much it was my favorite thing from the trip.

+One thing I wish was advertised more is that Yanapakusun is a responsible tourism initiative that uses your business to help run a child education center. Josefina took very good care of me and I felt that I was at grandmas house. It was peaceful and kind and had local charm!
−Had a hard time with the showers, couldn't get the water to be the right temp

“Noisy and not for international travellers”
+Use of the kitchen. Neighborhood was ok.
−Room was extremely noisy, people walking on the stairs next to the building kept me awake all night and every night, sound insulation is non-existent. Staff got mad when I didn't open the door for cleaning (I was wearing noise canceling headphones because of the people on the stairs).

“A quiet, clean place with a good breakfast”
+The place is very clean, they cleaned the room everyday, the people were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was perfect. The place is not near the centre so it is very quiet and peaceful. It has a lovely garden and a view of Cusco. If you do not mind walking for 20 min or using a bus I recommend the place and I would stay again

“Peaceful Retreat with Exceptional Staff and a Noble Cause”
+I recently had the pleasure of staying at Yanapanakusun in Cusco, and I couldn't have been more satisfied with my experience. Although it's about a 20-minute journey from the historical center, the location offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The staff at Yanapanakusun were exceptional. They were incredibly kind and always a joy to talk to. I cherished the moments I bumped into them outside of breakfast, as they shared more about Yanapanakusun and their own stories. Their warmth and friendliness truly enhanced my stay. The space itself is beautiful, with stunning views of the entire city. The kitchen, a unique blend of Peruvian and Italian architecture, was a peaceful haven where I enjoyed my meals. Despite the cold weather during my visit, the room was cozy, thanks to a movable radiator that I could place close to the bed. Yanapanakusun offers great value for money, being more affordable than many hostels in the area. But what makes it truly special is its incredible mission. The organization supports local girls, providing them with psychological care, schooling, and technical training. This cause is close to my heart, and I was moved to learn that many
−However, please note that Yanapanakusun is located up a hill with many steps. This could pose accessibility concerns for individuals with mobility issues. It's something to keep in mind when planning your stay.

+Heel erg vriendelijk personeel. Het ontbijt was erg goed. Het was er erg rustig dat was erg fijn. Onze motoren konden binnen staan dat was fijn. Het is mooi om te zien hoe ze zich inzetten voor kinderen.

“Quedate en el Cusco real”
+El lugar es una maravilla, no queda tan bien localizado respecto a las zonas turísticas, pero se llega rápido en bus o en taxi. La labor social que hacen, hace que con la estadía de uno se amplifique el impacto social.
−La verdad me gustó todo
