8/10 Very Good

As expected for the price and decent location for the central plaza and port. We had arranged an early check in for 7am, and arrived a bit earlier, but were able to access our room. Decent sized twin beds. Room was a bit dated and the only window was out into the main corridor so couldn't really have the curtain open. Generally seemed clean, but the floor was a bit grubby. We had to leave early in the morning before breakfast, but they kindly arranged a breakfast for us to takeaway.

2/10 Poor

Terrible experience with their brokered taxi service. We ordered private taxi service from JUL airport to Puno via the hotel. We waited at the arrival gate until we were the last passengers left and the driver never showed us. I called the hotel multiple times, they either couldn't understand my questions in English, or deliberately led me wait without giving any response. We finally decided to take the shared van and I left a message to the hotel on Expedia where I did the booking, and the hotel staff never checked my message (not read) even after our checkout. Our check-in was also not very smooth. They couldn't find the key to our room and after 5 min of futile search had to give us another one. Our room is really weird, there is no ventilation fan in bathroom so it had a small window/opening towards outside. Except in our room it that opening was to the corridor! That raised some privacy concerns. Buffet breakfast is fairly basic but for this price no complaints. Overall I just can’t recommend a hotel that can’t keep up its promises/services especially when it was mostly relied upon.

Hot and powerful shower
Read the review by a Japanese traveler, he was right, this hotel has powerful hot water shower. Only block away from the main square. Lots of restaurants and at least four ice cream shops!

Acceptable
A Old hotel but clean. The location is OK, near the plaza, only 3 minutes walk. A Quite area, and not suitable for walking alone near the hotel. Bad Service because I have left some clothes in the bathroom and then check out to the Lake Titikaka. I have returned to the hotel to take the luggage in the afternoon, the staff have not remind me that there is some clothes I have left in the bath room.

Decent place for the price. Dinner at the restaurant in the hotel was very good. Close to the main plaza. Power didn't work one morning but the shower still worked. Wasn't a big deal and it came back on later.
