At the hostel, all rooms include a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at KOSKO Casa Hotel also have free WiFi, while certain rooms also offer a balcony. All guest rooms feature a wardrobe. The owners - Helga and Romulo - are some of the most loving and helpful people I met during my travels. Even when I lost my purse and passport they did everything to help me to get it back, which I did eventually. I really liked the location, quiet and very close to nature and the ancient sites. Romulo even gave me a little tour around the sites. They also gave me a hot-water bottle every night because it was a bit cold. Two super lovely humans. Thanks so much, would definitely coming back!

Sacred Valley Mystic Tribe - Community Life has free bikes, fitness centre, a garden and shared lounge in Pisac. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The hostel also features free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. It’s a good opportunity to live in a local community with locals, volunteers, and travelers altogether. Mystic Tribe also offers many tours, ceremonies, and activities every day , so it’s nice to stay a few nights there to enjoy the most. Mystic Tribe is located in Maska, around 15 min drive from downtown Pisac, and getting there is not a problem by the local transportation colectivo or motortaxi. However, it is this 15 min drive that gives me all the different experience from that in Pisac. In Mystic Tribe I enjoyed the mountain views, sunshine valley, and the tranquility so much. The staff were quite helpful.
