Very good

I stayed here for three nights during my visit in Puno. The family was very accommodating even with limited English. The facilities were very clean and comfortable. No issues with hot water and only a few minutes walk to the main square.
We were here one night when visiting lake titicaca and the hotel were very accommodating - letting us stay in their lounge until our very late bus back to cusco the day after our stay! Very friendly and hotel did the basics well.
Quick stop from Copacabano to Cusco. It was hard for taxi driver to find this place but once we were in it was good. The room size was tiny but adequate for us to have 1 night. The room we had was with private bathroom , the water was hot.
Breakfast was included and started at 6am which was perfect for us as were were leaving on Uros island tour at 6.30am. The owner/manager was helpful, spoke some English and breakfast included cooked eggs to addition to usual tea/coffee, bread and jam.
All in all - a very pleasant stay.

good, basic, and inexpensive - helpful staff
Checked in at 5am after an overnight bus ride from Cusco. The owner and his son very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast the next morning. Rooms very basic with "Peruvian" style toilet&shower combo. Overall a good value for no thrills, quick overnighter for only USD 19/night (single room).
the staff was very helful with arranging taxis, maps, etc
we got eggs for breakfast everyday with delicious juice and bread;
we got extra heater for the room - very important in Puno;
the water in the shower was always warm;
close to the city center; we walked and night and felt safe
the downside is that the hostel looks grumpy from the outside but just as the rest of Puno
Simple, clean room. Shower is electric and over the toilet. The family running this is very nice and provided great recommendations for how to spend our evening around town.

Tiny Hotel
This hotel is very small, as are the rooms. The shower is in the same place as the toilet, but the water was hot. The front desk is not always manned, and you have to ring a bell to get back in. The price is cheap, so don't expect much. Internet was ok. Breakfast was eggs cooked to order, with rolls and coffee. Great place for backpackers or overnight stay. It is on a busy street, so it is a bit noisy.
We had a great stay at Huchuy Wasi. We stayed two nights either side of an island tour and they let us stay in the same room and stored our bags for us. The breakfast is excellent and the family who run it go out of their way to help you which was great. The shower was hot and the room, although basic was clean and comfortable.
Stayed here for two nights. Staff were very friendly and full of advice and recommendations. Between the two nights we stayed here we did an overnight tour of the islands and the the hotel were happy to look after our rucksacks while we were gone. Without doubt this has been the best value place we have stayed in over the last 3 months of traveling. Granted, the room was quite small but that didn´t matter at all. It was clean, had an excellent shower in the ensuite and had a TV. Also a good breakfast was included in the price.
The staff was sooooo nice with my friends and i. They kept our luggage while traveling to the floating island. They make breakfast for us even we were not gonna stay that day. They help us with everything during our time in Puno.
We arrived at 5:30 p.m. and the property was closed. We rang the bell and knocked for 15 minutes. I called the phone number on the reservation and it was disconnected. We walked by the next day and everything was still closed.

Great staff
Great staff, very helpful. Small room. Problems with water.
The staff were so helpful and friendly! I was there to apply a Bolivian visa, and they helped you with where to go and how to get it done. Very secure hostel. Clean room hot shower. It's very good value for money. The only down side is the wifi does not work most of the time. But other than that everything is perfect.
About 3 blocks from the main Lima Street where all the shops and restaurants are. The owner was very kind and accommodating. She offered the best tour prices.
la estancia fue relativamente tranquila, con excepción de la limpieza que tiene defectos en cuanto a los baños son incomodos muy pequeños salpica el agua al inodoro y las toallas un poco descuidados, las habitaciones no cuentan con mesitas y sillas para poder escribir o leer porque los hospedados estuvimos en un curso, también faltan roperos para ordenar la ropa que uno lleva para la estadia entre otras.
Kleines einfaches Hotel mit sehr aufmerksamen Eigentümer. Der von ihn organisierte Trip auf die Inseln ist auch sehr zu empfehlen (und wesentlich preiswerter als bei diversen Onlineanbietern, also vor Ort buchen).
Frühstück ist einfach aber gut ( frische Semmeln mit Marmelade und Rühreier).
El Hostal se rncuentra perfecto de ubicación, además de tranquilo y cómodo, lo recomiendo ampliamente, pero lo mejor es el Sr. que atiende, es una magnífica persona , te trata como de la familia y te hace sentir con mucha confianza y segutidad. Vayan ahí, no se arrepentirán
