"Really nice place. seems as though it was just updated. Personal care on the breakfast in the morning. Rooms have plenty of space, Village is 10 minute or so walk to either side to get to the Ruins. So peaceful, Keep in mind that the train station is a bit of a walk from this hotel. About 15 to 20 minutes, so best to get one of the Moto-Taxi. You cannot take large luggage on the train without a 25-50$ charge. They can hold your luggage in a securely at the station free while you go to Machu Picchu."
