Hostal Desert

It’s fine if you’re looking for a cheap place, but we ended up with a windowless room that got super humid after a shower, there was barely enough space to open our luggage, and the front desk was often empty.

“Clean, excellent staff, superb value”

Our room had a clean ensuite bathroom, and both rooms were spotless. The staff cleaned rooms and replaced towels daily. The shared kitchen was well stocked with coffee, teas—including coca and chachacoma for altitude sickness—and condiments for easy cooking, plus a washing machine for guests. Manager Juan Pablo spoke fluent English and Spanish and helped organize tours, transport, or anything else in San Pedro. It’s about a 10‑minute walk from the centre, which explains the lower price but still made it great value; we didn’t mind the walk. The room was quite small and would have benefited from more hanging space; a shelving unit was available for luggage, folded clothes, and other items.

The staff and the service they gave were excellent.

“Great place to stay”

Breakfast and rooms were great, but it was a bit of a walk into town.

“Ruhige Lage, schöner Aufenthalt”

The room was nice, the water pressure in the shower was good and the hot water was plentiful, and the bed was comfortable. The communal kitchen made self‑catering very easy, and the optional breakfast for 10 USD was very generous. The bus terminal is a 5 min walk away, well‑stocked mini‑markets are 2 min, and the centre is about a 10 min walk; tours are usually picked up at the hostel. Pablo was always there and approachable, and he recommended great tours—thanks again for that! The room might feel a bit small for two people with larger luggage.
