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 hotel is located right at the gate of national park. It's quiet with a beautiful remote view but still able to stroll down to the city through inca trail which is a walk we all loved. We lived there for a week, and all got underweather with food poison. Our hosts, romulus took care of us like family, helped with medicine, cooking and changing our itinerary with flexibility. We loved our stay there, relaxing in their garden with a herb tea from their own grown.
