About
Blacky Hostel And Apartments (Adults Only) - Cusco
Blacky Hostel And Apartments sits on Calle Tambo De Montero, about a minute's walk from Cusco's Plaza de Armas. The property blends hostel-style social spaces with apartment comforts: a shared kitchen, a garden, and a lounge with board games. Guests can choose from single rooms, doubles, a loft, or dormitories where capsule-style beds offer extra privacy.
The hostel runs adults-only, so the vibe stays calm and social rather than chaotic. Breakfast, tea, and coffee are included, and the staff are known for going out of their way — helping with tours, storing luggage, and recommending local spots. With Wi-Fi throughout and a paid airport shuttle, it covers the practical side of a Cusco stay without fuss.
