The water in the bathtub doesn't go down and the water in the sink also stays put. The towels all had stains, the pillows too, and the sheets smelled bad. The same person who checks you in is the same person who prepares your room without any kind of cleaning care.

The place is good but the staff - on the phone - was unhelpful and sometimes a bit rude. The staff onsite was very nice, not sure what was going on there. The hotel is very pretty.

Many mosquitoes in the room, no heater, poor wifi connection, moldy tiles, light that doesn’t work, and hairs of previous guests in shower and on the floor. Stale breakfast. Very disappointing hotel except for the location. Booked 2 nights but left after one night.

WiFi did not work for entire visit It was hard to regulate the shower water each morning. The sink is designed in such a way that if you are not careful the faucet sprays right into you. It wet me Big time. There is no ventilation in room - except for a window that leads to hallway so you have to balance between keeping it open for some air and therefore hearing all the noise from the hallway/ street.

When we arrived late night there was no hot water. The staff worked diligently to get the issue fixed. This is a family run hotel where they take pride in providing a great stay for their guests. From meeting us at the station to preparing a sack breakfast for our early morning adventure to Machu Picchu the service was excellent. We spent two nights here and had a wonderful experience.

Hotel Retama is about half way up the hill in Agua Calliente. It is easy to find. As with all the hotels, there are lots of stairs. Make sure you request a room on the lower floors if you can't do stairs. The staff were great, and the breakfast was good. There were 10 in our group and we were able to go to Machu Picchu early in the morning, leave our bags there and have their staff deliver the bags to the train station. What a great service! It was very noisy at this hotel. It sounded like we were three doors down from a disco that didn't stop their music until around 4:00 am. We were told there was a celebration the night we stayed there for the anniversary of the village. So, not sure if it is that noisy normally.
