I wouldn't recommend this to friends or family at all.
LOCATION: First off we're RIGHT ON the train tracks (I mean the hotel is called Ferré after all). So every time the train passes you not only hear it, you feel it. But at least we're a short walk away from everything.
ROOMS: We ended up in a small inner room where the only window opens out into the communal hallway by the elevator, so it doesn't make sense to open it. But even if it was a real window to the outside of the building, regardless we shouldn't open the window, because the mosquitos are really bad in Aguas Calientes, and there's no bug screens on any windows. That wouldn't be a problem except there's ZERO VENTILATION. Not a fan in the bathroom, or any way to circulate the air in the room. After a shower it quickly becomes so hot, stuffy and humid that we ended up leaving the door to the hallway ajar to get some airflow!!! Crazy. They don't even provide a hair dryer.
Service at the front desk seems fine. Not by any means exemplary.
Our Inca Trail tour company booked this hotel for us. My only feedback to them would be to not book this hotel for their guests again, because otherwise this has been a fabulous trip. Only this hotel has been the one thing to mar the experience.
