It was my first time to Puna, but I hit the jackpot when I booked the Hotel Balsa Inn. Close to the main plaza and the main thoroughfare with all kinds of shops and restaurants, the hotel is super convenient to all that Puna has to offer. My room was clean and comfortable, and the spacious bathroom was particularly noteworthy (hot showers are sometimes hard to find in Peru!). Everyone at the front desk was incredibly helpful -- food recommendations, arranging tours, facilitating laundry services, etc. The breakfast buffet was a highlight -- lots of freshly-prepared options to start your day on a good note. If I ever return to Puno, I won't need to do a search for accommodations -- the Hotel Balsa Inn will be my first and only reliable choice.

This is a property of two halves. Staff are excellent, friendly and helpful. Great location of hotel. Our room (3 single beds) was right by entrance to dining hall, the shower ‘window’ opened into staff hall and where public caught elevator to their rooms. The bathroom was covered in mould (ceiling, shower etc) the shower would was woeful, freezing cold one second and billing hot the second. The bedroom ‘window’ couldn’t be opened as backed onto staff quarters.

As expected for the price and decent location for the central plaza and port. We had arranged an early check in for 7am, and arrived a bit earlier, but were able to access our room. Decent sized twin beds. Room was a bit dated and the only window was out into the main corridor so couldn't really have the curtain open. Generally seemed clean, but the floor was a bit grubby. We had to leave early in the morning before breakfast, but they kindly arranged a breakfast for us to takeaway.

Terrible experience with their brokered taxi service. We ordered private taxi service from JUL airport to Puno via the hotel. We waited at the arrival gate until we were the last passengers left and the driver never showed us. I called the hotel multiple times, they either couldn't understand my questions in English, or deliberately led me wait without giving any response. We finally decided to take the shared van and I left a message to the hotel on Expedia where I did the booking, and the hotel staff never checked my message (not read) even after our checkout. Our check-in was also not very smooth. They couldn't find the key to our room and after 5 min of futile search had to give us another one. Our room is really weird, there is no ventilation fan in bathroom so it had a small window/opening towards outside. Except in our room it that opening was to the corridor! That raised some privacy concerns. Buffet breakfast is fairly basic but for this price no complaints. Overall I just can’t recommend a hotel that can’t keep up its promises/services especially when it was mostly relied upon.

A Old hotel but clean. The location is OK, near the plaza, only 3 minutes walk. A Quite area, and not suitable for walking alone near the hotel. Bad Service because I have left some clothes in the bathroom and then check out to the Lake Titikaka. I have returned to the hotel to take the luggage in the afternoon, the staff have not remind me that there is some clothes I have left in the bath room.
