Motorcycle storage in Cusco

Hello all,

I'm looking for a place to securely store my motorcycle in Cusco for about four weeks (26/05 until 22/06).

Anybody knows any options? I've emailed to some motorcycle touring companies, I'm waiting to hear back from them.

Hostal La Estrellita seems to be another option, but I can't find any contact information for them..

Any suggestions are welcome!
Bart

Yup I concur, he's got 2 of my bikes at the moment. Good bloke, very professional. There are about 4 bike tour companies in Cusco. Peru motors is just up from the police station.

Is he still taking bikes? I keep referring people to him, but not sure if he still has room.

His storage are was pretty tight when I was there. But he'd be able to swing something I'm sure of it, he did mention about buying a second place soon. Also, the going rate if anyone is interested is $50 per bike per month. (correct as of December 2018)

That's good news, do you know how much storage they have and their rates? Might be useful for anyone searching this later on.

Price was 5 soles per day, so that makes about 45 USD per month at the current exchange rate. The bike is stored in the courtyard, so I bought a cheap cover on the market.

I think they can easily store 5 motorcycles. And there is a store room where you can leave your boots & helmet.

The hostel itself is a bit rundown, but has a good atmosphere & basic breakfast. 20 soles for a night in a dorm room (excl. bike parking). And centrally located, which I liked very much.

Unfortunately no way to contact them (at least I didn't find any phone number, Facebook, booking.com,..) so just show up and ask the friendly owners.
