    No lift.

    The hotel is in a beautiful old house. We liked best the nice patio where food is served. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

    Sometimes it gets noisy, morning when they start serving breakfast, sometimes people arriving and leaving at night and when they walk the wooden stairs is really noisy. Breakfast is every day the same, getting boring after a few days.

    Very helpful staff, place is in nice colonial house. Walking distance to everywhere, close to tram station. Most of the time is quiet.

    Because it’s in an old building and built around a central courtyard, noise carries. But they do have a strict curfew - at 10 each night, the TV goes off and the lights downstairs go out.

    Great location. Good-sized, nicely decorated room that was cleaned daily. You could refill your water bottle.

    Only a small inside window, but it didn't really bother me. Sometimes a slight musty smell due to moisture.

    Simple but nice room in a wonderful old building. Clean and quiet. Great included breakfast, very friendly staff.

    The room was very dark as all of the windows faced inwards. I had one window but people couold see directly in when walking past so I kept the curtain closed

    I only stayed here for one night and the hotel met my needs, it was comfortable with great wifi, the staff were super friendly and the breakfast was good. The hotel was a very short walk form the square and tram to the airport which was a great bonus! TIP: Make sure you get he tram which is only a dollar and 3 min walk to the hotel :)

    Bathroom was kind of dark. Hot, brewed local coffee would be welcome. Did not appreciate random TV shows or movies on for breakfast. Maybe soft music videos would be a better choice.

    Breakfast was tasty, made fresh for each guest. I think the coffee is instant but surprisingly good, not always real hot. The hotel has charming architecture and decor. It fits the location in the historic El Centro District which is fabulous. Most rooms open to the inner court yard so morning sounds can be heard. I upgraded to a street side room and stayed a week. This afforded me an outside balcony door and street noises which I welcomed. Staff was always kind and welcoming. I will be back!

    The staff was incredible. They were very friendly and attentive. The breakfast was nice and there is free coffee/tea/water refills. The inner dining courtyard is lovely and the hotel is only a few minutes’ walk from the main square and Cathedral. We extended our stay from 2 to 4 nights because the value for money is excellent compared to some other hotels in Cuenca. Cuenca itself is a beautiful city and well worth exploring.

    The bigger room was facing the street which made it very noisy. Also the curtains were so thin that they did not block out the lights from outside.

    I was moved to a bigger, nicer room which was unexpected.

    Noisy, sounds echoed everywhere. We booked a queen room and got a room with three small beds, awkward for a couple. Beds hard and uncomfortable. Breakfast rather limited.

    Absolutely charming old building with a courtyard, historical details everywhere. Good location right in the historical centre. Big rooms.

    • Double Room with Two Double Beds

    We booked a ''balcony with city views'' room with 2 double beds, but were given a small windowless room with 2 single beds. When we brought this to the hotel's attention and showed them the booking.com reservation they said that's not what they could see on their end. Eventually they moved us to a bigger room with a window, but seemed annoyed about it. This room had a motion sensor light near the bathroom that could not be deactivated, and would turn on in the night anytime the person in the bed closer to the bathroom rolled over. Beds were like rocks.

    I had two rooms due to some technical issues with my reservation, and in the first one I had zero water pressure and some warmish water. The second one had great water pressure and no hot water.

    Its and old colonial house with a great location and the staff are very attentive. The breakfast is simple but really good, they have coffee and tea available all day, it has good Wifi connection, and the rooms are good for the price.

    Booking.com rates this hotel as exceptional and 10 out of 10 rating. This was the main reason why I booked it in the first place. The photos are misleading because the hotel in real life is not as shown on the photos. We booked two rooms with double beds. One of them seemed to be fine and all in working order, but the other room didn't meet the same standards: loose curtain frames, very old balcony doors which failed to keep the noise and even the fumes of the vehicles out; the ventilation fan in the bathroom kept falling off with filthy dust; the electric plugs by the bedside table were not working. All in all, it was a room that was NOT ready to be let out. This is the reason why I'd like to claim to Booking.com my money back for this room.

    Very friendly staff.
