The hotel is located in a good neighborhood in the downtown area of Cuenca, it was safe and we were able to walk and go shopping without any fear. The breakfast was excellent and the service was right on point. Darwin and Cristina were very helpful with information about the area. I will definitely stay in this hotel again.

Cuenca stay
A wonderful boutique hotel in the heart of Cuenca. The staff here is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and bathrooms new and clean. Within walking distance of most attractions in Cuenca, restaurants, shopping and the Parque Caldron. Free parking is a great added benefit. We will return on our next visit.
