    Breakfast was ok but nothing exceptional

    Nice place - not right in the centre but still it has a good position, We had a room at the front with a seating area and windows out on to the street. Slight trade off with street noise/Music from the shop opposite for the light and balcony but with the windows closed the noise was ok. Very helpful staff including Empanada the cat who was really in charge

    I didn't like that I couldn't catnap Empanada.

    First off, the staff were all super helpful and booked a couple of day trips for me. They don't have a tourist agency there so the staff was able to find something for me cheaper than I could on my own. And the trips were great! Now, any review would be incomplete without a mention of Empanada. She is the best cat in Ecuador (undisputed) but also quite possibly the entirety of South America. I love her. Also the rooms are very clean and comfortable! But....Empanada. She is everything.

    No major point. Just there are two lovely friendly cats. I'm allergic it has been a little issue once one came to say hi. Nothing to complain about the place

    A really nice hotel well located in the center. The place is quiet and is a nice location to rest in Cuenca near the Cathedral, the artists street and floral marketl. The personal is kind, available and really helpful. Bars and restaurants are at walking distance. The breasfast is delicious. Our room was cosy and clean next to a bright resting area. You have everything to enjoy a good stay in Cuenca definitely a family place to stay

    The location was perfect, very central to the old town. Really lovely interior and design, warm and clean with a beautiful inner patio, the rooms are kind of in a little village almost with cute windows, the room was very comfortable and the bed was so soft and perfect. Delicious breakfast with lots of options, the staff are friendly and so helpful. Highlight has to be the three cats, especially chunky empanada <3

    Just be aware there is a cat in the public spaces of the house (not in the rooms), so maybe not the best choice with cat allergy

    Very nice and welcoming staff, very clean and quiet space, good, freshly prepared breakfast. Great location for visiting Cuenca. We had a great time!

    Everything was just wonderful! The staff, the rooms, the breakfast, the location - everything. They helped me with every question or inquiry I had, the breakfast was fresh with healthy choices and good coffee ;-) also, the hotel is completely plastic free, which I greatly admire and support. I already recommended the hotel today to some of my colleagues! They will book you the next time, when they are in Cuenca. Thank you again for everything!!!
