My stay at this boutique hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect for exploring Cuenca, and the stunning design added to the ambiance. However, I faced several issues with check-in and the noise levels in the rooms, which made for a less than ideal experience. The breakfast left a bit to be desired, and parking was inconvenient, especially on Sundays.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were beautifully furnished but quite small, and my first room had no outside window which limited natural light. I was later moved to a quieter room on the top floor which was better in that aspect.

Breakfast was included but could use improvement; the offerings were not very impressive, and the state of the crockery did not inspire confidence.

This boutique hotel exudes charm and history, making it a delightful place to stay. The rooms are well-decorated and comfortable, but they are a bit noisy during peak hours. The staff is very accommodating, and I appreciated the personal touch throughout my stay. While the breakfast was good, I felt a little more variety would elevate the dining experience. It's definitely a great choice for exploring the heart of Cuenca.

This hotel is a charming and unique boutique stay right in the heart of Cuenca. The colonial architecture adds a distinctive touch, making it a lovely place to relax. However, while the rooms are spacious and well-decorated, I did find that street noise could be a bit bothersome at times. The staff was accommodating, making the overall experience enjoyable but the lack of night food options can be inconvenient for late-night travelers.

I had a delightful stay at this charming colonial hotel, just a few blocks from the main square. The friendly staff made the experience even better, greeting us with a cocktail upon arrival. While the building is quite old, adding to its charm, the lack of soundproofing can be bothersome at times, especially with street noise and loud guests. Overall, it's a cozy spot with a lovely atmosphere, but not ideal for those sensitive to noise.
