"Pues primero la reservacion no estaba al valor en la q salia en la aplicación, la habitación sonaba mucho el piso al caminar también sali del hotel a caminar por la noche y al regresar no habia quien nos apertura la puerta en la recepción, adicional cuando baje por el desayuno a las 8 y 45 me supieron decir q el hotel solo servía el desayuno hasta las 8 y 30 de la mañana pues para mi fue una pésima experiencia en el hotel por eso decidí retirarme al siguiente día"

Mansión Alcázar Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel muy lindo y su encanto especial, lo único un poco incomodo la cama muy pequena"

Hotel Boutique La Ronda by Chat Noir

8/10 Good

"It is a very cute hotel in the center of of Cuenca's historic district close to very good restaurants. The neighborhood is safe and clean. That being said, it is a busy loud area and my room had a street side balcony. So if you have sleep issues this isn't a good choice for you. The amenities were few but I did appreciate being able to refill my water. Also, I found the cats adorable but if you are allergic you need to be aware of them."

Hotel Boutique Santa Lucia

10/10 Excellent

"Bonito y cerca de todo…"
