- "Location was great. Comfortable clean friendly accommodating staff" - "There was so much to like about this hotel. The staff were excellent. They were friendly and went far above the norm in their desire to make us comfortable. For example, while we were eating it was quite chilly in the dining room. (This is normal at this time of the year in Cuenca where central heating is not common). They brought my wife a blanket to use as a shawl. They also provided an electrice heater for the room. The restaurant was wonderful. The food was delicious with very large portions. The included breakfast was about as good as I've ever seen at a buffet. There were a number of hot dishes like sausages, waffles, and scrambled eggs. Lots of tropical fruits, breads, cereals, cheeses, cold cuts, and more. The coffee was rich and flavorful.. And, it was all served on a rooftop level with a view of the city. The view was not the most beautiful, since much of it was of other buildings, but you can still see the mountains in several directions. The shower in the bathroom was huge. It had both a "rainwater" shower head and a handheld shower head. All of this was only about $60 including the breakfast. A real bargain winin an historic building with lots of antiques."
