We really enjoyed our stay in Cuenca at Patricio's apartment. The location is perfect! You exit the building and will find yourself in the beautiful historical district of Cueca. While some of the aesthetics and amenities in the apartment are dated, the bedroom views and quaint charm will win you over. Also, Patricio was a wonderful host. He even took the time to sit down with us and mark up a map with tons of recommendations.

Great, spacious apartment right in the center of Cuenca with an amazing rooftop view. Couldn't ask for more!

This is a charming little spot with a spiral staircase, hardwood floors, full kitchen, and great light in the bedroom. We had a wonderful stay. I recommend Live Green Superfoods on Gran Columbia for great smoothies. Just a block away. Excellent location manages to be right in the middle of things while still quiet as can be for sleeping. Only detractors were that the place could use a fresh coat of paint, and the wifi was pretty finicky.

This was a wonderful place to stay close to the main square in the beautiful historic section of Cuenca. The apartment is in the quiet side of the building, and has a comfortable bed.

Patricio's place is very modern and is in an excellent location relative to the city center. The space itself is very modern and chic. Overall, his place has excellent value.

Este es un departamento muy lindo y bien ubicado. Patricio es un buen anfitrión y nos trataba muy bien. Si vuelo a Cuenca me quedo en este lugar! Era una buena experiencia! Gracias y hasta la próxima!

The location is perfect in the historic part of town which allows you to walk almost everywhere. This city is pretty safe so it was easy to come and go at any hour. Patricio was very attentive as well.

La ubicación es ideal para explorar Cuenca; era muy conveniente. Patricio es muy simpatico. El lugar fue bueno para la intimidad.

Die Wohnung war super ,sehr geräumig , Genau wie Beschrieben , sauber, Central und doch sehr ruhig und sicher gelegen. Vielen Dank Fernando es war toll.

This apartment was amazing. It was quiet, clean and very well equipped. Fernando even supplied some groceries for us on arrival. He gave us a comprehensive tour of the apartment when we arrived. There was secure parking and the whole building was very safe. We were able to walk where we wanted to go. This apartment is highly recommended.

Fernando's apartment was all we hoped it would be, and more. From the pictures (and the reviews) we knew it would be a beautiful, modern apartment. But we couldn't believe how wonderful the location was. It is a five minute walk to El Centro -- the heart of the city. Yet, in being just outside of the old city, it was also a quiet, residential haven. It is right around the corner to Parque de la Madre--a beautiful, vibrant park. Within walking distance of the supermarket and the soccer stadium (for you soccer fans). And Fernando was always kind and responsive.

El lugar es excelente, muy bien ubicado, amplio y limpio. Contaba con todo lo necesario para disfrutar de tu estadía en Cuenca. Mencioné que la ubicación es perfecta? El anfitrión Fernando es muy buena onda y estaba tan amable de encontrarnos en el aeropuerto. 100% recomendable. Gracias Fernando. Nos veremos pronto! The place is excellent, well located, spacious and clean. It has all the necessary amenities for your stay in Cuenca. Did I mention it was well located? The host, Fernando, is great and was kind enough to meet us at the airport. 100% recommended. Thank you Fernando. We will see each other soon!

He was super responsive and was waiting for are arrival and walked us through everything ans asked if we need anything. His attention to detail and friendliness was excellent! Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Hermoso departamento, con todas las comodidades y perfecta ubicación. No faltó nada. Fernando, el anfitrión, es una persona muy amable y colaboradora. Totalmente recomendable.

Fernando's apartment was more than we had hoped for. He is a terrific host. Cuenca was beautiful. I just wish we could have stayed longer. When we come back we definitely will stay at this apartment again. Lee and Amy

Very good location. Walking distance to the center of the city but very quite area. It was a new and modern apt. Fernando did a very good job accommodate us. I really enjoyed staying.

Really enjoyed the apartment. Close to the historical center and very clean and neat. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great stay here and everything was perfect. The best thing was the location as we were in walking distance from everything. We would definitely stay again!

apartment looks very nice with a high ceiling,good communication with a host only needs a larger table,will stay again

Rita's place was very well located, easy to get any transport, very clean and comfortable, you have everything to make your stay fantastic and enjoyable.

Rita was a wonderful host! We enjoyed their studio located in their private and very safe compound just 4 blocks from the main square but far enough for peace at night. We will definitely be back if we come to Cuenca again. Thanks for a beautiful time here!

Un excelente lugar para quedarse. Buena ubicación y con varios locales de comida y vida nocturna cerca. El departamento es impecable, el dueño es muy amable, atento y siempre a disposición si llegaras a necesitar algo. Cuando entregamos las llaves al rato de irnos, ofreció llevarnos al terminal, lo cual apreciamos mucho. El lugar es acogedor y moderno, con todo lo que se pudiera necesitar - incluso una tienda convenientemente situada al frente del edificio. Está cerca del centro si usas taxi, los cuales toman unos 5 minutos en llegar allá. La Calle larga está más cerca aún (en la misma dirección), pero como hay que subir escalinatas, puede tomar más tiempo de lo pensado (depende la condición física, jaja). Ahora, como los taxis son muy económicos, realmente la ubicación está más que bien. Sinceramente, volvería a quedarme ahí sin pensarlo 2 veces.

Una experiencia agradable, todo en perfecto estado, lo recomiendo

Excelente ubicación para quedarse, el departamento es muy cómodo y tiene todos los servicios. Gustavo es un excelente anfitrión y estuvo siempre dispuesto a ayudar.

Un gran anfitrión, un departamento muy cómodo y cerca de todo en Cuenca.

Clean, beautiful And quiet. A great value and an accesible host. A great first for our family!

Gustavo is an awesome host! The apartment is just as the image and in walking distance to the old downtown. Great place! Gracias Gustavo!

Great place to stay. Close to everything and very secure. They had secure on-site parking, which is awesome.

Súper recomendado, todo excelente, un lugar súper cómodo.

Amazing location, very friendly, good value. We only stayed a night, Cuenca definitely merits a few more for sure. The place is very well located, just a few minutes walk from Plaza Calderon, but far enough away so it's not too manic. The space is also quite cool, a few apartment style rooms in a soon to be opened hotel. I highly recommend staying here.

Excelente lugar y atención por parte de nestor

Nestor knows exactly how to make your stay for the best ! perfect place confortable nice clean and pleasant !

Good apartment in the center of city. Realy hot water and good internet, which is rare for Ecuador. Also Nestor is very nice and friendly host. I was glad to spend there 18 days.

El departamento es en extremo estratégico es central a 5 minutos de la catedral. Perfecta ubicación. Con una vista hermosa. El departamento esta muy bien para una pareja o viajero individual. Muy limpio todo y Nestor siempre está dispuesto a ayudar es un edificio renovado totalmente. Y si quieren hospedar más personas pueden hablar con él y les dará varias opciones. Gracias por todo

Néstor is an amazing host and his work ethic and passion carries over to his accommodations. He is beyond helpful and provides a lot more amenities and daily use products than other venues. We were in the apartment # 2, it's a cute and clean studio apartment fully equipped for an efficient stay. It is located only 2 blocks from Calderon park and the historical cathedral. The location + Nestor made the visit to Cuenca ten folds better as we explored many cafes/restaurants, beautiful architecture and real daily life that surrounded the apartment in all directions. We would love to come back to Cuenca and would definitely stay with him again. Sad about leaving this town!

A very good place to stay, close to all the activities, restaurant and city attractions ! Nestor is very friendly and helpful !

Amabilidad 100%, un lugar muy cómodo y acogedor.

Rolandio was a great host! He was flexible when it came to our check in time and was very kind to provide and extra room for my friend to ensure we would be comfortable during our short stay. The Appartment was very nice: it was clean, and had everything we needed. He even provided with enough food for breakfast when we arrived! I will definitely book it again for my next stay on Cuenca!

This apartment was the perfect spot in El Centro, Cuenca! It was a great studio size for two people, clean, and equipped with everything you need to stay comfortably, including a kitchen where you can cook dinner with the freshest produce from the local Mercado or a grocery store-both close). It is in fantastic and safe location, convenient walking distance to everything. It is located 1/2 block in from Calle Larga, which is the main street with lots of shops, restaurants, and bars. It is also less than a five-minute walk to a beautiful river called the Tomebamba and Parque de la Madre. It is just a 10 minute walk the main Square (Parque Calderon) in town and the famous new Cathedral. Because it is just off the main street, it was not only convenient, but very quiet, so we had no problem sleeping at night. Rolendio and his family were so kind and welcoming from the moment we got there. Their son Diego also owns a gym 2 floors under the apartment, and is fluent in English, which was helpful for us :) I was able to work out at his gym, for a great daily rate. It has brand new equipment and was perfect for my stay! I highly recommend staying here when you visit Cuenca!

Roldenio and his family are simply the most wonderful people and such gracious hosts. The apartment was fantastic, super clean and has everything you would ever need. The gym downstairs is a huge bonus. The location is just a block off of the Main Street with bars, restaurants, etc. so it is ideal to get everywhere but very quiet and private at night. The space is a wonderful value for the money. I would highly recommend staying there!

I was quite surprised how nice this place is. It is a perfectly self contained apartment with all amenities for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect, near the center, but away from noisy bars, discos and busy streets. Rolendio is a wonderful host, a very kind man who spent lots of his time helping me, showing me things, and taking care of all my needs quickly. I feel sad about leaving since I really felt at home here. On my next visit to Cuenca I will certainly stay here again, and hopefully much longer to explore more of this wonderful city and its surroundings. Rolendio's place is a perfect home base for this.

El departamento es muy cómodo y está muy bien ubicado en el centro histórico de Cuenca. Rolendio y su familia fueron muy amables y atentos, siempre pendientes de lo que necesitáramos desde que llegamos hasta que nos fuimos. Recomiendo esté departamento a cualquier persona que visite la ciudad. Muchas gracias por todo!!!

Comodidad, buena comunicación con el anfitrión y accesible a pie.

Great place, easy access to anything you want to do. Beautiful part of the city, take lots of pictures.

José's apartment is perfect for a stay in Cuenca. It's within walking distance to the city center, and is easy to navigate from and to the apartment. The apartment includes all the best amenities, including a washer and dryer. My only complaint is that I couldn't stay longer in Cuenca, it's a fantastic city!

The host's communication was very good. You could hear the radio station broadcasts start early in the morning, but it made you feel safe having them next door. The shared wifi was not very fast, but it was reliable. It was really convenient to have a washer & dryer. There was not a SuperMaxi nearby, but it is easy to catch taxis or a bus since you're on a main road and easy to walk to El Centro.

As advertised and would stay there again

Perfect accomodation. We had the entire place with living room, kitchen, bedroom, washer/dryer, bathroom. Lots of closet space. Supermaxi grocery store nearby $2.00 taxi. Downtown Cuenca only 8 blocks away. We love the fact that we were able to cook and do our laundry. We had a fantastic time. Highly recommend!

Un super séjour dans l'appartement, il est confort et tout équipé! Sa situation très proche du centre le rend très agréable et on le droit à un accueil avec le sourire le top! Je recommande!

This apartment is perfect. 2 bedrooms and one bathroom. Large very usable kitchen and living area. It is about 1km from the city center. But it is a pleasant walk. And what a beautiful city. Vienna, Florence, Paris, and Switzerland rolled up into one city.

We really enjoyed our stay in Cuenca! The hospitality we were given was amazing! Jose was out of town on business, so his mom Fabiola and his dad Gustavo took great care of us. Our flights into and out of Cuenca were cancelled so we had to take a bus at 4am, Fabiola dropped us off. Thanks for allowing us to share your space! Would definitely stay again.

Excellent experience! Highly recommend the apartment to anyone wanting to explore Cuenca.

Only two nights in Cuenca at Xaviers place, but I am sure, unforgettable for us! First of all, our room was directly beside the river so we felt asleep with the sound of the flowing powerful water, amazing! Then, Xavier and his daughter Samantha were so helpful and open-hearted. We asked him about hiking in Cajas, for a bit of fuel money he even brought us to the starting point which was pretty far away. The hike itself, unforgettable! Pure nature, no people, felt like in scottish highlands combined with lush rainforest. In the evening we went to a great restaurant and bar which Samantha told us to go. All in all: we felt fantastic in Cuenca. We will definitely come back to Xaviers place! Thank you so much.

El departamento es fiel reflejo de la descripcion. Es como un hotel en realidad. En general todo fue bueno, mas bien excelente, la atencion de su anfitrion. La ubicacion del apartamento es excelente y esta cerca de restaurantes y dos malls. La cama fue muy comoda. Sin duda, recomiendo esta ubicación. ::: This location was just like the photos and very clean and comfortable. The staff were extremely nice and accommodating. A 10 min walk will take you to Calle Grande where EVERYTHING is. There were also two malls less than a 10 min drive away. Very cool people in Cuenca. Cant wait to return and I would stay at Xavier's place again!

Apartamentos Otorongo was a great residence to stay. We had a perfect time. Type apartment was clean en comfortable and was near the river. With the sound of the river on the background you fell right at sleep. The owner Xavier is a real nice guy and als is type staff. When ever go back tot Ceunca we take the apartment again. It is a ten minuten nice walk to the center. The apartment has a great garden, you can was your clothes hand sit by the diverse. We recommend it anytime!

En Apartamentos Otorongo pudimos sentirnos como en casa. La calidez y amabilidad de los anfitriones es única. Pudimos descanzar con mucha tranquilidad con el arrullo de río. El sector es óptimo porque se alcanza con mucha facilidad a la zona centro de la ciudad y también a la salida para alcanzar los al rededores de Cuenca. Sin duda repetiremos esta experiencia. Muy recomendado.

Nos gusto mucho el lugar. El trato por parte del anfitrión fue excelente. El apartamento estaba en muy buen estado y bien equipado. Lo recomiendo 100%

Peaceful, warm, and welcoming, Otorongo Apartments is the perfect place to explore Cuenca! The apartment building is right next to the river and filled with lush and beautiful gardens. I unfortunately fractured my kneecap during my stay in Cuenca, and Xavier and his wonderful staff did everything in their power to make sure we were accommodated, happy, and healthy. Whether you're staying for one night or one month, I can't recommend this place more!

My wife and I were making our first visit to Cuenca, and wanted a place near the central old town area, but not in it. Xavier's place is right on the river, near the river walk, and an easy 10 minute walk to Plaza de San Sebastian. So it well met our criteria. The apartment in which we stayed was a basic but clean and comfortable unit, and in a small complex of maybe 10 units, with some being a little more upscale. It was a good value for the money, and had a most comfortable bed, good hot shower, wifi, and satellite TV with some English language stations. Xavier and his staff were exceptionally helpful, the other residents (some of whom were long term) were quite enjoyable, and the property was dog friendly, which I regard as a major plus. I would definitely stay there again! Thanks, Xavier!

Great location. Friendly, great host and so accommodating. The guests love this place. People moving to Ecuador stay here as well as tourists. Even the bed was great.

Patricia ist eine liebenswerte und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin. Die Kommunikation war herzlich aber unaufdringlich. Die Wohnung liegt an einer viel befahrenen Kreuzung. Daher ist sie - wie auch vorher schon beschrieben - leider ziemlich laut. Insgesamt gibt es drei Betten. 2 Einzelbetten, die wir zusammen geschoben haben und ein kleines Queensizebett. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, leider ohne warmes Wasser, bzw. Wasserkocher, so dass man Kaffee- und auch Spülwasser auf dem 6 flammigen Gasherd warm macht. In beiden Badezimmern gibt es auch nur an den Duschen (mit Elektroduschköpfen) warmes Wasser. Wir würden, primär wegen des Lärms, aber auch wegen der Warmwassersituation nicht mehr hier wohnen wollen, obwohl Patricia, wie gesagt, eine sehr sehr gute Gastgeberin ist.

My wife snd I have enjoyed our stay here. The apartment is spacious and the location is excellent.Patricia has been a wonderful host. Both her and her sister are great people and I could easily see us as friends. When I return to Cuenca, if available, this is where we will stay.

Patricia is a great host, and the apartment is amazing. Highly recommended!

Patricia was very welcoming and the apartment couldn't have been better location wise. We watched the Pase del Niño parade right from the balcony.

Patricia was a very accommodating host. She was very responsive to our questions. She was awesome with our early check-out, even helping us call a cab to the airport. The place is impeccably clean and neat and has a great antique feel. It is in the old part of town with lots of city sounds, and within walking distance to many shops, restaurants and plazas. It was nice to be right in the thick of things. We would definitely stay there again!

You will not find a more wonderful or gracious host... Patricia went well above and beyond to make my stay most enjoyable. She had a day off, and showed me around the area, and most anything you would need, or like to see, is within walking distance. There is a great little place "Casamigos" directly across the street from her door, who's owner (Wil) speaks English, (and was extremely helpful with advice and translations) where I was able to enjoy daily espresso's, along with a few breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. Great wifi too. The apartment as I said is in an extremely convenient location. I feel very rewarded by my visit to Cuenca, as I have made some special friends for life. I cannot thank Patricia enough, nor her wonderful sister Anita, and son Mauricio, for making my visit to Cuenca a most enjoyable experience. You will leave Cuenca loving Patricia and her family, hopefully as much as I do.

Teníamos un buen viaje en este apartamento en Cuenca. Patricia era tan amable. Ella nos ofrecío frutas frescas cuando llegamos. También, ella nos ayudó mucho con recomendaciones sobre Cuenca. El apartamento tenía todo que necesitamos y estaba bien úbicada en el centro histórica.

Bonne expérience dans ce logements très bien placé, idéal pour visité le centre historique à pieds

This was one of my best airbnb experiences yet! My husband and I stayed here with our two month old daughter and Miryam was the most amazing host. She doted on our baby and even surprised us with a small gift for her. The price was very reasonable. The location is perfect. It was wonderful to have hot tea right away upon check-in on a cold Cuenca night. The second night she had even saved some delicious birthday cake for us. She offered great suggestions for food in the area. I highly recommend the breakfast she offers!It was absolutely perfect, it totally hit the spot. She even had a type of delicious bread which my Ecuadorian husband had never had. Even though you are in the heart of the bustling city it is very peaceful in the house as it is set back from the street quite a ways. There is also a locked parking area which is perfect as parking in Cuenca can be a challenge. I can't wait return and take advantage of Miryam's hospitality again. Very highly recommended!!

Accueil très chaleureux de Miryam qui nous a fait partager sa maison pendant trois jours en veillant à ce notre séjour à Cuenca soit le meilleur possible. Bien que nous parlions peu l'espagnol, nous avons beaucoup échangé; nous avons également apprécié ses talents de guide et les bons petits déjeuners... Le coeur de la ville est proche et on s'y rend facilement à pied en découvrant la vie locale. Nous avons senti que, pour Miryam, c'était un bonheur que d'accueillir des touristes dans sa maison.

La casa de Miryam es muy agradable, ella y su familia siempre se preocupan por nuestro bien estar. La ubicación es bastante práctica ya que se encuentra a poca distancia del centro histórico de la ciudad. Recomendadísimo para quienes aman sentirse como en casa ! Miryam's house is really a very nice place to stay, you will surely feel at home ! She is a very nice person, and will do the most to make your stay even better. The house is near of the historical center of the city, so you have a lot to discover around the place ! Highly recommended for those who love to feel like home ! La maison de Miryam est très agréable. C'est une hôte vraiment très gentille, qui se préoccupera toujours pour votre bien-être et n'hésitera pas à vous recommander les meilleurs restaurants, divertissements et bien sûr les monuments et endroits incontournables de la ville qui a beaucoup à offrir. La maison se trouve près du centre historique, très agréable à faire à pied. Je recommande vivement la maison de Miryam pour que votre séjour à Cuenca n'en soit que meilleur !

Tu Parada en Cuenca tiene una ubicación excelente. Miryam estuvo muy pendiente de nuestras necesidades y nos ayudó a hacer que nuestra visita a la ciudad cumpliera nuestras expectativas. Tiene lavadora y secadora a disposición lo que nos ayudó con un pequeño accidente que tuvimos en la maleta. Miryam tiene mucho conocimiento de la ciudad y su historia, y saca el tiempo para compartir caminatas o recomendar lugares. La cocina esta bien equipada y un lugar seguro donde aparcar el carro. Lo recomiendo 100%.

Tudo saiu melhor que a expectativa. As informações passadas pela anfitriona foram exatas. Facilmente encontramos a casa, e fomos recebidos com deliciosos café e torta! Tamanha simpatia e receptividade, fez que sentissimos em casa! Adoramos! Grato, Myrian!

Un lugar muy tranquilo, ambiente acogedor, Miryam nos hizo sentir en familia es muy amable y atenta con nosotros. Si estas en Cuenca te recomendamos hospedarte en Tu parada en Cuenca de Miryam Andrade.

Большой красивый чистый дом где живёт дружелюбная семья. Ночью абсолютно тихо. Никаких нареканий. Спасибо за гостеприимство!

Miryam is really a nice and friendly person. I enjoyed very much staying at her place. The room was nice, quiet, clean with a comfortable bed. The Wi-Fi was very good. The house is close to the center. It takes only 10 minutes walk to get there. Miryam always prepared a nice breakfast for us, we talked about many topics and talking with her it improved my Spanish immensely. If I come back to Cuenca I will definitely stay at Miryam's place again. I highly recommend it to the others.

Therese is a wonderful person with open and kind heart. Her home is clean, breakfast was variable, shower has a hot water, room sufficient comfortable, moreover there is a nice room for do yoga. In case if you want improve your Spanish Therese is excellent helper, lessons were great and she helped me with Spanish during hour conversations. For sure if I will be back to Cuenca one day I will stay in Therese house again.

I had a fantastic time in Cuenca. Therese house was in the prefect location, short walking distance to the historical places. Both Therese and Mark were very good host, they actually did a surprise airport pickup for me, which was very nice. They know their city well and are able to give good suggestions on places to visit. Will definitely stay at their place again if I'm back in Cuenca.

La casa de Therese es muy linda, cerca del centro y de todo. Therese y su marido son muy amables. La habitación no tiene llave, el cuarto de baño se comparte y hay un gallo que canta cada mañana a las 6, pero excepto todo eso, todo fue muy bien. Therese's house is very nice, near everything. Therese and her husband are very kind. The room doesn't have key and can't be closed, the bathroom has to be shared, a cock sings everyday at 6am, but except this, everything was fine!

Y had to cancel my trip at the last moment because f a serios illness in my family. Therese was very understanding and sympathetic. I intend to visit her next year.

Therese and Mark were very welcoming and friendly. They have a lovely home in a nice part of El Centro nearby to Parque San Blas. They were accommodating with everything and invited me to join them on local excursions with family on the weekends. They both speak English, and Therese's professional Spanish lessons included in the package were excellent. She also helped me with translations of documents that I needed. I would recommend staying with the Valliers, especially if you would like to improve your Spanish.

We had a wonderful time in Cuenca, thanks to Therese! Muhas gracias por todo :)

Thérèse est très agréable et aime faire partager sa ville. Un accueil familial, mon fils s'est senti comme chez sa grand mère

The stay at Terry and Marks was enjoyable. The location is good for walking to centro. The rooms are off the street so very quiet. The shared bathroom is modern with plenty of hot water. We had kitchen access and filtered water to drink. Mark was a big help with local info as well as a friendly sociable fellow. Terry was also available to assist our every need. We would stay here again!

Close to the airport/bus terminal and perfect for a stopover before an early morning departure. Gary was friendly, communicative and a pleasure to deal with. Would recommend.

Gary is an excellent host. We loved his place. It was beautiful and clean, the beds were new and the rooms are very comfortable. He prepared a delicious breakfast for us. The garaje was very good. He was attentive to our arrival and he indicated us the places near of the house like markets, banks, pharmacies and the places in the city that we could visit too.

La casa de Gary es genial y como anfitrrion es insuperable, el desayuno que prepara es muy rico y balanceado. Superrecomendable!!

Gary is an awesome guy. Friendly, he knows what we need. It's neat and clean place to live. Awesome breakfast. He is a knowledgeable person. He knows the city and suggests places also. And that karaoke evening was awesome. Will be back soon. Thank you Gary

Ausgezeichnete Unterkunft mit leckerem Frühstück und hervorragendem Gastgeber! Sehr zu empfehlen!

Very nice place. Good bedrooms and perfect location. Highly recommended.

My stay with Pilar was amazing. She is a great host. She showed us the cool things to do in Cuenca as tourists.

Pilar is a wonderful host. She is knowledgeable and willing to help. The room is spacious, clean and comfortable. All amenities are present. It's a pity that I lived there only 2 days and half of the time I had altitude sickness. So I'd like to visit Cuenca again and I definitely recommend Homestay with Ecua-Mama. Thank you Pilar!

okay spot, but you get what you pay for. seems to be a place where other ppl stay and can help each other. bathroom could be a bit cleaner, and the photos are a bit nicer than reality. having said that, pilar was readily waiting for us when we finally arrived at midnight, very understanding!

Pilar is a great host, my only complaint is I didn't find her sooner, she saved me from a terrible hostel situation. I wish I couldve stayed longer. Pilar has a beautiful apartment thats clean and has hot water with great water pressure, she's very helpful and full of energy and life. 5 stars

Pilar is a wealth of information and made us feel so welcome!!)

Pilar es el mejor anfitriòn posible. Es muy amable y sociable. Te haces sentir como a tu casa. Su habitaciòn es muy elegante y linda. Siempre lempia y en orden. Recomendada!!

I had a fantastic stay at Pilar's. She is extremely kind and a great resource. I would absolutely stay with her again!

Je suis arrivée un samedi matin très tôt chez Yolanda. Ma chambre était prête et elle m'a accueillie avec le sourire et m'a offert un petit déjeuné. Nos contacts auparavant avaient été chaleureux. L'appartement est spacieux et lumineux, avec 3 chambres réservées aux visiteurs. Ils se trouve dans une résidence fermée. On y est au calme. Yolanda vit seule dans cette maison mais sa sœur Anna et son fils Carlos sont très présents et tout aussi sympathiques. Il faut savoir que dans cette maison on se déchausse, et les chambres ne se ferment pas à clef. La résidence est dans la partie nouvelle de la ville, ce qui signifie qu'il faut marcher pour aller dans le centre historique, ou prendre un taxi, pas plus de 2$ Et il en passe tout le temps devant la résidence.

Some people are born hosts, Yolanda and Carlos her son fit this profile. It was a pleasure meeting with and talking with them. All our questions were answered accurately and quickly. The room we stayed in had a shared bath, however this was never an issue. Lots of hot water in the shower and all was very clean. This is a modern house in a gated complex as described. The upside is the secure location in the complex, however the downside is a bit longer walk or ride into the historic section of town. None was an issue for us however people should be aware of the bit longer travel.

Yolanda was an incredible host. I couldn't have asked for a better experience in Cuenca. She and her sister, Ana, are the friendliest, most welcoming people who truly care about your experience. Carlos, her son, is also very friendly and caring. He also teaches salsa classes in their house which was a highlight of my trip. The breakfasts are incredible: authentic, delicious and healthy. I had stomach problems the first few days of my stay and Yolanda was so helpful with taking me to the pharmacy and making me tea. Thank you Yolanda, Ana and Carlos you are the greatest and will be missed!!!

Yolanda is very kind and friendly and provides a delicious breakfast and coffee in the mornings! She is more then helpful with travel tips, and information about the area. The private room was spacious, comfy bed and private bathroom in a safe and secure neighborhood 10min walk from the old town. Would recommend to couples or solo travelers!

Informative, caring and welcoming host that facilitates plenty of fun stuff to do in Cuenca with experienced guides.

We stayed at Yolanda´s guesthouse for 4 nights and it was an absolute pleasure. The house is in a safe gated complex and the house itself is well furnished, clean and very comfortable. The night we arrived Yolanda was waiting to at the gate to greet us and made us feel very welcomed. Our bedroom was lovely, spacious, bright and clean, as was the bathroom. Breakfast each morning was a real treat -each day was a different menu, home cooked and delicious. We were genuinely sad to leave as Yolanda and her son Carlos made it feel like home.

Our stay in Yolanda's place was great! The house is in a safe residential neighbourhood only ten minutes walking from the old centre. The apartment is very clean and spacious. Yolanda is a wonderful host, she cooked a variety of delicious breakfasts every morning and made us feel like at home. Her son Carlos also was very nice and helpful during our stay. By far one of our best stay with airbb, we would definitely recommend it.

Pasamos (mi novio Yvon y yo) 4 dias maravillosas en la casa de Yolanda. Nos ha guatado particularmentes los desayunos ricos, sanos y de comida tipico y las conversaciones interesantes sobre muchas temas. Gracias a Yolanda y Carlos !

The place is nice, clean, and secure. There is a 24-hour guard in the front of the apartment building. Not that a guard is needed though, the place is in a nice neighborhood. It is about a fifteen-minute walk to get to the main square, so you will not need a taxi. The room and rest of the house are clean. I would definently stay again.

Anita es una gran anfitriona, siempre estuvo atenta con recomendaciones. Su hospedaje es realmente hermoso, un departamento muy limpio, seguro y con buen gusto en la decoración. La ubicación es perfecta, sobre la avenida principal, junto al río muy cerca del centro, bares, restaurantes y de las atracciones turisticas. Sin lugar a dudas es una gran opción de hospedaje, ampliamente recomendada. Por su puesto regresaré.

I had a nice time here! You can Walk to the Centre and its a not expensive, cute room and a quiet place. Anita was a very friendly host, she joined me for example the way to the centre by joining me. I would recommend this place.

good location and very clean place...recommended!!!

The reservation was canceled 7 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Clara and her family are perfect hosts - they always went out to help me and make sure I'm having a pleasant stay. The apartment is spacious, luminous and nicely decorated. The location is extremely safe and exclusive. I hope to come back and visit Clara and her family in the future!

Clarita y su mamá nos hicieron sentir como en casa, muy atentos, con un rico desayuno y buena conversación.

Mi experiencia fue exelente con clara en su hermoso departamento cama exelente comoda almoadas baño muy limpio exelente vista el desayuno super la platica y asesoria sobre cuenca exelente situado en un buen lugar cerca al centro el taxi al centro 2 dolares su estancia para desayunar nos encanto

Nice private room with private bathroom on second floor with small tv & Internet in the room. Awesome breakfast experience with large terrace and fruit salad herbal tea scrambled eggs bread assortment natural marmalade freshly squeezed juice and more the attitude of the host and her sweet family is wonderful and she was ready to get up early to get our breakfast ready even at 7 am That's why we came back & stayed twice so far!

Clara was an amazing host. She's kind, very lively, and made me feel so comfortable during my weekend stay. Her house is beautiful, her entire family was so warm and receptive, and the breakfast each morning was delicious. Clara and her family honestly made me feel like a visiting relative...with plenty of friendly conversation (which was great for practicing my spanish) and even inviting me to sit down to lunch with them. I seriously couldn't ask for a better Air BnB (URL HIDDEN) was such a memorable experience. Without a doubt, I would recommend Clara as a host. I will definitely look to stay with her again if I'm ever back in Cuenca.

We had a wonderful time staying at Clara's place. She was extremely helpful with tips about the city and made us feel welcome right from the start. The apartment is beautiful, the covered patio where we had breakfast every day had great views of Cuenca and out to the mountains and the breakfast was delicious. The apartment isn't quite in the centre of town - about 30mins walk from the main cathedral or 5-10mins in a taxi. I would certainly recommend Clara's apartment to anyone.

Clara was a great Host. She promptly replied to our request. This was our first Airbnb experience and it was great one. We arrived very early around 7 am and Calara made sure we can leave our bags in the living room and got us set up with WiFi so we can get some work done. She made sure we could Hot water for our tea and showed us the bathrooms etc. She promptly cleaned up our room as previous guests left and gave us the info about what to do etc. On next day we had to leave early for the SPa Visit, she made sure we had our breads. Jam and Fruit bag ready for us as we left at 6 am. We will definitely stay with Clara again. M Yusuf & Mumtaz Bora

Una gran experiencia, Super cómoda la propiedad, todo funcionaba perfecto. Super amables desde el primer momento hasta la salida. Lo recomiendo

This must be the best place to stay in Cuenca. It is close to the center but private as well. It has awesome views, it is very modern and Valeria is an EXCELLENT guest. She is super thoughtful and made sure my stay here was great. The apartment is brand new, super clean, very modern, the wifi is fast everywhere. It is seriously the best place I have seen in Cuenca, and trust me, I looked all over the city.
