Hostal Hogar Cuencano Reviews

This was an excellent hostel! The facilities were spotlessly clean, the security was perfect, and the value was amazing. We're especially thankful for the kind staff that helped us after we came back all muddy from a rainy hike in Cajas National Park. I highly recommend this hostel.

It being low season, we were upgraded from a 4 bed dorm to a 3 bed private room at no extra cost. There was access to a small balcony right by our room, which offered a nice view onto Calle Largo. The staff was friendly, the facilities (kitchen, toilet) were decent and the location of the hostel, though not in the center, is near Calle Largo with its cobblestone streets, little cafes and the river so it is a quaint neighbourhood to explore by foot. And it is a 5 min walk to the main attractions.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Good location with tiendas and restaurants close by. Rooms cleaned daily.

The hostel as such was a good place, good location, What irked me was they promised the laundry in 3 hrs and we asked them to take 7, but we got it only after 24 hrs!!!! Lucky for us, we didn't have to leave soon. But yeah, wouldnt want to stay there again. P.S. The restrooms reminded me of the makeshift ones in the war fields for some reason.

We stayed here for a night, and the hotel was fine for that. Wouldn't stay here by myself, as you don't really have a chance to meet people. The shower was nice and hot. WiFi worked on my girlfriend's iPhone, but not on my laptop, so it seems to be a bit flakey. You can go around the block to the Coffee Tree to have nice food, coffee and working WiFi.

This hostel was in a perfect location for close proximity to sites in the city. The private room was really updated, clean and comfortable. Very quiet place so that was appreciated and staff were very helpful.

Hogar Cuencana is a great place to stay, organized, VERY clean and the staff is really, really nice and friendly! Only thing I was missing was a common room and bigger kitchen, but all in all, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there, great value for money!

Enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and clean room.

A wonderful one. I will return to it next time

The hostel on the whole was above average. The room was nice and the facilities were ok. I do though have to mention the staff as they weren't very helpful and in the evening the girl at the front desk would blast the same Basshunter track through her already broken laptop speakers maybe 20-30 times in a row EVERY DAY! I'm all for sharing your love for wonderful music but Basshunter's bad techno on repeat doesn't do it for me. Other than that you'll get your moneys worth

hostel needs to add a double private ensuite option to hostelworld to avoid confusion and charges upon arrival. Booked the twin private ensuite that has no private ensuite and charged more than the hostelworld booking price

Quiet, room cleaned & bed made up every day, central location with plenty of places to eat or shop within easy walking distance, friendly staff though not all speak English.

A quiet homey place. I had a single room with bath on the top floor, very clean, spacious, with a great shower and hot water. The hostel has wifi, and while it worked on the owners computer in my room, it didn't with mine ,which they were apologetic for. There's no common room, and despite the photos on their website, no kitchen for guests to use if that's important for you. Not a g great place to meet people, though close to restaurants, river. I'd recommend it esp. for older travellers.

Great location and comfortable beds, but the lack of hot water and a working Wi-Fi connection were let-downs.
