A really good place to stay in Cuenca with the only downside being the busy road and the extensive traffic noise that goes with it. The downstairs cafe is a gem and although breakfast isn’t included at this hostel, I really recommend having breakfast or even dinner at this quality cafe … the food and coffee are excellent! We enjoyed a night of escapism in the lounge watching movies on HBO. An easy walk into the city centre right past the Inca ruins, along the beautiful river.

I originally had booked here for four nights but didn’t end up staying even one. The location was a hike from the city center which made me unsettled as a solo female traveler and my intuition gave me weird vibes. There was road construction going on right in front of the hostel that was extremely loud and shaking the entire building. The receptionist was super accommodating with reimbursing me for 3/4 of my nights which I appreciated.
