This property is very noisy. At 6,30 AM the receptionist plays music and it can be heard in the whole hotel. Also, my room smells as sewerage because it was not properly aired. Look for another hotel!

They lock the main doors, so when you go out for the evening for dinner and come back, you have to ring the buzzer several times and call and wait to be let in. The property details advertise that it has a water dispenser and laundry facilities, and it has neither,…also doesn’t really have hot water. The hot water heater was being fixed the night we arrived, and even after it was fixed, there was only hot water enough for one of us to have a shower, the second night, same thing and the third night. all the sounds echo up from the lobby and common areas, and and there are get-togethers and noisy kids and running in the hallways until midnight, followed by a domestic violence sounding situation at 3 AM. The place is a zoo with little to no property management and the woman that either owns it or runs it is rude It makes no effort to bridge the language gap even when you’re trying to, or any assistance whatsoever. This place is run like you’re just staying at someone’s house, except that you’re paying…not like a business.

Peligro de hotel. Al llegar al hotel, presenté mi reserva y la recepcionista me dijo que no trabajaban con Hotels.com, a pesar de que le mostré la reserva en la app y una copia impresa, y también le demostré que podía hacer nuevas reservas a través de la página web y la app para el mismo hotel. La recepcionista cambiaba de tema constantemente y me decía que podían hacer una nueva reserva, pero por casi el doble de precio. Insistí, pero se negaron a respetar mi reserva. Esto es una estafa típica: ofrecen un precio atractivo en la página web, pero al llegar al hotel, dicen que no pueden alojarte, que no usan la plataforma para poder cobrarte más después. Inmediatamente me fui de ese hotel y me alojé en uno decente.

Cet hôtel était ma première expérience d'un hôtel en Équateur et à Cuenca. Personnel très très serviable, suite présidentielle avec immense douche et tres grand bain tourbillon fonctionnel avec amplement d'eau chaude et un fort débit. Tout était propre (j'ai de hauts standards). Situé tout juste à côté d'un genre de marché aux puces, de nombreux commerces, et commerces de rues non-achalants (comparativement aux commerçants de Santa Elena). Je suis tombé immédiatement en amour avec Cuenca et ses habitants. La ville est vivante, propre et sécuritaire. Séjour parfait ou presque. Bémols : le papier de toilette est très rude (comme des scott towels en plus rude!) et j'ai préféré aller m'en acheter du doux à 40m d'ici. Étant donné la grandeur de la suite, une 2e poubelle à proximité du lit aurait été pratique. Je n'ai pas hésité à séjourner une journée supplémentaire pour profiter de Cuenca et du confort de cette suite, incluant son confortable lit queen. Top notch en bon québécois!

Estadía muy regular, pero tienen puntos a mejorar

Mi estadía tuvo varios percances que no dejaron que evaluara con mejor puntuación al establecimiento. Si bien tienen cosas a favor como que el personal me ayudó con un par de solicitudes, se esfuerzan por dar buen servicio en el desayuno y la limpieza en general estuvo bien, tuve varios inconvenientes. La mayoría de las habitaciones son internas, por lo que se escucha TODO lo de la casa. En la primera noche hubo personas que se quedaron en recepción hasta las 11:30pm y escuchaba toda la conversación y la segunda noche en una habitación del tercer piso se quedaron escuchando música a todo volumen hasta la 1:30am y también podía escuchar todo. El día del check out tenía vuelo a las 7:30am por lo que debía salir a las 5:45am del hotel y estuve desde las 5:30am hasta las 6:10am buscando, tocando la puerta, la campana y hasta gritando para que alguien me abriera el hotel para salir, que PELIGRO que no haya nadie en recepción durante la noche ni un mensaje de qué hacer en esta u otras circunstancias (que tal fuera una emergencia) y por último, desde la primera noche el datafono estuvo "descargado" y no me podían cobrar, y al check out cuando estaba con afán tampoco estaba cargado. Por último, al parecer el hotel está ubicado en una de las zonas más peligrosas de Cuenca, según lo que me dijeron un par de taxistas quienes no me recomendaban caminar sola por la zona (hay que tenerlo en cuenta). Tienen una buena infraestructura, pero muchas cosas por mejorar.
