Stayed here for 4 nights in February 2011. Our first night, we stayed in the back room- Lonely Planet says to request them for the "fantastic river views." What it DOESN'T tell you is that the minute your upstairs neighbors come home, you will NEVER SLEEP. There are ultra-thin, ultra-loud floors- it was like giants stomping all night/early morning (and... More

I was staying there for 2 nights with a friend. One of the male staff there was beyond rude and not very pleasant. He works there around noon and he's usually the one that opens the door late at night. He also cleans the rooms and etc. One night we came back to the hostal around 12:30 pm and he... More

The property is in a very good location. The rooms are good, just no insulation so you hear everything. The breakfast is quite poor. Just a roll, coffee and watered down juice. The staff does not speak English so are not too helpful. More

There is almost nothing special about this hotel, except for the best bed we had in Ecuador. It's just a very nice place to stay, on a good location. Might be a bit overpriced. There is free internet (no wifi) available, incluing the use of a printer. More

Booked on hostelbookers for 2 nights in a twin room. On arrival they couldn't find our booking and the room we had booked was no longer available. They gave us a family room with a king bed and 2 singles which was massive and on the ground floor. Room had cable tv and bathroom with hot water. All okay until... More

Well, this is not Europe! So it would just be unfair expecting high standards. The hostal was quiet, cheap and it's not far from the city center. Helpful staff. Bads: Internet did not work in my room. Cleanliness could have been better. But all in all: nothing to worry about and considering the fair pricing: Good value. More

My husband and I spent one night here and loved it. Very cute place, clean sheets and towels, cable TV, hot water, shampoo and soap, internet, lovely dining area, nice breakfast, beautiful view, perfect location, helpful staff. No complaints whatsoever. More

I stayed here for 1 night recently and checked out immediately after. Very grumpy owners. No smiles. Constantly reminding you check out time etc... Loads of stains on bed sheets and pilows. Great breakfast with fantastic views thou. Terrible value for money. More

Casa del Barranco is a comfortable, friendly little hotel perched on a hillside overlooking the Tomebamba River in Cuenca. Although most of the rooms look inward to the indoor courtyard, we had a room with a great view toward the river. They served a nice breakfast, had a computer linked to the internet for the use of the guests, and... More
