“Great place to relax and meet people”
Beautiful courtyard garden where you can sit during the day with cool, relaxing music. Many walls are decorated with wonderful murals, painted by different artists and relating to Cuenca and the people of the area. The bistro and bar are popular with locals and ex-pats living in Cuenca. The food is tasty and beautifully presented. There is often live music in the evenings from local or visiting bands. Friendly and helpful staff.

“Great hostel and location, very social bar and restaurant”
Great location, only 300 m from the cathedral and main square and river in opposite direction. Food was additional but excellent and great value and on the Wednesday night there were a couple of bands playing who were great. I stayed in a private room with en-suite shower, water nice and hot. Good internet.

“Would recommend to other people. Friendly staff, great location”
The location was excellent, right in the centre. I was in a dorm but during off season so it was just two of us in the dorm and it was very quiet. The bar downstairs is good with nice cocktails
