“Splendid stay”
The hostel is amazingly situated next to the river with great views from the terrace and in a quiet area. The decor is very beautiful and artistic with many murals and I loved the design of the hotel was very easy to navigate as well as fun to access from many points. It is well equipped with a library, pool table, cinema, co-working space, kitchen, restaurant, many hang out areas with sofas, yoga/dance space and many toilets. The staff is very approachable and nice, and having arrived very early in the morning and left very late in the night, they were helpful and let me store my big backpack behind their desk and I had full use of the space, facilities and WiFi, as well as calling me a taxi. The dorm was very spacious and quiet, with a lamp, plug socket and curtains in each bed, as well as lockers. The shared bathroom was clean and always had toiletries and toilet paper. It was by far the best hostel I stayed in and at such a bargain price, with breakfast included whith lots of choices! I definitely want to return and would recommend!

I had a really good experience staying at Selina Cuenca. My flight was very delayed so my arrival was much later than planned and the staff were very helpful in allowing me to organise a late check out. After such a long time spent travelling I was so grateful for their helpfulness. The accommodation is beautifully decorated, clean and spacious. The breakfast was great and I loved the terrace. Thank you for a great stay!

The stuff really want to help you and have a good English. They did a lot for us to change our room and give us a real room like on photos and I,m very appreciate them! Clean, large, good furnished room and every day cleaning. There are also a heater!

“Not worth the money. Room about 1/3 of the size as what's pictured.”
The room pictured online for the single is about the 3x the size of the one I got. Came on Friday and they were blaring Reggaetón music past midnight. Cleaning lady used way too much harsh chemical cleaner on my room the next day, so much that it gave me a headache and made my eyes water. Had to ask them for a fan, but it didn't do anything. I booked for a week, and had to leave (even after they moved me into another, even smaller, room) after 3 days. It's rated as a 3-star but has the vibe of a youth hostel. If you're 30+yo, I'd find something else, unless you want to be around people in their early 20s.
