In the hostel you won't find a hostel, you will find a family. Juan David and Milena are the best person u will find. I suppose to stay 3 weeks in Cuenca and I stay 3 months just because this guys. The community in the hostel it's really great, the vibes are really amazing. If a could choose one place to stay is the hostel. Love u Jd and Mile . ❤️

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue muy grata, desde el inicio me sentí como en casa, las tareas eran clara, además el lugar está lleno de personas geniales y con buenas energías, siempre se respetaron los horarios, razón por la cual tuve tiempo de explorar la bella ciudad de cuenca ya que la ubicación del hostel es a 10 minutos del casco histórico.

La experiencia en el hostel ha sido maravillosa: un buen ambiente laboral, con compañeros geniales, con los que poder compartir charlas, paseos y comidas y Juan David que lidera de una manera estupenda, preocupado en que el trabajo salga correctamente y los huéspedes se sientan cómodos, mientras demuestra mucha cercanía y hace lo necesario para que te sientas como en casa. Aunque fuese poco tiempo, conseguí sentirme muy feliz durante mi estancia, despidiéndome con un “volveré” que espero poder hacer realidad en algún otro momento. Gracias, y mil veces gracias, por lo compartido.
