This place is cold. No hot water in most rooms. The greeting area/office is littered with bicycles and other items that should have been in storage. My partner had the shower head fall off and hit him in the head. Two days later the shower was fixed. We could have used the room next door for a shower but that... More

This hostel is very clean and cosy. It is located in the city centre, in the walking distance from everything. It is an old building, but the bathrooms are renovated and decorated as modern style.The rooms are personally decorated, each room is different. The doughter (Samantha Ordoñez) is an artist and her ateljee is upstairs. The breakfast is included in... More

Saw this place reviewed in an old edition of Lonely Planet, so I thought I'd give it a go while I was in Cuenca. The location seemed okay, near the plaza de armas and a few decent restaurants nearby. Big mistake. It is dirty, there is broken furniture and missing light bulbs in the rooms, the ceiling leaks, there is... More

Arrived later in the night, greeted by the owner, very warm, friendly and showed me the layout of the building. It's older but had a cozy, minimalist well designed feel! Nice courtyards with small but functional kitchen to use, just add your own food. Bedding was clean, warm. Rooms have a unique feel, not cookie cutter. Since owner lives here... More

The worst hotel we had during our trip. Notice: during our three night stay we were the only guests. The whole hotel was very cold. Outside it was much nice. The rooms had just the basic furniture and were pretty smale. The matraze was so hard that all of us and back problems on the next day. You were not... More

Nothing much to say about it. Functional and conveniently located. Very quiet. Kitchen is functional but cramped. Baths in those rooms with a bath were squeezed into odd locations. Very cramped but still functions. Hot water fine if you take a quick shower. Room security is primitive but front door is always locked giving some measure of security. Price wise... More

Being asked to pay for a room before I see always makes me suspicious - however because this place was recommened in all the major guides, I presumed this was just a quirk of the owner. However, I was wrong. In Casa Naranja, the owner probably has to demand payment in order to stop her guests fleeing from the place... More
