I called before I arrived and explained that I'm a very light sleeper and needed a very quiet room. I was assured they had a great room for me. I arrived exhausted and looked at the room buried in the back and it seemed okay. No sooner than I checked in and crawled in bed did the echo chamber affect began.

The place is run by a bunch of 20 somethings with a bit of a frat party atmosphere. I called the desk and asked for a fan. She said she would look for one and call me back. I waited and waited and waited. Nothing. I call again and spoke to someone else. He said they had no fan. I again explained how exhausted I was and how the noise echoed through the room.

Restaurants, parks, new town, the historic area 89 steps to Long Street are only a 10 minute walk away. There is so much to see and do in Cuenca and this is a great location to stay while you...
