Overall, my stay at Socialtel Cuenca was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, being close to the main Plaza De San Francisco and other attractions. However, the noise levels on weekends were quite disruptive, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. While the facilities were decent, with a great outdoor terrace and fast wifi, I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the bathrooms and the limited kitchenware available.

My stay at Socialtel Cuenca was quite an experience. The beautiful building, filled with art and located by the river, definitely exceeded my expectations. However, the noise from nearby clubs on weekends made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Overall, I appreciated the central location and friendly staff, but the noise and some cleanliness issues were definitely downsides.

I had a lovely stay at Socialtel Cuenca, enjoying the beautiful architecture and great central location. The staff was friendly and helpful, though it was a bit challenging to communicate without Spanish language skills. I appreciated the spacious suite and the charming river view, but the loud music from nearby bars on weekends made it hard to sleep. Breakfast offerings were decent but could be improved.

My stay at Socialtel Cuenca was nice, with great amenities and a fantastic location by the river. However, my experience was slightly marred by some service issues and the kitchen's lack of supplies during peak times.
