    Great location and good value with a pool and hot tub

    Liked : The location is a few blocks from the termale I liked to visit so I could walk over early in the morning. They have a pool you can use for free and a hot tub you can pay for. The roof has a nice view with a kitchen and places inside and out to sit.

    Disliked : Free coffee would be nice

    Great value

    Liked : We had a nice, large room with a balcony view to the waterfall.

    Disliked : Be aware that soap is not included in the bathroom. The door lock had a deadbolt but whenever we used it we had trouble removing the key so we just used the latch. You can secure the latch with a thumbscrew when you are in the room. We never felt unsafe anyway.

    Great place when on a budget!

    Liked : The location was great, right near the center of town and with a great view of the waterfall from the terrace! The terrace was also beautiful as well as the parking area.

    Disliked : We had some noisy neighbors, and the hot tub cost extra to use and requires a minimum of 4 people. We wanted to get massages but there were no masseuses available, but luckily we could get them for the same price right next door.

    Best Hostal In Baños

    Liked : The whole fmly who run this hostal are very friendly & hospitable especially Veronica. She not only answers all my questions but also helps me to book a room in Cuenca. The room is clean daily & fresh towel change everyday. It always smells nice inside the room. The dining room with the waterfall view is the best. Hostal is near the center but very quiet.

    Disliked : Everything is good. Totally recommended.
