Family hotels and homes in Cachanlo de Sidcay

Simple, modern apartment. Clean. Calm neighborhood with shops and restaurants. Could walk to the city. Helpful agent.

I've really enjoyed my stay at the Balcón del Arte Hotel, after booking my room I instantly received a message confirming all the hotel details (hotel name, address, contact details) and on the day of arrival I was greeted by a very lovely staff member (I'm sorry, I don't recall the name!). I received a key to my room as well as the front door, which is very helpful as it allows you to come and go without disturbing anyone. The room itself was clean, the bed was comfortable, bedding was warm AND... There's hot water in the sink and the shower! All my priorities have been met, so I can't complain at all haha Another bonus was that despite it being 6 degrees Celsius at night during my stay, this has somehow been the warmest hotel room I've stayed in whilst visiting Cuenca, which was a nice surprise, especially as there's no heating. Overall, this hotel offers the perfect location, perfect facilities, perfect care/treatment aaand the perfect price. Thank you so much and I will definitely be back! P.s. Regarding some things mentioned in the comments of previous guests: - Someone mentioned light coming in through the curtains; the light in the corridor is turned off at night, so although it can shine through the curtains when it's on in the early evening, it's not a problem during the night. My room was pitch black. - Someone also mentioned being concerned about the bathroom windows leading out into the hallway, because someone could potentially look inside... I don't think that's something to worry about, the windows are quite high up and someone would have to be very tall, or stand on something, in desperation to do that. 😅

Booked very last minute but the host was so helpful and accommodating. it's located in a nice neighborhood and the building is very modern with secure parking for our motorcycle. This is behind a high gate and electric fence. The apartment is very clean and spacious. The shower is lovely and hot and high pressure, one of the best we've had in Ecuador. It was only an overnight stop for us but it was very restful. Only feedback would be the checkout time is early at 10am. Most our at least 11am. Also it's needs some thicker curtains in the bedrooms as the street lights remain on all night.

Particular shoutout to the staff at Itza Hotel, they were so helpful with all sorts of things. From restaurant and activity recommendations, to booking spa treatments, and sorting out after hours snacks. They were so kind and lovely!
