It is an upgrade from last week's hostel stay in Baños, which seemed like a dormitory-setting, but it was exactly what we expected for a $16/night place, with plenty of budget left over to spend on other activities, eating and drinking.

Our Cuenca "Home": Hostal Posada del Angel
Hostal Posada del Angel is located in the historic district of Cuenca (corner of Simon Bolivar and Estevez de Toral) about 6 blocks west from the main plaza. We found the place had good reviews through TripAdvisor, Hostel World, and Hostels.com; and we agree it is a comfortable place with nice large rooms in a charmingly, historic building. It is costing us $56/night for 2 people in a double-room with private bath. It is a HUGE room with plenty of room for a family. The cost comes with breakfast and the usual hotel amenities such as towels, hot water, cleaning service, laundry service, and free Wifi is available everywhere on the property.
