We find it is pretty hard to get to and although popular, pretty empty at that moment. Just before leaving, we ask about the new year party, When Swenja asks the guy the guy says<br />The guy: New Year Party is on 30th of December. We are celebrating it one day earlier.<br />Swenja: Why are you celebrating on 30th and not 31st?<br />The guy: 31st is sunday. We are closed on sundays<br />!!!!! =)<br /><br />-----------------------------------<br /><br />Getting a towel in the damn hotel:<br />Position: I am in Cuenca, and in my hotel room. My problem is my all towels are in the laundry. And the hostel did not give towels either. The hostel reception is on the sixth floor of a building and the rooms are on the 3rd floor.<br />I decide that I need to ask for a towel, and go up to 6th floor and ask the reception guy.<br />U: I need a towel<br />R: The towels are not included in your price.<br />I hear that, go back to my room. Thinking I will just have a shower once I have my stuff back from laundry. Thinking again, I change my mind and decide to pay for the towel. I go back up to 6th floor. Tired, I ask the reception guy.<br />U: I want to rent a towel<br />R: We do not rent towels here!!!!?????<br />I go back to my room climbing the stairs down again=)<br /><br />-----------------------------------------------<br /><br /><a href="http://umutcuencaecuador.blogspot.com/"><-Previous</a> <a href="http://umutecuadorculturedrops.blogspot.com/">Next-></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4084700248045326574-2299687254638371146?l=umutperfectlyecuadorianstories.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>umuthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11876423563112200036noreply@blogger.com2
