• El Cafecito is centrally located, three blocks from the "Parque Calderón" (The main plaza). At short distances to points of interest such as the old and new Cathedral, the Tomembamba river, and its mulititude of other cultural sites.
• Arriving to the Cuenca airport during the day with little baggage, you can use the bus system. From the outside of the airport to the historical centre take the bus marked "Trigales". Once in the centre check your map or ask someone the way to El Cafecito. It is at Luis Cordero and Honorato Vazquez.
