My husband and I were very fortunate, our last day in Cuenca, to find a delightful, unfurnished 3 bedroom/2bath apartment for a great price in a secure building near the river within walking distance of the historic district. We now find it's taking longer to wrap up our affairs in the states, and we won't be able to move until November. We have permission to sub-lease it and if anyone knows someone with a need for a short term rental, feel free to contact me.
I appreciate so much, all the terrific information provided by this forum. Thank you all.
