Boutique Hotel in der Innenstadt

Boutique Hotel, nur zwei Straßen vom Plaza Grande in Quito entfernt. Von Inhaberin geführt, die auch das Frühstück macht. Schöner Altbau, in dem manchmal einheimische Künstler (vor 21 Uhr) üben. In der Altstadt ist der Verkehr etwas lauter, Barbezahlung ist günstiger als Kreditkarte.

Muy buena experiencia

La experiencia fue placentera, el hostal se encuentra en una excelente ubicación, a dos cuadras de la Plaza Grande. Un lugar tranquilo y seguro, con restaurantes, tiendas y todos los sitios de interés del centro de Quito a unos pasos. El hostal es sencillo, cómodo y limpio. No esperen lujos de los hoteles de línea, pero si amabilidad y trato personalizado. Doña Alicia, Bill y Jefferson nos ayudaron en todo momento en nuestro viaje e hicieron de nuestra estadía una muy buena experiencia.

Convenient location, big rooms

We had a private room with two beds, and there was plenty of space for two of us and our luggage. The location is very central to Old Town, but that means it is very loud. The windows are old (like they are in every other building in this city) so all of the noise comes in from the busy pedestrian street. You would be hard pressed to find a quite hotel in this city though, so I can't fault this place for being a bit loud. The hostel itself was very quiet inside, we never heard other people being loud or partying. Breakfast was simple but good (eggs and toast with fresh juices, coffee and tea). There is also a very cool balcony that offers incredible city views. The location is great if you want to explore all of the Old Town by foot. Staff was great about helping us organize taxis to the airport and bus stations. Be prepared though - only some of the staff speaks English. Mateo was awesome and helped us with pretty much everything!

Great hotel right in the historical center

The staff were great and easy to communicate with both before and during my stay. The location of the hotel was perfect for exploring the historical center of Quito. My room could have used some simple cosmetic upgrades, but it was very comfortable, and the hotel itself is beautiful. The free breakfast was also delicious and substantial.

Leuk, authentiek en gezellig hostel

Gezellig hotel met vriendelijk en erg behulpzaam personeel. Ontbijt was fantastisch, onze familiekamer ruim en locatie super. Vrij veel herrie van de straat, maar dat was te verwachten gezien de locatie. Het gebouw is vrij oud, maar erg sfeervol en we hebben er ons erg thuis gevoeld in de 5 dagen Quito. Tips van Mateus en het regelen van vervoer hebben we ook erg gewaardeerd.
