Great place!
Lovely place in a great location. The beds were a little hard and there's no way to block the morning light.

Fantastic hotel
The staff were fantastic, they helped me see tour options and arranged the taxi pick up and drop off for the airport run. They explained where things were e.g. the metro station and where my pick up point was for a tour I was going on. They were really friendly and professional, always smiling and happy to help make my stay the best. The hotel itself was also amazing, the atmosphere was really good and friendly. I’ll recommend and will stay again if I’m ever back in Quito. It’s also very close to lots of attractions. Thank you for a great stay.

Perfect location in the historic old town. So quaint and beautiful and we felt it was a good value for the money. Went all the way to the top observation platform and flew my drone capturing the rolling majesty of Quito. You can walk to many attractions and lots of food options nearby. I want to stay again.

Very friendly, great location!
All the staff were exceptional. Breakfast was limited but okay. I requested a room with a view, but didn’t realize it was 6 floors up—with no elevator! Do I asked for a lower-level room and got one on the third floor. The next night I moved to a lower floor, however, it was very noisy. Good thing I had my ear plugs. The location is fantastic!

We loved our stay here. The staff was kind and friendly, even though we arrived very late at night (after 2AM). The beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast was ample. The location was also convenient for walking to the Historic Center. And the view from the rooftop was thrilling! We could see Cotopaxi in the distance. We would absolutely stay here again.

Generally the property was in a good location and the staff spoke English. The room was spacious. The bathroom could be cleaner.
There is no heating and during night gets cold, next day I asked for a small heater. People at reception are very friendly and eager to solve your problems. Breakfast is minimal

The staff of this location are exceptional. There was delicious made to order breakfast every morning. We relied heavily on the front desk staff since we speak little Spanish. They recommended lunch spots, called us taxis, and helped at every opportunity. The hotel is older but very clean. The front door is locked at all times and the front desk buzz you in and out. This added security helped us to feel safe at all times. I would definitely stay there again and recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a worry free stay.
